Meaning (From Ravi Kiran's book & www.karnatik.com):
Please come ("raara"), Lord Venugopala (Krishna), embodiment ("sheela") of adorable ("raajitha") and victorious ("jaya") qualities ("sadguna").
O, the one with big ("saara") eyes ("aaksha"), what ("emi") offenses ("nera") have I committed? I cannot bear ("korvalera") the onslaught of Cupid ("maarubaari"), the god of Love.
O Nandagopalaa! I have nowhere else to go. You come here ("vindu raaraa") with a free mind and spread cheer ("Keduruga Gadiyara").
You have always responded to the prayers ("nin pilachina) of your devotees. But why don't you respond ("palukavu") to me ("nalugakuraa")? You have responded to the elephant ("kari") Gajendra's call and granted him a boon ("varadaa"). Please listen to my repeated calls ("mari mari naa adharamugro") protect me quickly ("larakani karamuga")!
Don't be angry because I persist with you respectfully.
Come ("raa"), O the one who held the mountain Govardhana ("nagadara")!
Come ("raa"), O the one who destroyed ("hara") the demon Mura ("mura")!
Come ("raa"), O one who destroys ("hara") the sorrows of the world ("bhava")!
Dont leave ("chekoraa") this ("ee") devotee ("maguvanu"), your delicate ("sogasini") child ("lalalanu") alone!
Listen to my prayers and wishes ("korika")!
I prostrate ("dendamu") to you ("neeyenda")!
I want to reach ("cheranu") your company ("neechenta")!
Please do not forget me ("maravakuraa")!
With my hands and limbs ("karamula che") I seek refuge ("sharanane") in you ("ninnu") again and again ("marimari").
Note (From Ravi Kiran's Book):
Swarajatis are more sophisticated musical forms than geethams, both in terms of size and quality. They have been composed in the 3rd speed, and generally have a pallavi and a few Charanams. The charanams are generally rendered once as swaras and the second time as lyrics. Some swarajatis also have an anupallavi incorporated in them. Many swarajatis like the sublimely devotional ratna-trayam of Shyama Shastri are concert worthy.
