Vemana – Telugu Poet

As you sing (again and again), the melody (raga) excels
As you eat Neem (again and again), it becomes sweeter
With practice, things become perfect
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!
ఆనగననగ రాగ మతిశయిల్లుచునుండు
తినగ తినగ వేము తియ్యనుండు
సాధనమున పనులు సమకూరు ధరలోన
విశ్వధాభిరామ, వినుర వేమ
