Raghu Nayaka

Raghu Nayaka

By

Saint Thyagaraja

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

Raga Hamsadvani
Thala Aadi

Pallavi

Raghu nayaka nee pada yuga rajeevamula,
Ne vidajala sri

Anupallvi

Agha jalamulo bara dilli nanna
Darimpa neve gathi khada sri,

Charanam

Bhava sagaramu dhata lekkane,
Palu gasibidi nee marugu cherthini,
Avani jadhipa sritha rakshaka,
Ananda kara , Sri Thyagaraja nutha.

English translation

Pallavi

Oh Lord of Raghus, I can’t let go,
Your lotus like feet.

Anupallavi

Are you not the one who encouraged me?
And my only support to drive away my sins?

Charanam

I am not able to cross this sea of birth,
And after great struggle , I came near and joined you,
Oh consort of earth , Oh saviour of those who seek your protection,
Oh giver of joy, oh God praised by Thyagaraja.
