English translation

 

Pallavi

 

Singing about Govinda the son of Nanda is a sweet dish

 

Anupallavi

 

This sweet dish finds fault with diseases like attachment and birth cycle.

 

Charanam

 

1.This sweet dish is much better than curd , ghee  and milk,

This sweet dish is better than the juice of banana, grapes and dates.

 

 

2.This rare sweet dish  is better than penance and chanting of names,

And this Purandhara Vittala sweet dish is not attainable for useless talks.
