Meaning: (approximate)

P: O Kodandapani (Rama – who holds (pani) the bow-Kodanda)! Please give (“mosagumu-aiyya”) me the boons (wishes) I ask (“Korina”) of you.

A: You gave birth (“janaka”) to Brahma – who is seated (“Astra”) in a lotus (Varija).

You have the mark (Srivatsa) on your chest (anga) where mother Lakshmi (Sri) is seated.

You are the lord (ranga) of righteousness (Nishta).

C: Will you get time (“valadu needu”) to look after me (“nannu chouka seya”) amongst the legions of devotees (“Sarivarilona”) you have?

I keep thinking of you (“Marupu Jochi Yunnanu”). Please save me (“Kaapaadu”) with honor (“Manamutho”). You are like the water bearing cloud (“varivaha”) that rains and washed away the sins (“papaharana”) of the entire monkey tribe (“parichara vanara samuha”) – a reference to how Rama saved Sugreeva and helped them re-establish their kingdom.

You protected (“rakshaka”) the elephant (“kari” – reference to Gajendra). I pray to you O Lord who gives boons (“Varada”) Sri Venkateshwara… Please give me the boons I ask of you.
