nijaysa santapsaya madhuryena-visiya nihisena bhartsita kacchapi (vina) yaya sa
The melody of whose words put to shame the kacchapi (i.e., vina of Sarasvati)
The AmrK says: The vina of Visvavasu is named Brhati, that of Tumburu, Kalavati, that of Narada, Mahati and that of Sarasvati Kacchapi
The desire for hearing the vina is due to the sweet melody coming out indistinctly from the svaras, sadja, etc., though there is no clear reception of the sound of the letters. Kacchapi, being the vina of Sarasvati, speaks like the parrot and the resembles cuckoo speech which is a little distinct, along with melody. But no doubt, with distinct utterance the sweeter melody of her words excels all musical instruments.
I am certain if she were to talk to me ( I hope she would!) I would find it totally outta this world :) Kacchapi or no Kacchapi...her words would be a balm in anybody's life....
