Lyrics for "Bantureeti Kolu"

Pallavi : bantureeti Koluviyavayya rAma
Anu Pallavi: tunta vinti vAni modalaina madA dula gotti nela koola cheyu
nija
Charanam : romAnchamane ghana kanchukamu rAmbabhaktiyane mudra billayu
rAamanAmamane varakhadga michchi rAjillunayya
thyAgarAjanuta

Meaning; to the best of my knowlege:
In this song Sri Thyagaraja pleads with Rama to give him the post of a guard
for rama; symbolically meaning that he always wants to be in Sri rama's
sannidhi.
He says in anupallavi, the guard's post should be such that he is empowered
to destroy all the demons which are arishadvargas (kama, krodha, lobha,
moha, mada, matsarya) and since guard is empowered to do so, he needs such a
guard's post.
In charanam, he says, he should be blessed with the emblem of Ramabhakti,
given a sword called rama nama to do that kind of a job.
This is a rough meaning of the song. More learned people can educate me too.
