Background:
Annamayya in this kIrtana prays to Sri Maha Lakshmi to look after all the creatures by reminding HER great qualities to shower the mercy on all of us .
Meaning:
pa:
Oh Mother ! Jaya lakshmi - the goddess of victory, varalakshmi - the goddess of boons, sangrAma vIra lakshmi - the goddess of courage, Lord Hari (lord Narayana) got you as HIS Love(priyurAlu).
Ca 1 :
Ca 2 :
Oh Mother ! You are the Best one of those who emerged along with Moon (thus SHE is the sister of Moon) from the milky ocean. You are the Best protector of even the Brahma (four faced god) itself. You are always associated with the lord GOvinda (Narayana)....like wise please stay in our house (mind) also.
Ca 3 :
Oh Mother ! You are the beautiful and charming Golden Idol with the sixteen artistic beauties. You are the fresh bud of the everlasting VEdAs(means the essence of vedas who praise Narayana). You are in front of us with your consort SrI VEnkaTEswara. Please consider us as your belongings.
PS: When milky ocean was churned for Amrutam(which makes one immortal), so many precious things along with Halahalam (the dangerous poison )emerged from it. Some of them are Moon, white elephant, white horse, kousthubha diamond, etc...and SRI MAHA LAKSHMI . Hence annamayya describes Sri Maha Lakshmi as the sister of Moon.

Sir,
I am a ardent liker of Annamacharya Samkeertanas.I am a Software Engineer.My life upto now was spent in understanding science and technology.But I want to learn the meaning of Annamacharya kritis thereby increasing my awareness of devotional world and telugu language.For this I want to depend on some good people like you.Please put the meanings of Annamacharya kritis explaining difficult words in todays language.This will help lot of telugu devotees.You kept only few keertana's meanings.Please make it as complete as possible.God bless you.
Best interpretation on a song on the Jaganmatha. She is not separate from the Lord and with Her blessings alone one gets rid of Maya and attains Moksha.
Thanks for sharing.
