Meaning: (approx.)
O absolutely (“parama”) pure one (“pAvanA”)! You bestow good fortune and auspiciousness (“bhAgyamiyAdrA”). O ocean of kindness (“karuNAlavAla”).
O the one without comparisons (“nir-upamAna”). The resplendent one (“tEjO”). You are the form of pure Atman/soul (“nirmalAtma rUpa”). O supreme enlightened one (“parama hamsa”), prayed to (“vara”) by sadashiva brahmendra.
You allow us to transcend the maze of sin (“pApajAlamula”). You give us freedom (“mOcana”) from anger (“kOpa”), pain (“tApa”), and major sins (“ghana pApa”).
You are Shri Raghu (“shrI raghu nIvE”).
You enchant Guha (“guharanjana”) who praises you (“nE pogaDajAla”). Keeping your lovely form in mind (“dhuma rUpadhara”), this poet Mishu Krishna (“mIshukrSNa”) bows to you (“sannuta”).
