Meaning:
Tandanana ahi- tandanaana pure
Tandanaana bhala- tandanaana?
?
Brahmam is one, absolutely one.
There is no disparity of high and low
For every one it is Srihari who is the inner spirit,
The genus of all creatures is only one
Srihari is the Supreme inner spirit of everyone!!
?
The royal undisturbed sleep of the king is similar
To the sleep of an ordinary servitor,
The ground which a noble brahmin treads
is similar to the ground where an untouchable lives.
?
The sun shines equally on an elephant
and on a lowly street cur,
For the virtuous and the vicious alike,
saviour is the sacred name of Shri venkateshwara?
?
Notes: 1. Brahmam -? Brahman, the supreme Being, the all-pervading
