MEANING: (From TK Govinda Rao’s Book)

O Rama! Reputed to fulfil (“daayaka”) the desires (“kaamitha phala”) of devotees!

Unless my actions in the past lives had earned enough merit, I will not be destined to have my desires fulfilled. In this Kaliyuga, without proper understanding and discrimination, I went to the extent of reproaching you for my plight.

Had I only devoutly worshipped your feet as the cream of devotees like Prahlaada, Narada, Paraashara and Raamadasa did, would you not have ordained a favorable destiny for me?
