English translation
Pallavi
I surrender to Budha saluted by Gods,
Who is the son of moon god and Thara.
Anupallavi
He who is saluted by the wise and brings joy to Brahmins,
He who gives power to write sweet poems and is the wealth of great people.
Charanam
He who is the colour of saffron, He who gives joy to Guru Guha,
He who is the enemy of mars , he who wears jewel studded crown,
He who is pretty and lord of Mithuna and Kanya Rasis,
He who holds a book in his hand, He who is a eunuch,
He who does good to servants , he who does not have animosity,
He who blesses the devotes of Shiva and He who is forever happy.
