English meaning

 

Pallavi

Oh Parthasarathi who is in Triplicane,

I bow at your feet, shower your graceful sidelong look

 

Anupallavi

You who earlier taking pity on Arjuna taught him Gita,

In this world which is surrounded by roaring waters

 

Charanam

When a lady meditating on your tall great form in her heart,

 Approached you , you showered your grace on her,

 And to tie her flowing locks again , you waged war,

Became charioteer to Arjuna , took pity on him,

And suffered pain by receiving the arrows sent by the enemies,

And I came singing so that the body of yours is without any wounds
