English Translation
Pallavi
See his desire –see his great desire,
Even though he has billions of devotees,
He feels it is not sufficient and wants more and more.
Anupallavi
For for desire and even for other things there is a limit,
But for him he would cross all limits,
Seeing his devotees who worship him with love,
For singing and dancing saying me and you are the same.
Charanam
One of them was one who did not respect his father ,
He is Prahladha who had a heart of stone,
One of them wasone who did not respect his father,
He was called Shuka , the parrot ,
Another believing him hated his brother,
His name was Vibheeshana, the brother of Ravana,
Another believing him hated his brother,
And his name was Sugreeva , the brother of Vali.
