2. O Lord Rama! I became servant to You alone instead of believing much others.


3. O Lord Rama! At all times, I considered that You alone to be Lord of celestials and others who belongs to me.

4. O Lord Rama! Treating everything (else) to be false, I became one who considers You alone to be the reality.

5. O Lord Rama! I became Yours by loving You such that I felt horripilation the moment I thought of You.

6. O Lord Rama! I considered that, in order to avoid (the company of) wicked people, the roar of Your name is the recourse.

7. O Lord Rama! In my mind, everyday I experienced novel (and) nice feelings.


8. O Consort of Sita – daughter of Earth! I considered that, in the Ocean of Worldly Existence, there is no mutuality between one another.

9. O Lord Rama! I swear by those Five Great Elements (space, air, fire, water, earth) that I surrendered (results of) all my pious deeds to be Your's.

10. O (blue) Lotus Eyed! O Lord Rama! Please do treat all my statements to be true.


11. O Friend of Lord Sankara! O Ocean of the joy of Supreme Bliss! O Lord Rama! Atleast from now-onwards, do protect me.

12. O Lord whose hands extend to the knees! O Lotus Faced! O Lord whose conduct is praised well by this Tyagaraja! O Lord Rama!

[edit] Variations

  • 2 zaGkara sakha – zaGkara zuka : zaGkara zuka - does not seem to be appropriate in the present context.
  • 3AjAnu bAha – AjAnu bAhu : AjAnu bAhu - does not seem to be appropriate in the present context.

[edit] References

  • 1 evvarikevaru lEdu - In the books this has been taken to mean 'the relationships are not real'. Probably Sri Tyagaraja reflects Upanishadic statement - Yajnavalkya says to his wife - "It is not for the sake of the husband, my dear, that he is loved, but for one's own sake that he is loved. It is not for the sake of the wife, my dear, that she is loved, but for one's own sake that she is loved......" bRhadAraNyaka upaniSad - II.iv.5.
