Pallavi: Sami nine kori chala marulu konnadira
Anupallavi: Thamasamu seyaka dyajudara kumara
Charanam: Neerajakshi neepai

Meanings: (done by Dr. Aruna Turaga, CA)
Pallavi: O lord (“saami”)! Because of her desire for you (“ninne kori”) she is
extremely (“chala”) agitated (“marulu konnadi”).

Anupallavi: O son of the lord (“kumara”)! Without (“jeyaka”) antagonising anymore
(“taamasam”) please show mercy (“daya judara”) on her.

Charanam: She, who has eyes like the beautiful lotus that are born in the water
(“neerajakshi”) is longing for you (“nee pai”).
