paTTina dellA brahmamu
In this song Annamaiah explains the nature of people. He says that
some are ignorant, some are money-minded , some are lustful and some are
totally immersed with family but none is mindful of spirituality.

Ignorant person feels that whatever he takes up

ghana yAchakunaku kanakamE brahmamu
tanuvE brahmamu taruvaliki
enaya kAmuna kintulE brahmamu
tana lO veligETi tatvambElA ||
|
A beggar considers gold only as God. Money-minded people
consider that their body is ultimate. A lustful person thinks
that women are ultimate joy. Why are they bothered of the
spiritual light within themselves?

C 2 |
AkaTi vAniki annamE brahmamu
lOkamE brahmamu lOluniki
kaikoni karmiki kAlamE brahmamu
SrikAntuni pai chintadi ElA ||
|
Food is supreme to the hungry one.
Worldly activity is ultimate to the covetous one.
Time is God to the one immersed in work.
How can they contemplate on the Supreme Lord?

C 3 |
bhuvi samsAriki putrule brahmamu
navamindariki naDachEdi

bhAva matani krupE brahmamu ||
|
In this world children are ultimate to a family head.
They find new interests in their daily routine.
Only Sri Venkatesa's grace is the supreme bliss to
his devotees.
