O Lord of celestials bearing a fierce discus in hand that cuts, pulverises and grinds to dust the wicked Asura-clans! O Lord of Venkatam with water-tanks that brim with lotuses like fire! Grace that this love-brimming servant joins you lotus test.

O Lord of lotus-dame Lakshmi, you rained fire-arrows ending the days of the heartless. Asuras who troubled the Earth! O Lord of Venkatam adored by gods, Asuras and Munis! Pray show this lowly self the way to your lotus feet.

O Lord of venkatam whom celestials worship everyday, through thought, world, deed, and praise! I long to see the lotus-feet that spanned the Earth. O, when will the day be when I join you inseparably?

Alas, undeservingly I crave and grieve for your lotus feet! The blue-throated Siva, the four-faced Brahma, the subtle-minded Indra and many fish-eyed damsels surround you desirously forever. O Lord of Venkatam, pray come as you did then, and bewitch me!
