THalam  DEsadhi

Pallavi

Sakshi ledanuchu  sadimbake,

Sathya sandha  sad bhaktha palaka

Pallavi

Do not tell that  I do not have any witness ,

Oh Truthful one   who protects  his true  devotees

Anupallavi

Veekshakadhulella navvaraa , Jagath,

Sakshivamsa  neeradhi  Poorna Chandra.

Anupallavi

Would not those people who see it laugh ,

Oh moon who was born in clan of Sun ,

Who is the witness  of the world.

Charanam

SAkthi neeyeda nindaaraa ledhaa  paraa-,

SAkthi  brovaledhaa  vishayamandhu  vi-,

Rakthi  kalgu   Sri thyagarajuni  nija,

Bhakthi   nee veruga   leva  manavula.

Charanam

Does not the strength   completely fill you up,

Did   The goddess Shakthi refuse  to protect me,

Do you not know    the real devotion  ,

Of this Thyagaraja who   is completely  from worldly pleasures?
