Charanam

1.Gopurambulanu kadugoppa   kambamula-bhoo,

Sthapitham pagu  chilai  thraunula  adalanu,

Deepala varasulanu   divya vahanamulanu,

Papa hara , sevinchi bahirmugundaithe Shiva.

Charanam

1.I saw   and salutedtemple towers   , very strong pillars,

Stones  which have  been fixed on the earth  ,

Dancing of young ladies, row of lights ,  divine   steeds

Oh Destroyer of sins, Oh Lord Shiva and   came  out.

2.THali pathiyaru pradakshinamulu onarinchi,

Para ninda vachanamula Bhaguganadu kanu,

Orula  Bamala joochi yupongi thinikani,

Vara Shivakshara yuga   japamu seyanaithi Shiva.

2.After departing Going    round sixteen times,

Except telling with aplomb  words finding faults with others,

And   seeing the wives of other   people amd becoming happy,

Oh Shiva , I did not chant the divine words , “Shiva, Shiva.”

3.Hadaka   samambaina y adbudhakruthini , ye-

Nada jesikoni  hruth nalikamunnu , madi

Madiki Joochi  mai mariachi yundunadi

AAdala? THyaga   Rajarchitha Pada.

3 Is it fun  to keep   the wonderful form shining like pure Gold,

 In the  lotus of  my mind  , seeing it again and again,

Forgetting my entire body  and  to sit in Samadhi,

Oh God  whose  feet is worshipped  by Thyagaraja.
