Meaning: (From T.K. Govinda Rao’s Book and www.karnatik.com):
O Lord (“pathe”) of Seetha! I have (“yunnaanuraa”) placed my trust (“siddhaantamani”)  in you.

The other day in the presence (“chentane”) of Anjaneya (“vaataatmaju”) and your other cherished devotees (“aadula”), you revealed (“jupi”) yourself to me (“varninchina”) in all your glory (“mahimalella nindaaru”) casting a benevolent (“premajuchi” or “pedda manasu jesi”) look at me (“naapai”), and assured me (“nee paluku”) that I have nothing to fear (“bhayametinanna maata”)  in this (“ee”) world (“mahini”).

How wonderful and comforting! I have nothing to fear. I cherish those pregnant words like a treasure!
