P: What kind of (ETi) musings (yOcanalu) are You doing (jEsEvurA)? There is none (evaru lErurA) to counter
(eduru palkuvAru) (literally say against) (palkuvArevaru) You.

A: It is not appropriate (rAdurA) to slip (jArcaga) on one's promise (nOTi mATa) (literally word of mouth);
what kind of musings are You (nIvu) – the excellent one (mETiyaina) among crores (kOTi) of Gods (vElpulalO) –
doing? There is none to counter You.

C: While the great (caNDa) (literally severe) sages (maunulu) proclaim (ADa) (literally say) (maunulADa) –
that (ani) among numerous (meNDu) heroes (SUrulalO) You are the One who would not retreat (venuka tIyavu)
(tIyavani) (literally not go back),
that (ani) You are not (kAdu) (kAdani) the One (vADu) who speaks (ADE) two (reNDu) words (mATalu)
(mATalADE), and
that (ani) You are the One (vADu) (vADani) who rules (pAlincu) crores (kOTla) of Universes (aNDa),
O Lord praised (nuta) by this tyAgarAja! what kind of musings are You doing? there is none to go counter You.
