karimukha varadA = I worship the Elephant-faced One
mAm pAlaya = protect me
parikIrtita = One who gives fame/glory
vighna nivAraNa = eradicates obstacles
sari sama rahita = Who reconciles differences
sankaTa haraNa = removes distress
hari surEshAdi vandita pada = Thy Feet being worshipped by hari (vishnu) and Indra (sura+Isha)
giri kanyA suta = son of the blemishless maiden of the mountain (i.e. dEvi)
gIta jnAnata = One who is steeped in music knowledge
durita dukkha bhaya tApa samhara = Who removes rapid changes, sorrows, fear and dangers
hari dAmOdaka = Who is the apple of vishNu's eyes
Amra phala priya = Whose favorite fruit is the mango

Thanks a lot for the corrections

[chetana]

Couple of corrections:-

"sari sama rahita = Who reconciles differences"

sari sama rahita actually means one with no equal or parallel.

"durita dukkha bhaya tApa samhara haritA "

durita dukkha bhaya tApa samhAra hArita means One who destroys (hArita) the collection (saMhAra) of (bad things like) difficiculty/danger (durita) , sorrow (dukkha), fear (bhaya) and tApa (torment)

mOdaka Amra phala priya = One who likes mOdaka, the sweetmeat, and mango fruit.

[kesava]

"mOdaka Amra phala priya = One who likes mOdaka, the sweetmeat, and mango fruit."

May I know from where the "sweetmeat" has come, please?

Regards.

[rshankar]

mOdakam aka sweetmeat...

[kmrasika]

chetana, kesava: thank you for your corrections. My inference for haridAmOdaka came from the lines of the ST sAvEri piece where it goes, "pAvana pangkajanAbha manOhara" hence my contention.

In the GBM book the lyrics are given without the subscript numbers for pronunciation, hence I had to guess them.

mOdakam/kozhukaTTai is a sweetmeat as it is made with the pUraNam (combination of jaggery+coconut) and then covered and made bell-shaped using the shell made out of rice flour. Since the overall taste is sweet, it is regarded as sweetmeat.
