Pallavi

 

Mokshamu galadha  , bhuvilo,

Jeevan mukthuluguni  varaluku

Sakshathkara  sad bhakthi,

Sangitha Jnana viheenaluku

 

Charanam

 

Pranana samyoga valla,

Pranava nadamu  saptha swaramulai baraga,

Veena vadana loludou  siva mano

Vidha merugaru , Thyagaraja Vinutha.

 

English Translation

 

Pallavi

 

Is salvation available in this world only,

For realized and liberated souls?

 

Anupallavi

 

Is it available to those drenched in true devotion,

But do not have knowledge of music?

 

Charanam

Is  it available to those  who are not able in their mind,

To see Lord Shiva , who is deeply interested in the notes of Veena,

In which the sound “Om”,  due to its merging with soul,

Comes out as  the seven notes?
