......... Meaning .........

kamala mukap piRai nuthal pon silai ena vacchira kaNai nal kayal ena pon suzhalum vizhik kuzhal kAr pOl: Their face is like the lotus; their forehead is like the crescent moon; their eye-brows are like the bow; their beautiful rolling eyes are like sturdy arrows and fish of a great breed; their hair is like the dark cloud;

kathir tharaL oppiya thasanam kamuku kaLam puya kazhai pon kara kamalaththu ukir viralin kiLi sErum: their teeth are like bright pearls; their neck is like the betel-nut tree's branch; their shoulders are smooth like the bamboo; their reddish fingernails on their lotus-like hands are like the beaks of parrots;

kumari thanath thithalai malaikku isali iNaik kalasam enak kuvi mulai satRu asaiya maNik kalan Ada: these youthful women's bosom, stained with acne spots, compete in size with the mountain, jutting out like twin pots, and when the curved-in bosom heaves slightly, the ornaments made of precious gems swing a little;

kodi idai pattu udai nadai pon saraNa mayil kamanam enak kunaki poruL paRi (p)pavarukku uRavAmO: their slender creeper-like waist is wrapped around by cloth made of silk; their petite feet display a gait that looks like that of the peacock; and these whores flirtingly indulge in sweet talk and grab their suitors' belongings; is it proper for me to have liaison with such whores?

thimilai udukku udan murasu paRai thimithith thimithim ena dtimi dimi dit tikur thimithith oli thALam: Against the background beats of various drums like 'thimilai' and hand-drums sounding "thimithith thimithim ena dtimi dimi dit tikur thimithith",

sekakaNa sek kaNa kathaRath thiduthidu enak kodu mudi eN thikai silai pattu uvari pada: and the din of "sekakaNa sek kaNa", the peaks of several mountains in all the eight directions collapsed with a thundering noise; the seas were stirred up;

silai kOdith thumilam udatRu asurar mudi podi pada raththam uL peruka: the roaring demons, who fought fiercely with their bows bent, were killed and their heads smashed; their blood gushed and spread throughout the battlefield;

thoku thasai thottu alakai u (N)Nath thodum vElA: and the heaps of flesh were preyed upon by the devils when You wielded Your spear, Oh valorous One!

thuvani thinaip punam maruvi kuRa makaLaik kaLavu mayal sukamodu aNaiththa aruNa kirip perumALE.: You went to the millet-field filled with the sound of chirping birds and stealthily enticed VaLLi, the damsel of the KuRavAs; and You hugged her pleasurably with profound passion! You are seated in the mountain in ThiruvaNNAmalai, Oh Great One!
