The poet says that he has attained the staus of Raama. mayaaptaM raamatvam. In what
way?

1) I wandered in towns and cities.
2) Rama wandered in the territory called janasthaana.
kanakamR^igatR^iSNaandhitadhiyaa
1) With the intellect blinded by the mirage
of gold.
2) With the intellect blinded by the desire
to get the golden deer.
vacho vai dehiiti pratipadamudashru pralabhitam .
1) vacho vai dehiiti - with the words give, give.
crying like this on every step with tears.
2) vacho vaidehiiti - with words vaidehi, vaidehi, iti.

kR^iitaalaM kaa bharturvadana-paripaaTiiSu ghaTanaa

Met enough faces of bad masters.
2) kR^iitaa laMkaabhartur vadana-paripaaTi -iSu
ghaTanaa
Confronted(iSu ghtanaa) the row of faces of laMkaapati or Raavana.
kushalavasutaa -
Rama got back
the
mother
of Kusha and Lava.
I did not get kushala (happiness) and vasutaa
(prosperity)
The poet is Jagnnaatha PaNDita who was
a very poor who finally landed in the court
of a Moghul King in Delhi.
The King proposed that he marry a beutiful
Muslim Girl called Lavangii.
Then Jagannatha PaNDita said.
lavangii kurangiidrigangiikarotu.
(let the deer-eyed lavangi accept
the proposal)
I also remember one line of one of his other
compositions -
sadyomunDita-matta-huuNa-chibuka-praspardhi naara~Ngakam.
The orange competing (in appearance) with the
just shaven face of a drunk Hoona(foreigner).
There are some other interesting verses composed
by him.
P.K.Ramakrishnan
