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

matha vem karikku iraNdu valu kompu enath thiraNdu vaLarum thanaththu aNintha maNi Aram: The string of precious gems adorns their plumpy and bulging breasts that look like two strong tusks of an enraged elephant;

vaLai sem kaiyil siRantha oLi kaNdu ni(nee)ththu ilangu vararum thikaiththu iranga varum mAnAr: they wear bangles on their reddish arms; looking at the brightness of these ornaments, even the wise ones who have completely renounced everything are awestruck, and their heart melts when these deer-like women pass by;

vitha ingitha priyangaL nakai konjuthal kuNangaL mikai kaNdu uRak kalangi maruLAthE: looking at the versatility of the pleasure-giving methods of these women and admiring their giggling and flirting capacity, a deep impression is made in the mind; I do not wish to be overcome by this delusory passion;

vi(t)tu sangai atRu uNarnthu valam vanthu unaip pukazhnthu mika vinju pon pathangaL tharuvAyE: I wish to get rid of this desire and to realise You without an iota of doubt; I wish to circumambulate You praising Your glory; and for that, kindly bless me with Your supreme and hallowed feet, Oh Lord!

nathiyum thiruk karanthai mathiyum chadaikku aNintha nadanampar utRu iruntha kayilAya nakam angaiyil pidungum asuran: He wears on His matted hair the river Gangai, the beautiful karanthai flower and the crescent moon; He is the dancing Lord NadarAjan, seated majestically on the Mount KailAsh which was shaken by the demon RaVaNan in an attempt to lift the mountain with his bare hands;

siraththodu angam nava thunga rathnam unthu thiraL thOLum sithaiyumpadikku or ampu thanai mun thoduththa koNdal thiRal sem kaN acchuthan than marukOnE: that RAvaNan's heads, body and strong shoulders, adorned with strings of precious gems of nine varieties, were all destroyed when He once wielded a unique arrow; His complexion is like the dark cloud; His eyes are reddish revealing His strength; and You are the nephew of that RAmA (Lord VishNu)!

thinamum karuththu uNarnthu surar vanthu uRap paNintha thiru ampalaththu amarntha perumALE.: The celestials know the value of worshipping You everyday; they come and prostrate at Your hallowed feet in Chidhambaram which is Your abode, Oh Great One!
