thiruchiRRambalam

Meaning:
Oh the Oldest thing of the oldest things ! The
recently named latest of the newest things ! We, Your
disciplined slaves, who got Yourself as our Lord,
would bow down to the foot of your slaves; would
become friends of them only; One like them only would
become our husband; we would serve the way he likingly
tells. If you, our King, bless us this way we are free
from any unfulfilment.

I said I gave my body - became far off from guru's teachings
I said I gave my mind - became far off from the linga
I said I gave my wealth - became far off from the devotees
There is nothing more disasterous than the disaster I got ito by saying "I did for You", kUDalasangamadEva ! - basavaNNa
