Charanam

1.Udupathi   mugulella  vasagaa birudhu lanu  patti,

 Adugadugu   jaya jaya  manaGa anaa  vel pula vela

 Padugalu nija natyamadagaa samyumana basidi  

Suma varshamu kuriyka vadi vadi ganas marakodulu,

Thada pada bhoomini danda mulidagaa –

Santhoshamunanu  kada kantini  choosu sogasu.

Charanam

1.Chandra and others in a row  catching hold of the titles,

When they said “victory, victory”, when the  true dance  ,

Was done  by  very famous  deva Dasis and at that time,

When  golden flowers   rained like rain  and when with great speed,

The crowds   of Devas  came  and saluted  on the earth   which was shaking,

She  happily saw them with a corner of her eyes in a pretty way .

2.Sri Ramanini choosi palakaga  navarathnala haarapu,

SAru lalladaga aa molaga nagavu ,

Gowraavumu  anthadanu  meryaganaavela   SAnaka,

Naradadu lellaa pogadagaa  keeramunu pooni sariga

Cheera kanthi merayagaa srungaari  koluvundu shukra

 Varapu soga sellaa juda,

2.After seeing Goddess  Lakshmi was being spoken to   ,

When several necklaces made by several nine hems   swung,

When thelight from that slow smile cast its luster everywhere,

And at that  time when the great sages  like  Narada and SAnaka praised,

The Fully made up mother   holding a parrot in her hand,

With the  shine from the Jari silk Sari  shined 

To se the pretty royal   look   of the goddess on a  Friday.

3.THaranaruna vadhana kamalini  athyanthamaina,

Karuna rasa poorna nethrini   Sri Pancha nadha  ,

Puamunna   nela konna  thallini  Sri

Thyagaraja  paripalini  sarva  roopini  ,

SAranagatha  vathsilini varamanulu   daga daga  yani,

Merayu  kankana   yudha kara  para  devini  sevimpa.

3.  To  salute   the mother  whose  face  is shining like the early morning  Sun,

Who has  eyes which drips the  mercy,

Who is  the mother who lives  in the town of Panchanadha,

Who protects  Thyagaraja  , who has the form of everything ,

Wholoves who seeks her protection ,

And who wears  the kustous bangles embedded with valuable gems,
