Paluke Bangaramayena Song Meaning:

Pallavi:
Your talk has become gold, Oh Kodandapani (Rama with a bow in hand). Why don’t you talk when I call you? I think of your name even in my dreams. Oh, my dear father, I can never forget you.

Charanam:
When a squirrel rolled in the sand to help you in a humble way, you kindly protected it. I have immense faith in you only.

Oh, my father I fondly believed that you earned fame by transforming a stone into Ahalya compassionately.

Oh my father, why are you not compassionate? I’ve been begging repeatedly. What am I after all?

You possess the title ‘protector of devotees’. I pray for your mercy. Please bless Bhadrachala Ramadasu and protect them.
