Meaning

Oh, My beloved!  Don't you have even a little compassion for me?  Am I, the hopeless one, don't deserve your affection?
Slowly, the moon is rising up; the gentle breeze is fragrant;  the Cupid is showering arrows of flowers;  oh the one! effulgent as the clouds!  why are you angry with me today?
Your face that excels the moon, your gentle smile that attracts the women, the beautiful form that is worshiped even by Cupid, Oh Siva Siva!  all these add fuel to my passion every day.
One who is having lotus-like eyes!  The embodiment of auspiciousness, fulfill my desires without delay; oh Lord!  You are engrossed in favoring those unfortunate people of this world, immersed in miseries! Oh, Padmanabha! Repository of compassion!
