mEkam oththa kuzhalAr silaip puruva vALi oththa vizhiyAr mukak kamala meethu pottu idu azhakAr kaLaththil aNi vadam Ada mEru oththa mulaiyAr: Their hair is dark like the black cloud. Their eye-brows are curved like the bows. Their eyes are sharp like the arrow. On their lotus-like face, the decorative mark sits beautifully. With the chain hanging from their neck heaving, they display their prominent bosom that looks like Mount MEru.

paLappaLa ena mArpu thuththi puyavAr vaLaik kadakam veeRidath thuvaLu(m) nUlodu oththa idai udai mAthar thOkai pakshi nadaiyAr: On their shiny chest, the decolorisation of the skin is evident. With the bangles and bracelets neatly arranged in a stack on their arms, these women show their thread-like slender waist that caves in. Their gait is like that of the peacock with a plume of feathers.

pathaththil idu nUpurak kuralkaL pAda A(a)kath thukilkaL sOra nal theru udE nadiththu mulai vilai kURic cUthaka sarasam OdE eththi: With their anklets making a jingling sound and the attire on their body loosening, they come dancing along the nice streets to negotiate a price for their breasts and resort to treacherous and provocative tricks ensnaring the men.

varuvOrai naththi vizhiyAl marutti mayal thUL maruththu i(t)tu uyirE paRippavarkaL uRavAmO: Showing flirtatious affection to their suitors, these women entice them with their eyes and administer potions of seductive passion. These whores grab the lives of their suitors, and how can a liaison with such women do any good to me?

sEkaNac chekaNa thOthimith thikuda dAdu duttamada deeku thaththokurthi theetha kaththimitha thOvu dukkai maNi murasu Othai: The hand-drums, bells and drums made a continuous noise sounding "sEkaNac chekaNa thOthimith thikuda dAdu duttamada deeku thaththokurthi theetha kaththimitha thO";

thEsam utka ara Ayirac chiramum mULi pattu maka(a) mEru ukka avuNar theevu kettu muRaiyO enak kathaRa vidum vElA: the entire world was terrified; the thousand hoods of the Serpent AdhisEshan got blunted; the huge mount MEru was shattered; all the islands where the demons had settled were destroyed, and everyone over there screamed in distress as You wielded Your spear, Oh Lord!

Akamaththi pala kAraNaththi enai eeNa saththi ari Asanaththi sivan Akam utRa sivakAmi paththiniyin murukOnE: She belongs to the VEdAs and their scriptures; She is the Primeval Principle for many causes; She is the powerful Shakthi who gave birth to me; She is endowed with the throne of the lion; She is SivagAmi, concorporate on the left side of Lord SivA; and You are the child delivered by this Virtuous Goddess, Oh MurugA!

AraNaRku maRai thEdi itta thiru mAl makaL siRumi mOka chithra va(L)Li Asai patRi aruNAsalaththin makizh perumALE.: He restored the stolen VEdAs* to Lord Brahma; She is the daughter of that Lord VishNu, who was in deep love with You; desiring to join that beautiful damsel, VaLLi, You came to be seated with relish in ThiruvaNNAmalai, Oh Great One!

* A demon named SOmukan stole the four vEdAs from Lord Brahma and hid himself under the seas. Lord VishNu assumed the incarnation of a huge shark, entered the sea, killed SOmukan and restored the VEdAs to Brahma.
