Guest guest Posted February 28, 2001 Report Share Posted February 28, 2001 Hari Om! I wrote this on the Sivaratri in Telugu, with an approximate English translation. [Telugu] sI. talapaina gaMgatO tapameTlu jEsEvu talaputAkina tUlu talaye nAdu nAga bhUshaNuDavai nATyamADeda veTlu pAmu gAMcina nEnu paruguliDudu hAlAhalamugoni amRtamE nIvIya cEdu mATanu mriMga cEta kAde yeTulIvu bhikshuvai yittuvu varamulu eMta yunnanu kOru niMka koMta gI. nIku durlabhamEdi? yanni jagamulaku cEtanamosagu Sakti nI ceMtanuMDa sarva maMgaLa Subhakara sAMbamUrti ennakayyalOpAlu nannElu konaga How can you do penance with Ganga on your head, while my head is swayed by mere thoughts! How can you dance with snake around your neck, while I take to heels when I spot a snake! How can you swallow vicious poison and give nectar, while I cannot even swallow a bitter word! How can you bestow boons being a mendicant, while I ask for more no matter what I have! What can be impossible for you to accomplish? When the cosmic energy enlivening all is your consort! Take me as thy refuge without counting my lapses, Lord Sambamurthi, all auspicious and ever benevolent one!
