Meaning: Great one! Protect me. O RAghava! I worshipped you day in and day out. I regarded you as my entire wealth and fortune. Again and again I appealed to you. Your name is more precious than genuine pearls. Born in this world, I took to your name firmly. Contemplating your blessed feet profoundly, I feel I am saturated with you. Through songs extolling your glory, I sought your abode. Through meditation I have become your devotee.
