Lyrics
Pallavi
kāmākṣi nī padayugamu sthiramani nē nammi yunnānu
nā cintalellanu dīrcammā
Charanam 1 — Svara lyrics
amba nannu brōva samayamu vinumā patita pāvanigā
Charanam 2 — Svara lyrics
anudinamu śaraṇamani ninnu vēḍukoniyunna sutuḍammā sadaya
Charanam 3 — Svara lyrics
sarasijāsana harīśa vinuta pādā nātō vādā
Charanam 4 — Svara lyrics
kamala daḷa sama nayana kaca jita ghanā śaśidhara nibha vadana
Charanam 5 — Svara lyrics
mānavati ninnu sadā dalacina mānavulakella phalamosagē
birudugala dēvatayani nē vinabaḍi nīvē gatiyanucu
Charanam 6 — Svara lyrics
pāvani puraharuni ramaṇī pārvati sakala janani
pātakamulanu vaḍiga dīrci varamosagumu
Charanam 7 — Svara lyrics
kanakagiri sadana ninnu golicina janamulaku
dinadinamu śubhamosagēvani śrutulu moraliḍagā
moralu vini vini vini
Charanam 8 — Svara lyrics
bāla kisalaya caraṇa nimiṣamu tāḷanika
vini mada gaja gamana tāmasamu sēyakanē
nannipuḍu brōvumu parātpari
Charanam 9 — Svara lyrics
kunda mukuḷa radā sura bṛnda vinuta padā
bhuvilō varadāyakigadā nā moralu cevulaku vinadā girisuta
Charanam 10 — Svara lyrics
nīvalenē galadā nera dātavu ī jagatilō
nīdu pada sārasamula ī bhava jaladhiki tariyanucu migula
Charanam 11 — Svara lyrics
kamala sambhava sura munīndrula cētanu
ninu pogaḍuṭaku taramammā śubhamimma
ninu nammitini śyāmakṛṣṇa sōdari
duramuganu karuṇa salupumikanu
Meaning
The singer asks Kamakshi to ease every worry, trusting her as a compassionate mother. The eleven sections move between praise and urgent appeal: she protects the vulnerable, grants what devotees seek and guides them through worldly suffering. The repeated requests to listen make the prayer intimate and direct.
