Meaning:


pa:

Oh Mother ! Jaya lakshmi - the goddess of victory, varalakshmi - the goddess of boons, sangrAma vIra lakshmi - the goddess of courage, Lord Hari (lord Narayana) got you as HIS Love(priyurAlu).

Ca 1 :


Oh Mother ! You are the true Essence cream of the milky ocean. You are the Excellent fragrance of the best lotus. You stayed on the chest of the (blue colored) lord Narayana with elegance. You are the ruler of whole universe...So please rule us also with mercy.

Ca 2 :

Oh Mother ! You are the Best one of those who emerged along with Moon (thus SHE is the sister of Moon) from the milky ocean. You are the Best protector of even the Brahma (four faced god) itself. You are always associated with the lord GOvinda (Narayana)....like wise please stay in our house (mind) also.


Ca 3 :

Oh Mother ! You are the beautiful and charming Golden Idol with the sixteen artistic beauties. You are the fresh bud of the everlasting VEdAs(means the essence of vedas who praise Narayana). You are in front of us with your consort SrI VEnkaTEswara. Please consider us as your belongings.


PS: When milky ocean was churned for Amrutam(which makes one immortal), so many precious things along with Halahalam (the dangerous poison )emerged from it. Some of them are Moon, white elephant, white horse, kousthubha diamond, etc...and SRI MAHA LAKSHMI . Hence annamayya describes Sri Maha Lakshmi as the sister of Moon.

PS: Hence annamayya describes Sri Maha Lakshmi as the sister of Moon.[reproduced from Sri Srinivasarao Dommu"s blog}

In lakshmi ashTotara she is described as 'candrA, candra sahOdarI', also as 'candrarUpA' and 'indu SItalA'.

[aaaaabbbbb]

Lakshmi and candra are supposed to have come out of the ocean of milk
when it was churned by the dEvas and dAnavAs,along with other treasures
like the koustubha the airAvata.So lakshmi is referred as candrA and candra sahOdari
[sister of candra].
