Swaminatha Paripalaya is a Sanskrit Carnatic Classical 'Kriti' originally composed by Muthuswamy Dikshitar in raga Nattai (Adi Tala).  In this alternative version, the band has applied a funky guitar patch throughout with western drums while combining Indian elements such as the mridangam and flute. Check it out...a must listen for Carnatic fusion lovers.

Lyrics and meaning (from karnAtik.com (http://www.karnatik.com/c1002.shtml))

pallavi:

brOva bhAramA raghurAmA bhuvanamella nIvai nannokani

anupallavi:

shrI vAsudEva anDakOTula gukSiNi yuncakOlEdA nannu

caraNam:

kalashAmbudhilO dayatO namarulakai adigAka gOpi
kalakai koNDa letta lEdA karuNAkara tyAgarAjuni

Meaning:
Oh Karunaakaraa (a name for Vishnu), is it a heavy burden for you to protect a single soul like me? You are the whole universe itself and as Krishna showed it all to be in your stomach. Have you not lovingly borne for the sake of the Devas the whole weight of Mount Mandara when the ocean was churned, and have you not lifted Mount Govardhan for the sake of Gopis?
