Thalam Roopakam

Pallavi

Varada Raja   ninu kori  vachithi  mrokke raa

Pallavi

Oh Varadaraja  I came to request you  but I am saluting  you.

Anupallavi

Surulu, Munulu   bhoosurulu   chutti chutti sevinche

Anupallavi

 Devas, saints  , bramins   go round and round  and serve you.

Charanam

Vara Giri  vaikuntamata varnimba   tharamu kathada-

Nirjarulu  thara kalalo   chandrudai,

Merayuthu  vata vara-THyaga,

Raja nutha  Garuda  seva   chooda

Charanam

Your divine mountain it seems is  Vaikunta and it seems ,

It is not possible   to describe it

 You would shine like the moon amidst the stars called  Devas,

Oh God   praised by Thyagaraja , to see your Garuda seva .
