2 – japamEmO tapamEmO aparAdhamEmO – This is a very cryptic statement and is subject to more than one interpretation. In some books, it has been translated as "I do not know japa or tapa; is it an unpardonable offence?"; in some other books, this has been translated as "is it my faulty penance or have I offended You?".

3 – kunkuma – this kRti is in nAyaki bhAva. kunkuma is an important symbol of a sumangali.

4 – tOshimpaka ennALLu tOcunE – In some books, this has been taken to mean 'how many days can I spend without satisfying your mind?' Considering the wordings of following caraNas, particularly, caraNa 15 wherein prahlAda asks the Lord to be united with him, 'making happy' (tOshimpaka) would be applicable to the Lord. Accordingly, it has been translated. In my opinion, 'tOshimpaka' is not in negative form.

In all books, it is given as ‘tOcunE’ (meaning ‘to occur’). This word is also spelt as ‘tOtsunE’. This word (tOtsunE) sounds similar to ‘tOstunE’ - derived from ‘tOyu’, which has the meaning ‘spend’, ‘while away’. If so, the meaning given in the book ‘how many days can I spend’ may be correct. In that case, ‘tOshimpaka’ would be in negative form, meaning ‘without making happy’. Accordingly, this caraNa may be translated as ‘how long will I while away without making You happy’.
