Oh Rama son of Dasaratha ,what  is that life  ,

Without your kindness.

Even if you are  hundred years old,

Even if you  happen to rule this earth.

Charanam

Rajadhiraja , rathi raja satha lavanya,

Pooja japamula vela pondhukanedhuta,

Rajilli lokantharanga marmamu thelipi,

Raja cheyani Thyagarajadhi vinutha.

Charanam

Oh king of kings who is as pretty as hundred god of love,

At the time when I worship and chant your name,

Unless   you come with friendliness before me ,

Tell me about  the secrets of the world,

And make me agree , Oh Lord    who is worshiped by Thyagaraja,
