Nurture us with fondness,ShAradE
Do reside in my speech [tongue][p]
Oh! mother, your eyes are full of affection
I have always trusted you[a.p]
You have all the wisdom ingrained in the syllables.
Fourteen worlds seek refuge in you.
Manifest in all your glory,accept and protect us.[c1]
You reside in the city of sringEri,
You are enthralled by music and singing.
You posess an auspicious figure.Hail!the consort of Brahma[c2]
You are well decorated,the embodiment of kindness.
I sing and praise your glory,Praising guru purandara vittala,[nurture us][c3]

Savitri garu, for the phrase "pAlisemma muddu shArade" you have provided the translation as "Nurture us with fondness,ShAradE" . If a similar construct occurred in Telugu, like "paalincavamma muddu Saaradaa" I would translate it as "Nurture us, dear Saarada". Is the "muddu" an adjective for Sharada, or does it refer to what Sharada is nurturing us with?

SreenadhjI,
the word 'muddu' is an adjective for ShAradA.
Thank you.

As pointed by Sreenadhji, l am rewriting the first line of the pallavi::
Affectionate ShAradE,nurture us.
Reside in my speech[p]
Sreenadhji,thank you.

Not at all, Saavitri garu. I think you're doing a great service by translating these beautiful krithis, and we should all be thanking you!
