Nilavaramaghu Neesari Velpulu Lerata! Brovumikanu

Charanams:

Charana Yugambulu Nadulaku Parama Vaikunthamata!

Sarasijaakshi Nee Madhyamu Sakala Suravaasamata!

Siramuna Naigama Kotulu  Velayuchun Naarata!

Sarasa Tyaagaraajaadi Vara Bhaktulu Paderata!

Meaning: (From TK Govinda Rao’s Book)

O Tulasi ! Mother (“janani”) of the world (“jagad”)! You are the Destroyer (“haarini”) of sins and sorrows (“duri-thaapa”) !

There is no equal (“sari”) to you(“nee”)  in this world (“nilavaramagu”). Embodiment of calmness (“velpulu lerata”), I seek your saving grace (“brovumika”).

It is said that all holy (“yugambulu”)  waters (“nadulu”)  finally attain the blissful paradise(“parama vaikuntamata”)  of your sacred feet (“charana”) . Also that you shelter (“vaasa”) all (“sakala”)  the celestials (“sura”), that you bear (“velayuchunarata”)  on your head (“siramuna”) all the Vedas (“naigama kotulu”). All celebrated (“vara”) devotees (“bhaktulu”) and this Tyagaraja delight in singing (“paderata”) your praises and glory.
