Mati matiki Delpavalenaa muni,

Masarchitha Charana Ramayaa  neetho

Pallavi

Oh Rama whose   feet is  worshipped  in the mind of sages,

Should I tell you   again and again

Anupallavi

Nooti kokkate  mata  saladhaa,

Nati modhalukoni  saatileni  neetho

Anupallavi

It it not sufficient   if I say one word  among hundred,

With you who has been matchlessly there  from beginning

Pallavi

1.Pankajavadanaa sarasa vinodhaa,

SAnkatamulanu   vegame theerba radhaa?

SAnkarapriya sarvantharyami Gadha?

Inka nee madhi neeku Deliyaga  lethaa?

Charanam

1.Oh Lord with a lotus face, Oh joyful entertainer,

Can you not come quickly to  destroy my sorrows?

Oh Lord liked by Lord Shiva   , who is an all beings,

Have   you not still  understand   my mind?

2.Karunasagara , paripoorna neeku,

Sari veelpulu leranusu neevaraku,

More Bettina naapai  yela paraku,

Varulu joothuru Bandamuna   kokka methuku

2.Oh ocean of mercy , why this neglect towards me,

Who has  been  thinking that  there is no one

Who are equal to you who is  complete?

The experts would see  a sample of one grain from a pot  .

3.Srungara  sekara  , Sura vairi Raja ,

Banga   sujana  hruthkumudha  baraja,

Mangalakara roopa   jitharathi Raja,

Ganga Janaka  palitha   Thyagaraja.

3,Oh epitome of charma, killer   of the  king,

Of the enemies   of devas, Oh moon who opens up ,

The lily like heart  , Oh Lord with auspecious form,

Who by his beauty   won over   the God of love.

Oh creator of Ganges  river who protects  Thyagaraja.
