Bhārave Bhārati Ramaṇa — “Is it a burden to you, O husband of Bhāratī?” — a pada of Vijaya Dasaru on Vāyu, the life-wind, praised through his three incarnations: Hanumān, Bhīma and Madhva.
Is it a burden to you, O husband of Bharati — is saving me a burden to you? The devotee pleads with Vayu, who bears the world yet is entreated as a compassionate lord.
