This is a keerttan on Narasimha. Can someone help me with the meaning? I do not know the composer? This keerttan is available in bhajan book and I just copied the lyrics. This is sung is sriranjani ragam.

My not so complete comprehension of Telugu. Sorry, if I got it wrong.

brOcuDaku evarunnarU paramAtmA ninnuvinA
to save who is there O supreme being! other than you?

gAcu koninE karuNAkaruni juci juci yunnanurA
save having most compassionate see see I remain.
I remain waiting for you thinking (assuming) that you are the compassionate savior.

AlanADu kanakakasipu palumAru bAdhalu jEsina
That day Hiranyakasipu (father of Prahlada) many times ill-treatment did
bAluDaina prahLadhuni brOcina ElA garbapurivAsA
son/young one Prahlada saved why mudra of Krur Devudu Iyer & co. (see here:

Why did you then save Prahlada, who was ill-treated by his father so much?

I think the first word should be brOcuTaku, not brOcuDaku.

And the import of the last lines is I think - 'if you troubled yourself to save prahlAda, why not save me now?'
