To what profound penance owe you this boon, O! Yashotha! Translation of Oothukkadu Venkata Subbha Iyer’s enna thavam seithanai – yashOthA by T. Wignesan To what profound penance owe you this boon, O! YashOthA! ® That He – the ParaBrahmman – who bestrides the Universe Should call you “Mother!” To what profound penance owe you this boon, O! YashOthA! He who created the two times seven worlds Whom you may lift up breast-feed and cradle in your arms Such as to drive even Brahmman and Indhiran to stark envy (Yes) He whom you tied to the large stone mortar Muffled and reduced to utter beggary, O! Mother! To what profound penance owe you this boon, O! YashOthA! What Sanakkadi Saints attained through self-mortifying Endurance You obtained that purity with ease just by being made His Mother!

The Hindu Pantheon is filled with some 33 million « gods », by some counts, but Krishna outshines them all. In the Hindu religious tradition, the real and the mythological confound themselves, or rather the poet enhances the real through his imagination, with the result we are made to believe that the Supreme Being has a worldly life in which his worshippers may interact with Him. This poem is yet another example. YashOthA of the herdsman caste is entrusted with the infant Krishna, and as His foster-mother, she is the object of envy even by gods. The poem has been set to music in the Carnatic mode (with ragas and thalas) and sung by several able exponents of the art. Check out versions by Sudha Ragunathan or by Karthik and a good many others on the Internet (Abirami). © T. Wignesan – Paris, 2015.
