Lyrics Meaning In English

Detailed English Meaning of the Telugu Christian Song

This song is a deep expression of worship, gratitude, surrender, and remembrance of God’s sacrifice. The singer acknowledges that God’s love and sacrifice are so great that no amount of praise, possessions, or human effort could ever repay Him. Throughout the song, God is described as King of kings, Lord of lords, the unique and eternal God, giver of life, shepherd, unchanging God, and Creator.

1. నిత్యము స్తుతించినా — “Even if I praise You forever”

నిత్యము స్తుతించినా
నీ ఋణము తీర్చలేను
సమస్తము నీకిచ్చినా
నీ త్యాగము మరువలేను

English meaning:

“Even if I praise You continually, I can never repay what I owe You.
Even if I give everything I have to You, I can never forget Your sacrifice.”

The opening expresses a profound sense of gratitude and spiritual indebtedness to God.

The songwriter is saying that God's goodness is beyond human repayment. A person may worship God every day, pray constantly, serve others, or surrender everything he possesses, but none of these things can truly equal the value of God's love and sacrifice.

The phrase “నీ త్యాగము” (nee tyāgamu) means “Your sacrifice.” In the Christian context, this can be understood especially as a reference to Christ's sacrificial love and giving of His life for humanity.

The thought is not that God demands repayment like a financial debt. Rather, it expresses the overwhelming feeling:

“Lord, You have done so much for me that I can never adequately repay You. Therefore, my whole life should become an expression of gratitude.”

2. రాజా రాజా రాజా రాజాధి రాజువు నీవు

రాజా రాజా రాజా రాజాధి రాజువు నీవు
దేవా దేవా దేవాది దేవుడవు

English meaning:

“You are King, King, King—the King above all kings.
You are God, God, the God above all gods.”

This is a declaration of God's supreme authority and sovereignty.

“రాజాధి రాజు” — King of Kings

The title means that God is not merely one ruler among many. He is proclaimed as the highest King and ultimate authority.

Human rulers may have power for a limited time, but God's authority is presented as eternal.

“దేవాది దేవుడు” — God of gods

This is an expression of God's uniqueness and supremacy. The singer is declaring that there is no one who can compare with Him.

The repetition—

“రాజా రాజా రాజా”
“దేవా దేవా”

—adds emotional intensity. It sounds like an overflowing declaration of worship rather than merely a statement of information.

---

3. అద్వితీయ దేవుడా — “O Unique God”

అద్వితీయ దేవుడా
ఆది అంతములై యున్నవాడా

English meaning:

“O incomparable/unique God,
You are the One who is the beginning and the end.”

“అద్వితీయ దేవుడా”

అద్వితీయ (advitīya) means unique, incomparable, without another like Him.

The singer recognizes that God cannot be replaced or compared with anyone else.

“ఆది అంతములై యున్నవాడా”

This means:

“You are the beginning and the end.”

It expresses God's eternal nature. He existed before creation and remains beyond the limits of human time.

The idea is that God is not merely present somewhere within history. He stands over the whole of creation and time.

---

4. అంగలార్పును నాట్యముగా మార్చివేసిన మా ప్రభు

అంగలార్పును నాట్యముగా
మార్చివేసిన మా ప్రభు

English meaning:

“Our Lord, who has turned our mourning into dancing.”

This is one of the most beautiful images in the song.

“అంగలార్పు” refers to mourning, grief, sorrow, or deep lamentation.

“నాట్యము” means dance.

So the picture is:

Sorrow → Joy
Mourning → Dancing
Tears → Celebration

The songwriter is remembering God's ability to transform painful circumstances and bring hope, joy, restoration, and celebration.

It does not necessarily mean that every problem disappears immediately. Rather, it expresses faith that God can transform the emotional and spiritual condition of a person who has gone through sorrow.

The phrase “మా ప్రభు” — “our Lord” makes the statement personal. This is not simply theology about God; it is testimony about what the singer believes God has done.

---

5. జీవమైన దేవుడా — “Living God”

జీవమైన దేవుడా
జీవమిచ్చిన నాథుడా

English meaning:

“O living God,
O Lord who gave me life.”

The singer now focuses on God as the source of life.

“జీవమైన దేవుడు”

This means “the living God.”

God is presented as living, active, and personally involved rather than distant or lifeless.

“జీవమిచ్చిన నాథుడా”

This means:

“O Lord who gave me life.”

The word జీవము (jīvamu) means life.

There is a beautiful double meaning here: God is the giver of physical life, but in Christian understanding, He is also the giver of spiritual life and salvation.

Therefore, the singer's gratitude goes deeper than:

“God gave me existence.”

It can also express:

“God gave me new life.”

---

6. జీవజలముల బుగ్గ యొద్దకు — “To the spring of living waters”

జీవజలముల బుగ్గ యొద్దకు
నన్ను నడిపిన కాపరి

English meaning:

“You are the Shepherd who led me
to the spring/fountain of living waters.”

This section uses the powerful biblical picture of God as a Shepherd.

“కాపరి” — Shepherd

A shepherd:

• guides the sheep
• protects them
• provides food and water
• searches for them when they wander
• leads them to safety
• watches over them

Therefore, calling God “కాపరి” (kāpāri) means recognizing Him as someone who guides, protects, provides for, and cares for His people.

“జీవజలములు” — Living waters

జీవజలము literally means living water.

It represents spiritual refreshment, renewal, satisfaction, and life that comes from God.

The picture is beautiful:

A person may be spiritually thirsty, lost, exhausted, or wandering. But the Shepherd does not abandon that person. He leads them toward the source of life and refreshment.

So this verse communicates:

“Lord, when I did not know where to go, You guided me. You brought me toward the source of true life and spiritual nourishment.”

---

7. మార్పులేని దేవుడా — “Unchanging God”

మార్పులేని దేవుడా
మాకు సరిపోయినవాడా

English meaning:

“O unchanging God,
You are the One who is sufficient for us.”

“మార్పులేని దేవుడు”

This means “the unchanging God.”

Human circumstances change. People change. Relationships change. Wealth changes. Positions change. Life itself goes through different seasons.

But the singer declares that God remains constant.

This gives the song a strong message of security and trust.

“మాకు సరిపోయినవాడా”

This can be understood as:

“You are sufficient for us.”

The idea is not simply that God gives us everything we want.

It is deeper:

“God Himself is enough.”

The singer is declaring that God's presence and provision are sufficient even when circumstances are uncertain.

---

8. మాటతోనే సృష్టినంతా కలుగజేసిన పూజ్యుడా

మాటతోనే సృష్టినంతా
కలుగజేసిన పూజ్యుడా

English meaning:

“O worthy One, who brought the entire creation into existence by Your word.”

This verse emphasizes God as Creator.

“మాటతోనే” — “By Your word”

The singer describes God's creative power as so great that His word itself is sufficient to bring creation into existence.

The idea is that God's authority does not depend on human effort or physical limitations.

“సృష్టినంతా కలుగజేసిన”

This means:

“The One who brought the whole creation into existence.”

Everything that exists is ultimately attributed to God's creative power.

“పూజ్యుడా”

This means “Worthy One,” “One worthy of worship,” or “Revered One.”

Therefore, the final thought of the verse is:

“Because You are the Creator of everything, You alone are worthy of our reverence and worship.”

---

Overall Meaning of the Song

The entire song moves through several dimensions of God's character.

God is the One we cannot repay

The song begins with gratitude:

“Even if I praise You forever, I cannot repay You.”

This establishes the central theme: God's love and sacrifice are greater than anything the singer can give back.

God is the supreme King

Then the singer declares:

“You are King of Kings and God above all.”

This recognizes God's authority and sovereignty.

God is eternal and unique

The song calls Him:

“The incomparable God, the Beginning and the End.”

This emphasizes God's eternal nature and uniqueness.

God transforms sorrow into joy

The singer remembers:

“You turned mourning into dancing.”

This expresses God's restoration and ability to bring hope out of suffering.

God gives life

The song then declares:

“You are the living God who gave me life.”

God is recognized as the source of both life and spiritual renewal.

God is the Shepherd

The singer says:

“You led me to the living waters.”

This portrays God as the Shepherd who guides, protects, provides, and refreshes His people.

God never changes

The next declaration is:

“You are the unchanging God.”

This gives the believer confidence that God's character remains dependable even when life changes.

God is the Creator

Finally:

“You created the whole creation by Your word.”

The song ends by returning to God's creative authority and worthiness of worship.

Simple English Summary

In simple words, the song is saying:

“Lord, I can never repay You for everything You have done for me. Even if I praise You forever and give You everything I have, Your sacrifice is too great for me to repay. You are the highest King and the supreme God. You are eternal, unique, and incomparable. You have taken my sorrow and brought me joy. You are the living God who gave me life. Like a loving Shepherd, You have guided me to the living waters and cared for me. You never change, and You are sufficient for me. You created everything by Your word, and therefore You alone are worthy of my worship.”

Central message

The heart of this song is not merely asking God for blessings. It is about recognizing who God is and responding with gratitude and worship.

The progression is essentially:

Gratitude → Worship → God's greatness → Restoration → Life → Guidance → Faithfulness → Creation → Surrender.

It is a song that says, in essence:

“Everything I am and everything I have comes from You. I cannot repay Your sacrifice, so I will give You my lifelong worship.”
