“Bhaavayami Gopalabaalam” Lyrics



Lyricist: Taallapaaka Annamacharya
Singer: M.S. Subbulakshmi

భావయామి గోపాలబాలం మనస్సేవితం
తత్పదం చింతయేయం సదా ||భావయామి||

కటి ఘటిత మేఖలా ఖచిత మణి ఘంటికా ||2||
పటల నిన దేనా విభ్రాజమానం  ||కటి ఘటిత||
కుటిల పద ఘటిత సంకుల శింజితేనతం ||2||
చటుల నటనా సముజ్వల విలాసం ||కుటిల||  ||భావయామి||

నిరతకర కలితనవనీతం ||2||
బ్రహ్మాది సుర నికర భావనా శోభిత పదం ||నిరతకర||
తిరు వేంకటాచలస్థితం ||2|| 
నుపమం హరిం ||తిరు|| 
పరమ పురుషం గోపాలబాలం ||2|| ||భావయామి||

Meaning is as follows:
Bhavayami Gopala Balam ... Mana Ssevitham,
Tat padam chintayeyam sada
(This mind bows down in obescience to Gopala in his form as a little child and always contemplates on his lotus feet)

Kati ghatitha mekhala , khachita mani ghantika
(Little Krishna is wearing a mekhala (ornament) on his hip which is studded with with jewels)

Patala ninadena vibharaja manam
(he has a radiant charm ...and appears resplendent due to the tinkling of his ornaments)

Kutilapada ghatitha sankula shinjitenatam
(he makes crooked and uneven steps and being the Lord himself ....
he is confused with his inability to make straight and proper steps)

Chatula natana samujwala vilasam
(Even with his uneven steps , his unsteady gait resembles a graceful dance!)

Nirathakara kalita navaneetham
(butter overflows from his little hands as he walks,)

Bramhadi, sura nikara bhavana shobita padam
(Lord Brahma, all the gods and humans have assembled on this auspicious occassion
to see the little lord !)

Thiruvenkatachala sthitam anupamam harim
paramapurusham gopala balam
(Annamaiyaa praises Bala Gopala as the unparalleled supreme perfect Lord who is an excellent actor and plays his role of a little child stealing the hearts of his devotees! )
