Panthamelara Oh Raghava

In spite of  my requesting  several times oh Raghava ,

Why this adamancy  Oh Raghava

Anupallavi

Chintha  deerchuda  kentha modiraa ,

Antharathma  nachentha Rakane

Anupallavi

Why this   great reluctance to   remove my worries ,

Oh God who is my soul , Why are you not coming near me

Charanam

Chithamandhu  ninnu  joochu  Soukhyame  ,

Uthamambanusu  upponguchunu,

Satha mathramaa  chala   nammithini,

Sarva bhouma  Sri Thyagaraja nutha

Charanam

In my mind   I was happy  thinking   that  ,

The pleasure of seeing   is the   greatest,

Oh Lord who is the essence of every thing  ,

I completely believed   in you m,

Oh Sovereign ruler  who is worshipped by Thyagaraja.
