Summary

amrutavarSiNi, sivE, bhavAni is attracted to the nectar of happiness and is worshipped by the vishnu and other gods. She protects lakshmi, vishnu and others, is the mother of guruguha and takes the form that is in people’s mind and who dwells in the hearts of happy people. I am constantly thinking of the amrutEswari who can cause the rains and pray to her to shower, and cause the clouds to shower. This song was written when he visited a drought stricken town. It is said that it rained after he sang the song. Alternate meaning:

Oh ShivE! Bhavaani! You charm the nectar like bliss. You cause the rain and you are worshipped by Shiva and others.

You protect Vishnu and others and you are the mother of prosperous Guruguha. You are of the form of knowledge and dwell in the heart of those steeped in bliss. You are the compassionate one. I meditate on you always to shower heavy rain at once. Please send rain more and more abundantly.
