Pallavi

 

I have become yours , Oh God,

Who looks after the entire world,

And should this become one minute attachment.

 

Anupallavi

 

God of gods, God of the earth , One who is on the side of the blessed,

God with lotus eye , God who is the life of good people  and one who is forever.

 

 

Charanam

Truth personified, One who is forever, valour in war,

One who is extremely pretty , one who has maximum strength,

One who is forever celebration, Thyagaraja who worships you ,

Says  that in reality  he is your real slave.
