1.In your boyhood like   a child’s play,

You  took the  great bow of  Lord Shiva,

When several kings were   witnessing it,

Joyfully broke it  and married  Goddess  Lakshmi

2.Nalgu nokapadhi vela kanchura-

Dhala, sura ripu moola bala mula,

Leelagaanoka kolanesi,

Kala Yama puri pala jesina nin

2.You killed  just ike sport   the Moola Bala,

Army   of Ravana with fourteen thousand chariots,

By sending just  one    arrow   of yours,

And send them to the  city of God of death.

3.Raja sekaru nee jagathilo  ,

Rajasammuna   pooja jeyu,

RAjulanu jaraajulaku mruga-

Raja THyagarakja nutha nin

3,Oh Lord who was like an elephant,

To the kings with  Rajas  qualities,

Who worshipped Lord  Shiva,

Oh Lord who is worshipped  by Thyagaraja
