സ്നേഹപിതാവിൻ ഭവനത്തിൽ നാമെല്ലാവരുമണയുന്നു
Entrance Hymn for Holy Qurbana
Music : Jerry Amaldev
Lyrics : Fr. Jacob Chakkumkal

സ്നേഹപിതാവിൻ ഭവനത്തിൽ
നാമെല്ലാവരുമണയുന്നു
മോക്ഷതമായ വിരുന്നിനായ്
രക്ഷക സവിധെ അണയുന്നു

അന്തിമഭോജന ശാലയിലും
കാൽവരിമാമല വേദിയിലും
യേശു പിതാവിന്നേകിയതാം
യാഗാവർത്തന വേളയിതാ

സുവിശേഷ വിളക്ക് ഞങ്ങളുടെ ഇരുളടഞ്ഞ മിഴികളിൽ കൊളുത്തി, ഞങ്ങളെ ജീവിപ്പിച്ചവനേ ,
ഞങ്ങളുടെ പിതാവ് തോമാശ്ലീഹാ യോടൊപ്പം നിന്നെ ഞങ്ങൾ മഹത്വപ്പെടുത്തുന്നു.
നിന്റെ വെളിപാടിനെ അവനൊപ്പം, സംശയമേതുമില്ലാതെ ഞങ്ങൾ പ്രഘോഷിക്കുന്നു.
ഇടവിടാതെ ഞങ്ങൾ ഉരുവിടുന്നു. മാർ വാലാഹ് മാർ വാലാഹ് !
Note:
Here is the starting of a new chapter in the history of Syriac chants in India. A team of young priests from the St. Thomas Forane Church associated with Dharmaram Vidyakshetram in Bengaluru worked diligently to create this video, in preparation for the feast of St. Thomas the Apostle, on 3 July 2021.
The concept came from Fr. Cyriac Madathil, CMI, Fr. Rejo Kalathil, CMI, and Fr. Nibin Areekathazhe, CMI. Dr. Thomas Kollamparambil, CMI and Rithin Chilambattusseril, a friend of the CMIs, a doctoral student, and a disciple of a great Syriac Scholar, Koonammakkal Thoma Kathanar (see Aramaic Project -16 https://youtu.be/N4cFJYlqZqo) wrote the lyrics.
Fr. Joseph J. Palackal, CMI made the melodic design and we hear the song in the voice of Br. Joby Vadayattukuzhy, CMI.
St. Thomas Forane Church, under the leadership of Fr. Cyriac Madathil and with the assistance of Br. Thomas Kapil, CMI, and Mr. Joju George took care of the production.

This is probably the first attempt to create a new song in Syriac in the Syro-Malabar Church in the twenty-first century. The production team has opened up new possibilities for the younger generation of Syro-Malabar Catholics. Nobody ever thought this was possible.
Those who were contemplating writing the final chapter on the history of Syriac chants in India have to put their project on hold.

That the initiative came from the CMI priests and a young man who is a friend of the CMIs is no coincidence. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the Carmelites spent a lot of time and resources to serve the Syriac heritage of the Syro Malabar Church. Currently, Fr. Cyriac Madathil, CMI and the St. Thomas Forane Church are preparing to launch an online course on the Syriac language on July, 3rd, the feast of the Apostle Thomas.
The world will continue to watch how the new generation of CMIs is holding on to the legacy. God bless the team.
