Today I share with you the song ‘Ehi Annappoorne’, a composition of Muthuswamy Dikshitar, in Raga Punnagavarali. This was performed at The Music Academy in 2019 for Athulya Assisted Living, an organisation that does a great service to Senior Citizens. The song addresses Goddess Annapoorani who adorns the temple at Varanasi.  

The preceding shloka from Annapoornashtakam means “Please sustain me with nourishment and food”.  Many people chant this shloka every day before having their meal. 
'Annapoorne Sada Poorne Shankara Prana Vallabhe
Gnana Vairagya Sidhyartham Bhiksham Dehi Cha Parvathi'
