Raga sudha rasa panama chesi rajillave manasa
Anupallavi
Yaga yoga thyaga bhoga phala mosange

Sadashiva mayamagu nada onkara svara,
Vidhulu jeevan mukthalu ani ,
Thyagaraju theliya.
English translation
Pallavi
Having drunk the nectar like juice of raga,
Have you not become happy?
Anupallavi
Which is the result of ritual, yoga, sacrifice , and enjoyment together.
Charanam
Thyagaraja knows that the music,
Of the sound of “Om” which is,
Completely occupied by Sadashiva,,
Is enjoyed by the liberated souls.
Translations to English of the lyrics of Krithis of Carnatic music , which are tomes of devotion.
