Meaning:
O Master, the Master of the world, protect me! Remover of the ego of those who seek! Adorned with the serpent. Lord of seven sages! Oh Lord worshipped by Vishnu, will Your darshana attainable by the mean ones? What austerity did I to get to see You, oh the Lord Who rejoices the singing of nArada! Cure for the distress of the depressed! Ocean of supreme bliss! One who gave birth to dEvasEnApati (subrahmaNya)! Hailed by Vyaasa! I have found out that it is true that this abode is the KailAsha on earth. By your sight my sufferings are all lost. My life has become fruitful. One in the Vedas starting with Saama! With moon, fire and sun eyes! One Who forbids the impurities starting with lust! With the feet venerated by indra! Having the bow of MEru! Taken abode in the hearts of sages! Love form of (beloved by) Tyagaraja!
