Thalam AAdhi

Pallavi

Brova Barama  Raghu Rama,

Bhuvanamella   nee vai nannokkani

Pallavi

When all    the world has  all been yours

Is it a burden for you to protect me?

Anupallavi

Sri Vasudeva   andagotla ku-

Kshini  unchukoledhaa  nannu

Anupallavi

Have you not safely kept  millions ,

Of universes  in your belly , is it

Charanam

Kalachambudhilo dhayatho  nama-

Rulakai  yadhigaks Gopi-,

Kalakai  konda  letha  lethaa,

Karunakara THyagarajuni

Charanam

Once in an wish due to mercy on the Devas,

IN the ocean  and at another time   ,

For the sake of Gopis  did you not  lift a mountain,

OH doer of mercy to  Thyagaraja
