Meaning

Most beautiful beloved, what wrong have I done to you?
Oh lord, Sarasanabha! the serene ones serve you.
The moon has risen showering red-hot embers on me.  Padmanabha!, how shall I endure the agony today?
Does Cupid have a hundred darts for me? Will you not be kind to me?  Must I suffer even more?  Is this discord worthy of you?
Soon embrace me close to your bosom.  Grant the nectar of thy lips and remove my pangs with honeyed words.
