[With songs] enjoyably attuned to the rhythm of the mridanga
Whoever is the hero who charms you?
Anupallavi
[With songs] that have truths conveying the meaning of Upanishads
and in-tune notes, (whoever is the hero…)
Charanam
With songs having prosodical beauty and proper pauses, tranquility and devotion,
Sweet as grape essence, containing the Navarasas,
Is Tyagaraja capable of singing your praises
in such a manner? Sri Rama!
.
What a composition, only Sri thyaraja can use words like this.
