Holding hand  poured dhaare
Youth when husband’s prana   going  she
Fearing to see  wood is fate (daaru) she will cry

Have believed you only for you
Why doubt  jiva  soon leaves  within moment

4) narayana  if your name(nama)  only  is there:
Narayana  if your name only is there
Why is other  name ayya|

When  there is direct path

Why to use      hill   round about

When there is eight  wealth  festival meal
Why to eat    left  meals|

When there is touch  bead(parusha bead,sparsha nevalas(…………….?)) are there |
Why  to wash  mere chin(mere stone?)?  
When there is amrutha rice  in plate
Why to beg  and eat ?

When there is jiggery   in    hand

When there is rich neleyaadikeshava is there
Why desire of  small gods|
