Meaning:


In this kaliyuga, when all other efforts are of no use, he is the great guru, the god, that shows us the true path

Because of His grace only I could become a Vaishnava in this life on this earth and because of Him I could see/wear thiruman
He is the one who gave upadhesha of the ashtakshari mantra. He is Ramanuja, the god of here and hereafter (ubhaya-vibhuti)

He disclosed the secrets of the Vedas, He showed the path of surrender (saranagathi),
He established the correct source (the custom of wearing the Sankha and chakra on one's shoulders); for this reason Ramanuja is the talking God

He established the rules and regulations to all the prapannas, He, with His mercy shows (gives) us the Moksham
He, with His mercy on us, will take us to the door steps of Lord Sri Venkateswara, He is our mother and father and God

Annamayya Keertana -- Ekkadi Manusha Janmam

Ekkadi manusha janmam bettina palame munnadi  …. 
nikkamu ninne nammiti ni cittambikanu ….

What kind of birth is this human birth, what is the use of such a birth. Oh Lord, I firmly beleive you and now its your wish!


maravanu aharambunu maravanu samsara sukamu ….
maravanu yimdriya bogamu madhava ni maya ….
maraceda sumnanambunu maraceda tattva rahasyamu …
maraceda guruvunu daivamu madhava ni maya  …

O Lord, I do not forget to eat good, I do not forget to have worldly family enjoyments, I do not forget the bodily desires, its all your maaya.I forget the good knowledge, I forget the secrets of sprituality, I forget my guru, yourself, its all your maaya.


viduvanu papamu punyamu viduvanu na durgunamulu …. 
viduvanu mikkili yasalu vishnuda nimaya ….
vidiceda shatkarmambulu vidiceda vairagyambunu …. 
vidiceda nacarambunu vishnuda nimaya …..

O Lord, I do not leave good and bad results, I do not leave my bad habits, I do not leave my greeds, its all your maaya. I leave the six karmas (vedic practices for cleaning the body before performing yoga), I leave disattachment, I leave the good practices, its all your maaya.


tagileda bahu lampatamula tagileda bahu bamdhamula ….
tagulanu mokshapu margamu talapuna yemtaina ….
agapadi sri vemkatesvara amtaryamivai ….
nagi nagi nanu niveliti naka yimaya …..

O Lord, I am constantly indulged in piggybacks, indulged in relations. I do not indulge into the path of realization even in my thoughts. You are the controller, why this maaya to me?.
In this keerthana, Annamayya touches upon several angles of leading family, worldly life and not being able to get onto the path of realization. He is gently blaming it on the Lord as his maaya.

Annamacharya Sankeertana -- Telisite mokshamu

Telisite mokshamu  teliyakunna bandhamu ….

kalavantidi batuku ghanunikini ……

Anayamu sukhameda davala dukhamedadi  …

tanuvu pai nasa leni tatvamatiki ponigite ….

papamedi punyamedi karmamandu vonaraga…

Vevelu vidhulandu verapedi marapedi…

daivamunu namminatti dhanyunikini…

Sri Venkateswarudu chittamulo nunnavadu…

eevaledi avaledi itani dasuniki ….

Meaning:

If you understand the true meaning of life, it is salvation. If you are ignorant of it, life is bondage. The wise know that life is dream.

Where is perpetual happiness and thereafter where is sorrow for the philosopher who is desire less. Where is sin and where is piety for the yogi who is never attached to the fruits of his actions?

Which is nectar and which is poison to the person who survives without food? Where are friends and foes to the wise that renunciates?

Where is fear of performing religious duties to the blessed devotee of God? A devotee who has Sri Venkatesa in his conscience is not enamored of the fruits of his Karmas in this or transcendental world.

garima varaalichhe kalpa tharuvaa...

Meaning :

Oh Madana Gopala, please wake up.

You are the most beautiful lord. You are my precious treasure.

You are majestic amidst young Gopikas like king elephant in forest.

You are fond of the lotus-heart of Satyabhama like a bee is fond of pollen on lotus.

Her face is beautiful like moon.

You are in the embrace of loving Rukmini like a parrot in cage.

You are the moon for the lotus-like eyes of your sixteen thousand consorts.

Oh Madana Gopala, You are like beautiful blue cloud spreading on mountains resembling the breasts of Gopikas in lake.

You have Sri Lakshmi on your chest. You established yourself on Venkatadri like wish-fulfilling "Kalpataru" to bestow boons.

Bhogindra shayinam purukusaladayinam …

Purusam shasvatam kalaye …

Kaladamana vanci martandavar makalita kancana vimana lasitam ….

Padmanabham …

Meaning :

I prostrate the immortal one who reclines on the king-serpent, bestower of prosperity to the Puru dynasty. OH! PADMANABHA

           

Your feet are worshipped by BRAHMA, SIVA, INDRA and other celestials.

OH! PADMANABHA

You, being extolled by the sage, took a beautiful form for the sake of his devotion. You are surrounded by the holy PADMATIRTTHA, redeeming all woes and miseries. You are praised by AGASTYA, MAHENDRA, TRIKUTA and MALAYACALENDRA. You are resplendent on the golden VIMANA made by VANCI MARTHANDA VARMA - the annihilator of wicked.

You are adorned by the crown, lustrous as the sun, the fish-shaped ear-rings, pearl garlands, KAUSTUBHA, shining PITAMBARA, golden girdle around the waist and beautiful VANAMALA. You delight in LAKSHADIPA-festival of lamps in lakhs-and other daily UTSAVA-rituals done by the sinless and unparalleled Kings of VANCI. Oh! PADMANABHA, whose eyes brim with the nectar of compassion and which are akin to the softest inner petals of the lotus.

aavala bhaageeradhi dari baavula aa jalamae oorinayatlu ….
Sri venkatapathi neevaithe mamu chekoni vunna daivamani ….
neevalane nee Sharananiedanu, idiye paratatvamu naaku ….

Meaning :


In this song Annamacharya tells that the presence and grace of God depends on how well a person thinks of him irrespective of the various ways of worship. When observed in depth, it is just like the size and quality of a pan-cake depending on the amount of batter.


The Vaishnavas worship you with reverence as Vishnu.
The Vedic philosophers tell that you are the Supreme Conscience.
The Shaivas believe that you are Siva & the Kapalikas praise you as Adibhairava.


The Shakteyas consider you as the manifestation of the supreme power Shakti. People chant your praise in a number of ways. Ignorant people assume that you are insignificant.The wise recognize your infinite greatness.


You are like the vast water pool spread with as many lotus flowers.
It is only the water of Bhagiradhi river that seeps into the wells by her side. Oh Sri Venkatapati,you are our protector. I surrender at your feet. It is transcendental bliss for me.
