nEramulanu manninchi neeve kAvavalenu gAni

vErevarunnArurA Sri venkaTESwara dayAkara

Meaning: (Courtesy: http://www.sangeetasudha.org/othercomposers2/s39.html

Oh Sri Rama, why don't you protect (brOva-rAdA) me (nannu) yet (ika)? Why are you merciless (daya lEdA)?

I can't bear (ika tALanu) delay anymore (tAmasambu jEsitE). I even don't beg (vEDanu) others (parula) .

You alone should come to my rescue, destroying (baTTi hatamu jEsi – literally catch and destroy) all six (Aru) enemies (Satruvulanu - desire, anger, greed, lust , jealousy and arrogance) .

You annihilate my horrible sins (poorvArjita ghOra pApamulanu pOgoTTi), pardoning my wicked deeds (nEramulanu manninchi).

Oh all merciful (dayAkara) Rama (Venkateswara) – ( neeve kAvavalenu gAni), who else is there for me (vErevarunnArurA)?
