The meaning for vadaraka pOve is from this link.
Ksetrayya: A Courtesan to the Messenger
vadaraka po pove
Don't go on chattering, just go away.
Why should he come here?
Tell him not to come.
It all happened so long ago,
in a different age,
another life.
Who is he to me, anyway?
Think of the long nights I spent
waiting for him, minute after minute,
saying to myself, "He'll come today,
he'll come tomorrow!"—
the hot sighs,
lips dry with longing,
nights aflame with moonlight.
What more is there to say?
Just go away !
I wore myself out watching the road.
Counting the moons, I grieved.
Holding back a love I could not hold,
listening to the screeching
of peacocks and parrots,
I passed the months of spring.
Let's have no more empty words.
Just go away !
I even asked the birds for omens
if Muvva Gopala was coming.
I grew weak, watching my girlfriends
join their husbands for love.
O god, do I ever have to see
his face again
with this body of mine?
Once was enough!
Just go away !
