Meaning:
O My Mind!
To drink the nectarine juice of story of SrIrama - praised by this tyagaraja- who shines on the Earth along with janaki, lakshmana, bharata and others, is equal to (ruling) a kingdom.
(a) it indeed bestows the fruits of purushartha;
(b) it is the veritable abode of courage, bliss and comfort;
(c) it indeed is the boat which enables one to cross the flaming ocean of Worldly Existence - bound by actions;
(d) it indeed is the destroyer of the (evil effects of) kali yuga.

Brindha should know by now that learning the meaning and correct pronunciation of words in a lyric is essential while singing on stage. She almost always messes up the lyrics. Now the first word of Anupallavi is Bhamamani that means Jewel of (a) women (Janaki). Brindha often sings as Bharama, literally meaning weighty! (e.g., from @26 to 27 and beyond). And the same in case of the first word of Charanam - Dharmaddakhila which she pronounces as Dharama!
