[edit] Commentary
This is a song that reflects deep devotion, humility, and a feeling of distress, highlighting the merciful nature of Lord Rama. Sri Ramadasu gives an account of various deeds of Sri Rama through his mercy to benefit not only creatures on earth but also various deities. He also reminds Him how He preserves the universe and is praised by all the great sages such as Narada. Finally, he describes how he worships Lord Rama, who is based in Bhadrachalam.
