Karunakara Nee
By Saint Purandara Dasa
Translated by P. R. Ramachander

Pallavi

Karunakara nee nembhuvadadheko bharavasavillenage

Anupallavi
Pari pariyalli nara janma navittu,
Thiru thirugi mana karagisuvada kandu

Chararanam

1. Kari dhruva bali paanchali Ahalyeya,
Poredava ihadali ne anthe,
Arithu vicharisi naoa da lla dellavu
Pari pari kanthe galanthide Krishna

2. Kanrunakara neenaadhare eegale,
Karapidi dennanu nee salho
SArasijaksha arasa neenadhare
Durithagalennannu peedippadunte

3. Marana kaladhalli ajaamila golide,
Garuda dwajanemba naamadinda
Varabirudugalu uliya bekkadhire,
Thwarithadi kayo, Sri Purandara Vittala

English translation

Pallavi

Oh Merciful one, why do you believe in me,
Without any faith in me

Anupallvi

Again and again giving me this human birth,
And seeing that you again and again torturing me

Charanam

1. There is none in the world like for having saved.
Gajendra, Dhruva, Bali, Panchali and Ahalya,
And knowing this and thinking about it,
And they appear to be lies, do not laugh at me Krishna.

2. Oh merciful one, I beg you at this moment,
To hold my hands and take me with you,
Oh Lotus eyed one, If you are indeed the king,
Is it proper for you to make me suffer these troubles.

3. I understand that you should mercy to Ajamila in his death bed,
Calling him by the name of Garuda Dwaja,
And so if you want to retain your good name,
Show me a slight portion of that kindness to you.
