English translation

 

Pallavi

 

Always live in my heart, Oh God Hari.

 

Anupallavi

 

Oh Lord of music, with enthusiasm,

I would sing about your feet.

 

Charanam

 

1. In the stage built by nine gems called Wisdom,

 I would make you sit in the middle,

And sing about you by meditation.

 

2. In a plate of gems called the feeling of devotion,

I would worship you with a lamp of pearls,

So that I can become free.

 

3. I would not leave you and it is not right that you leave me,

Oh God who sleeps on serpent, Oh Vijaya Vittala

Please hear these words of your devotees.
