He was one of the first few who opposed the social stigma towards the untouchable castes in his era, with his sankeertanas explaining that the relationship between God and human is the same irrespective of the latters' color, caste and financial status, in beautiful yet powerful usage of words in his song "Brahmam Okkate Parabrahmam Okkate." In his later keertanas, he espouses subjects such as morality, dharma and righteousness. His songs in the "Sringaara" genre worship Bhagwaan Venkateswara by describing his amorous and romantic adventures of Venkateswara and Alamel Manga, while others describe the Bhakti of his devotees.
His songs are classified into the Adhyaatma (spiritual) and Sringaara (romantic) sankeertanas genres. In the poems, he praises Venkateswara, describes his love for him, argues and quarrels with the Lord, confesses the devotee's failures and apprehensions, and surrenders himself to Venkateshwara.

Annamacharya lived for 94 years until Phalguna Bahula Dwadasi (12th day after full moon) in the year Dhundhubhi (February 23, 1503).Īnnamacharya is said to have composed as many as 32,000 sankeertanas (songs) on Bhagwaan Govinda Venkateswara, of which only about 12,000 are available today.Īnnamacharya considered his compositions as floral offerings to Bhagwaan Govinda. The Tallapaka compositions are considered to have dominated and influenced the structure of Carnatic music compositions. Their son, Pedda Tirumalacharya, and grandson, Tallapaka Chinnayya, were also composers and poets. His wife, Thimmakka, had written Subhadra Kalyanam, and is considered the first female poet in Telugu literature. He is widely regarded as the Pada-kavita Pitaamaha (grand old man of song-writing) of the Telugu language.Īnnamacharya was born on Vaisakha Suddha Pournami in the year Sarwadhari (May 9, 1408) in Tallapaka, a village in current day Kadapa district of Andhra Pradesh, India. Sri Annamacharya is remembered for his saintly life, and is honoured as a great Bhakta/devotee of Bhagwaan Govinda by devotees and saintly singers. The musical form of the keertana songs that he composed have strongly influenced the structure of Carnatic music compositions, which are still popular among Carnatic music concert artists. Sri Tallapaka Annamacharya (Telugu: శ్రీ తాళ్ళపాక అన్నమాచార్య) (or Annamayya) (– February 23, 1503) was the official songmaster of the Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, and a Telugu composer who composed thousands of keertana songs, many of which were in praise of Lord Sri Venkateswara Swami.

P.S: "TELUGU - Italian of the East" - Niccolo Da Conti, 15th Century Italian explorer She is to us the representative of God, as God is the mother of the universe.- Swami Vivekananda
"In India the mother is the center of the family and our highest ideal. He is Padmanabha (one with lotus at navel), moving like a boy amongst us. He is the divine gem in the ocean of milk. He is the sapphire (Indraneelam), our protector, dwelling in Sri Venkatadri (Seshachalam). He is like the topaz (pushyaragam) on the heads of Kaliya (serpent). He is lotus-eyed (Kamalaksha), our saviour. He is the cat's eye (vydooryam) in between conch (Sankham) and discus (Chakram). He is the agate (gomedhikamu) that lifted Govardhana mountain. He is the coral (pagadamu) of beautiful Rukmini. Dwelling in everyone, He is our little Krishna.|| He is the emerald (paccha) of the three worlds (lokas), radiating light. He is the vajrayudham (all-powerful diamond like weapon) to the evil Kamsa. He is the manikyam (ruby) of all gopikas. He is the lovely toddler (pearl) of Yashoda, playing in her front yard. In this lovely song, Annamacharya describes the beauty of little Krishna, comparing him with the various precious stones like diamond, ruby, sapphire, etc.
