Annamaiah, in this song, says that devotion to Lord Venkatesa only bestows peace of mind, washes away all sins, and dispels all evil thoughts.

P	sakala Santi karamu sarvESa neepai bhakti sarvESa prakaTa mai mAku nabbe batikimchu nidiye sarvESa ||	Oh lord of the universe, devotion to you bestows abundant peace of mind. We are blessed with devotion to you. That only sustains us. ||
C	Manasulo pApabuddhi mariyemta dalachina ninudalachinamtane nee raunu kanugonna paapamulu kaDaleni vai naanu ghanuDa ninnu joochi te kaDaku dolagunu ||	All the evil thoughts rising in mind vanish the moment we think of you. Even the endless sins vanish if we see the great lord. ||
C	cheta nanTi pAtakAlu sEnagAne jEsinAnu Atala neeku mrokkitE nanniyu bAyu ghAtala jevula vinagA nanTina pApamu neetiTo nee katha vintE nimishAna bAyunu ||	I did innumerable sins, but they disappear if I take refuge in you. Sin of hearing ghastly crimes is dispelled the moment your stories are heard sincerely. ||
C	kAyamuna jEsETi karmapu pApamu lella kAyapunee mudrala chE grakkuna veeDu yEyeDa vEnkatESa yEyE pataka maina laya maina nee SaraNA gati chE naNugu ||	Sins committed by this body are washed away by the stamping of your symbols sankha (conch) and chakra (discus). Even the ghastly sins are dispelled away by surrendering to the Lord Venkatesa. ||
