Ekkuva Kulajudina Lyrics in English – Annamayya Keerthana
ekkuva kulajudaina heena kulajudaina
nikkamerigina maha nityude ghanudu || pallavi ||
Meaning: One may belong to a high caste or low caste, if he adheres to truth, he alone is great.
vedamulu chadiviyunu vimukhudai hari bhakti
yadarinchani somayaji kante
yediyunu leni kulaheenudainanu vishnu
padamulu sevinchu bhaktude ghanudu || ch 1 ||
Meaning: An illiterate low caste person may not have regular habits but if he worships the sacred feet of lord vishnu, he is greater than a somayaji well versed in vedas but has no devotion to Hari.
paramamagu vedanta pathana dorikiyu sada
haribhakti leni sanyasikante
saravi malina antyajati kulajudaina
sarasi vishnuni vedaku natade ghanudu || ch 2 ||
Meaning: A low caste person devoid of regular habits seeking for the grace of lord hari is greater than a monk adept in upanishads but has no devotion to Sri Hari.
viniyu chadiviyunu sri vibhuni dasudugaka
tanuvu vepuchunundu tapasikante
enaleni tiru venkatesu prasadanna
manubhavinchina yatadappude ghanudu || ch 3 ||
Meaning: An ordinary person who enjoys holy ‘prasad’ of Lord Venkateswara with devotion is greater than an ascetic who tortures his body in penance but is not a humble servant of lord Venkatesa, the consort of Sri Lakshmi.
