Lyrics in Telugu

ఆనంద భైరవి రాగం
ఆది తాళం

పలుకే బంగారమాయెనా కోందండ పాణి - 2

పలుకే బంగారమాయె పిలిచినా పలుకవేమి కలలో నీ నామ స్మరణ మరువ చక్కని తండ్రి

యెంత వేడినా గాని సుంతైనా దయ రాదు పంతము సేయగ నేనెంతటి వాడను తండ్రి

ఇరువుగ ఇసుకలోన పొరలిన ఉడతా భక్తి కరుణించి బ్రోచితివని నెర నమ్మితిని తండ్రి

శరణాగ తత్పర బిరుదంకుడవు కావ
కరుణించి భద్రాచల వార రామదాస పోష

పలుకే బంగారమాయెనా కోందండ పాణి - 2
