A
Pancharatna kriti transliterated as
Pañcaratna kṛti (
Sanskrit pancha - five &
ratna - gem) is a set of five
kritis (songs) in
Carnatic classical music, composed by the 18th century Indian composer,
Tyagaraja. All the kritis, as is the case with almost all of Tyagaraja's compositions, are penned in
Telugu, except the first one which is composed in
Sanskrit.
