I have now come to know ("delisEnu") about the sins ("duDuku") that I committed ("jEyu") in my previous ("toli") births ("Janmamuna") Meaning: The results of these sins are very perceptible to me now. The situation is clear as a fruit ("phalamEmO") in the palm ("chEti") of my hand ("yara"). One does not need ("valEnA") a mirror ("kaddamu") to see the boil ("puNTi") in one's palm. Meaning: O Lord! In the same manner as (aTarA) as a beautiful (ramyamau) paddy (vari) seedling (molaka) might happen (nErcunu) (nErcunaTarA) to flourish (rAjilla) (literally shine) beside (centa) (literally near) rAgi crop (payirula), Meaning: Similarly , O the one who sleeps ("shayana") on a serpent("naaga") couch, the auspicious fruits ("raajillu nerchu") resulting from Your Naama SankIrthanam will be destroyed by its association ("tOnu") with the sins ("paapamu") from poorva JanmAs . The merit of Your holy ("punyamu") name ("naama") will be incompatible ("chelagunA") with the company of my sins !
