Meaning
Oh, Hari! God of gods! I always depend upon you.
You are Padmanabha residing in the city of Anantapura.
I am a refugee who has fallen into the ocean of birth and death which is boundless. Looking at me, who is thus suffering, does compassion not rise in your heart? I do not know what is good and what is evil! I am like an infant. How can the father neglect the child? You are the support of the hapless. Oh, Padmanabha! Give me happiness.
