Man proposes God disposes

Posted by dinesh

Here is a song by Shri Purandaradasaru which narrates that 'Man proposes God disposes'.
In Kannada there is a saying 'tAnoMdu bagedare daivavoMdu bageyitu'. Whatever may be the man's wish,
but without the God's wish nothing will be successful.

harichitta satya namma hari chitta satya

Meaning of the song:

God's wish (haricitta) is only the truth (satya)
Nothing (naDeyadu) will be materialised (lavalEsha-even a bit)
by man's (nara) wish (cittake)

Man wishes (naracitta) to have (bayasOdu) good wife (sudati/wife) and children (makkaLa bhAgya)
but failure (Agadiruvudu) to get marry (maduve) is the wish of God (haricittavayya)

Man wishes (naracitta) to have (bayasOdu) horse (kudure), chariot (aMdaNa), elephants (Ane)
but God's wish (haricittavayya) is he should become pedestrian (pAdacAriyAgOdu)

Man wishes (naracitta) to travel (yAtreya) so many places (vidha vidha)
but by God's wish (haricitta) he will fell sick (odagi baruva rOga)

Man wants (bayasOdu naracitta) to donate (dAnava) always (sadA) food/rice (anna) to others
but he will cry (aLuvudu) for food (udarakke) by God's wish (haricittavayya)

Man wants (naracitta) to rule (ALabEkeMbudu) the city/world (dharaNiyanu)
but he will become servant (sEvisuvudu) to serve others (parara) by God's wish (haricittavayya)

Man wishes (bayasOdu naracitta) to have Purandara vittala
but to come out (kaLeyOdu) of agonies (duritava) is the God's wish (haricittavayya)
