daridapuleka vedite dayarademo sri rama

anupallavi

karidhanamulu galigite karuninci brotuvemo

caraNam

alanadu nirjaravairi baluni juci brocitivi gani valaci padamula nammite varami docuna tyagaraju

Notation

From Shivkumar Kalyanaraman (shivkumar.org)

Pallavi:
Darithaapu Leka Vedithe Dayaraademo? Sri Raama

Anupallavi:
Kari Dhanamulu Galgite Karunichi Brotuvemo!

Charanams:
Alanaadu Nirjara Vairi Baaluni Juchi Brochitivi Gaani
Valachi Padamula Nammite Varami Dochunaa ? Tyaagaraaju

Meaning: (From TK Govinda Rao’s Book)
Sri Rama! Perhaps you will not (“raademo”) care (“daya”) for one, poor and helpless(“daridaapa leka
vedithe”) like me. Probably one must parade a paraphernalia of elephants (“kari”) and pompous show
(“galgite”) of wealth (“dhanamu”) to attract your grace (“karuninchi Brotuvemo”).
Once (“alanadu”), did you not, protect “juchi brochitivi”) Prahlada (“baaluni”) from the terrible wrath
of his father – Hiranya Kashipu who was the arch enemy (“vairi”) of the celestials (“nirjara”)? But
(“gaani”) you hesitate to oblige (“varami dochuna”) this Tyagaraja who has also clung (“valachi”) to
your feet (“padamula”) with firm devotion (“nammite”).

Pallavi:
Darithaapu Leka Vedithe Dayaraademo? Sri Raama

[Sri Rama! Perhaps you will not (“raademo”) care (“daya”) for one, poor and helpless(“daridaapa leka
vedithe”) like me.]
