English translation

 

Pallavi

 

In the heart without love divine wisdom does not come.

 

Anupallavi

 

Only for great scholars know the divine inner look,

And not those without love.

 

Charanam

 

Like those who eat different varieties of food are not satiated,

Oh God loved by Thyagaraja, Those who worship one idol will get pleasure.
