Meaning:
shrI tyAgarAja wants affirmation of the Lord that he is His true devotee.

O Lord, the cause of the entire Universe, I cannot bear even for a moment the thought of myself not being yours.

O Lord, the lotus eyed eternal one, you are the ancient one and Lord of the celestials, who sides with brAhmaNas and livelihood of the pious people.

O Lord, you are eternal, embodiment of truth, valour, exceedingly beautiful and with limitless might, you cause unceasing joyness in your devotee's minds.
I tyAgarAjA, who worships you, asks you to utter that I am your true servant.
