pallavi

evarura ninnu vina gati maku

anupallavi

savana raksaka nityotsava sitapati

caraNam

rada nadupai ni daya vinarada muravairi gada daya balka rada idi mariyada nato vadama ne bhedama maku

caraNam

raka nanneca nyayama paraka nenante heyama rama raka- sasimukha ni kasinciti saku ma punya slokama maku

caraNam

srisari ganarativi na dasa teliyaka botivi apagesarcita palitesa na prakasama sva prakasama maku

caraNam

raja bigu nikelara tyagarajarcita talajalara raja i jalamu seya raja brova sankocama sura bhujama maku

P: Who (evarurA) is refuge (gati) for us (mAku) other than (vinA) You (ninu)?

A: O Protector (rakshaka) of sacrificial oblations (savana)! O Lord who is an eternal (nitya) joy (utsava) (literally

Who is refuge for us other than You?

C4: O King (rAjA)! Why (ElarA) this rigidity (bigu) for You (nIku) (nIkElarA), O Lord worshipped (arcita) by this
tyAgarAja (tyAgarAjArcita)! I am unable (jAlarA) to bear (tALa), O Lord rAma!
Do You consent (rAja) for this (I) procrastination or deception (jAlamu sEya)? Are You shying away (sankOcamA)

Who is refuge for us (mAku) other than You?
