Lyrics & Meaning: nArAyaNAya namO by Annamaachaarya

[HariKrishna]

I'm almost to ask for this but, I was surprised that I could not find it with Google. The few hits I got for lyrics were of Naaraayana Teertha's composition of the same name. This one was sung by Malladi Brothers on their "Krithis of Annamacharya" CD in janjUti rAgam. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks! Quick question - My notes say that this song is sung in rAga janjUtI. Is rAgam "cenjuruTI" same as "janjUTi?" I could not find mention of either rAga on karantic.com. Is it known by another name/spelling? I found a rAga "jhinjOTi" but I'm guessing that's not it.

It is very difficult to decipher some words in this song.
I have tried my utmost.
