Shriman Narayana (with lyrics) by hindudevotionalstotram

Sriman Narayana Shriman Narayana is a beautiful Tirupati Venkateswara Balaji (Lord Vishnu) composed by Annamacharya or Sri Tallapaka Annamayya(1408-1503). Sri Annamacharya is considered as the Pada-kavita Pitaamaha (Grand old man of song writing) is a Carnatic composer and Telugu song writer, who had composed lots of wonderful Sankeertanas (a type of Hindu devotional Bhajan song) in praise of Lord Venkateswara, the presiding deity of Tirupati Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, Andhra Pradesh.Sriman Narayana is one of the beautiful compositions of Annamacharya – the Ragam is Bauli and Talam Adi

Pallavi

Shriman Narayana Sriman Narayana

Shriman Narayana Ni Shripadame Sharanu

Meaning: Narayana is never without His consort, Goddess Lakshmi. Goddess Lakshmi is referred to as "Shri". Even in addressing people, we call him "Shrimaan...." this is just to ensure that the person being referred to is blessed with the grace of Goddess Lakshmi. Here, Nayarayana is also referred similarly. And, the addressing goes on for three times. I  bow to such a feet. I take shelter in such a feet.

Anupallavi

Kamalasati Mukhakamala Kamalahita

Kamalapriya Kamalekshana

Kamalasanahita Garu.Dagamana Shri

Kamalanabha Ni Padakamalame Sharanu || 1 ||

Meaning: His wife is Kamala - Goddess Lakshmi, who sits on the lotus flower. He has the face like a lotus flower. He tends lotus. He loves lotus flower. He has eyes like lotus flowers. He sits on a lotus posture. He rides on Garuda, the eagle. He has a lotus flower coming out of his Navel. I pray for your lotus feet.

Caranam

Parama Yogijana Bhagadheya Shri

Paramapurusha Paratpara

Paramatma Paramanurupa Shri

TiruvenKatagirideva Sharanu || 2 ||

Meaning : He is the one who brings good fortune  to yogis. He is the supreme one. He is the great soul who is everywhere. He has the shape of the atom. He is the one who makes the atom what it is. He is the one who is there in Tiruvenkatagiri - Tiruppati.

Interesting points to note from the Kriti: 

Shriman Narayana : His name gets addressed three times to start with. This is a song which is typically sung as 'suprabhata' to Lord Venkateswara of Tiruppati. The Lord Venkateswara is like a King. And, it is a typical thing to address the king three times as the king comes into the court. Shri Annamacharya has structured the kriti as if he is addressing the Lord coming into the court where thousands of devotees are waiting. And, he is addressing the Lord three times. 

Kamala : The usage of this term in the anupallavi is beautiful.'Kamala' is used a total of eight times in the Anupallavi. "Srimannarayana" in sanskrit is called "Ashtakshara" - the mantra with 8 letters in it. It is only fitting that the Kamalavasa's connection with Lotus flower is mentioned eight times : 

Kamala Sati - with a wife "Kamala"

Mukha Kamala - with a face like lotus

Kamala hita - He does good deed like a lotus flower; He is soft like a lotus flower; He tends to Lotus

Kamala Pirya - He loves lotus

Kama Lekshana - with eyes like lotus flower

Kamalasanahita - in the lotus posture

Kamala nabane - with a navel from which a lotus flower springs up

Pada kamalame - The one with the lotus feet 

Paramanu rupa : Shri Annamacharya lived in the 15th century. From 1408 to 1503. That time, the scientific world did not even know of 'Atom'. But, here is the 15th century poet and he is beautifully talking about the basic building block of life and how Tiruvenkatapati is there in that building block also.
