dhyAna bhajana sEyavE – involve yourself in meditation and chanting
manavini – the entreaties of
vara tyAgarAja – the noble Tyagaraja

Meaning: (www.sangeetham.com)
Will you not listen ("vinave") O mind ("manasa")? I ("Ne") will explain ("telpeda") it clearly ("vivarambuga")!
Knowingly ("manasEringi") do not wallow ("pOralutsu") in evil ways ("Ku-mArgamuna"), bringing yourself to ruin ("cEDavaladE").
(…Will you not listen O mind?…) This behavior ("I naDatalu") of yours will not bring good ("banikirAdu") to you, nor will it earn
you ("galuga bOdu ") the grace of God ("Ishvara krpa"). Involve ("sEyavE") yourself in meditating ("dhyAna") on God and singing
("bhajana") of his name.
To the entreaties ("manavini") of the good ("vara") Tyagaraja (will you not listen O mind?)

Notes: This tiny kriti is yet another in the series where Tyagaraja advises his own mind (and thereby devotees) on the right path to
salvation.
