Meanings with Pictures

English Meaning: O Nappinnai Piratti, O Daughter in-law of Nandagopa- the one who bears the physical strength and might of fighting several intoxicated arrogant elephants, the one who never retreats from such a battle without victory; O Neeladevi !You who possess tresses wafting beautiful fragrance; Please open the doors. The hens are screaming everywhere that it’s already dawn. Several groups of cuckoo birds perched on the ‘Madhavi’ creeper on the lattice have been cooing several times for you. O You who have fingers curved like balls, we have been singing the glories of Sri Krishna who is your aunt’s son and hence please come and open the door with your soft redlotus like hands that are adorned with jingling bangles of divine qualities. Please come joyfully on Your own accord rather than for the reason of our calling You.
