Krupala vala Kaladhara sekhara,

Kruthabhi vandana  sri Rama

Oh Rama , the store house of mercy,

Who is saluted by the Lord who wears the  crescent

Anupallavi

Nrpothama saranagathaJanaaga,

Nivaranabja hithanvaya sasanga.

Anupallavi

Oh great king, who destroys  the sins,

Of those surrendering to him,

The moon which rosre  in the clan of the  Sun.

Charanam

Apavarga  pala  kamamulanu  joochi  addamai,

Yanimadhi  siddhulamosabuchedhatayya,

Supavithra roopa sadaa  Karunajoodu,

Surapalaka Thyagaraja  nutha.

Charanam

Other Gods seeing only desire   is to attain salvation ,

AS a method to break it are promising   eight occult powers like Anima,

And try to deceive me, Oh Lord with pure form,

Please see me with mercy,

Oh Lord praised by Thyagaraja who protects the Devas.
