Translated by

Ragam  Saveri

THalam Desadhi

Pallavi

Daridhapu leka Vedithe,

Dhaya radhemo   Sri Rama

Pallavi

When I  do not have any other go and request you,

Possibly   compassion would not come in you, Sri Rama

Anupallavi

Kari Dhanamulu Galgithe,

Karuninchi brothuvemo

Anupallavi

Suppose I have elephants and wealth with me,

Possibly  you would take mercy on me and protect me

Charanam

Alanadu  nirjara vairi baa-,

Luni  joochi  brochithivi kaani,

Valasi  padamula  nammithe,

Varamee dosunaa

Charanam

During one day  you  looked at   the boy  .

Of your sworn enemy    and then saved him,

But you are not protecting this Thyagaraja,

Who is firmly believing   in your divine feet.
