Oh lord    who is  the wind that scatters   the cloud of sins,

Who  looks after   simple people  , pure  , who has a great name,

Who is   the bee that goes round the   mind of sages  ,

Who is   without stains  , the  Raghava   and   is the consort of Lakshmi,

And   who is saluted by Yogis   please protect me  ,

Oh Lord who destroyed worries   of the ocean,

Who does not have   desire , passion etc   ,

And one who looks after   Thyagaraja.
