Nambi kettavar illavo

Nambi kettavar illavo

By

Sage Purandara Dasa

Translated by

P.R. Ramachander

Raga Kalavaani
Tha la Mishra chapu

Pallavi

Nami kettavar illavo
Oh Rangayya ninna
Nambade kettare kedalli.

Anupallavi

Ambhuja nabhana Akhila lokesana,
Aprameyanada adhi purusha ninna

Charanam

Karirajna salahi anja bedenu
Adarinchiduvathu aaro
Garuda gamana sri Purandara vittalana
Charana kamala vannu dridainda nammero

English translation

Pallavi

There are none in the world, who believed in you and lost,
Oh Ranga, if some one looses without believing in you, let them loose.

Anupallavi

Oh Lord with lotus in his belly, lord of all worlds,
Oh Lord without any change and the primeval Lord

Charanam

Who advised the king of elephants not to be afraid,
And supported and helped him?
Please believe firmly the lotus like feet,
Of Purandara Vitala traveling on a Garuda.
