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

koLLai Asaik kArikaL pAthaka valla mAyak kArikaL: They are extremely avaricious; they are capable of committing sorcerous and sinful acts;

cURaikaL koLLum Ayak kArikaL veeNikaL vizhiyAlE kollum leelaik kArikaL: they are raiders like the whirlwind; they are utterly useless; they fool around with their flippant and killing eyes;

yAraiyum vellum mOkak kArikaL cUthu sol kovvai vAy nittUrikaL: their passionate advances can lure anyone; with their red lips like the kovvai fruit, these wicked women utter deceitful words;

mEl vizhum avar pOlE uLLa nO(va)vaiththu uRavAdiyar: they feign love outwardly, falling all over, but carry on relationship in a hurting manner;

allai nEr oppA(m) mana thOshikaL uL virOthak kArikaL mAyaiyil uzhal nAyEn uyyavE: the blemish in their heart is like darkness; they have inbuilt antagonism; and I have been roaming around, like a dog, in the delusory circle of such whores! To rescue me,

pon thOLkaLum ARu iru kaiyum neepath thAr mukam ARum mun uLLa njAnap pOthamum nee thara varuvAyE: kindly come to bless me with the knowledge and intellect of meditating upon Your broad shoulders, the twelve hands, the garland of kadappa flowers and the six hallowed faces, Oh Lord!

kaLLa mAyath thArukan mA mudi thuLLa neelath thOkaiyin meethu: In order to knock off the big head of the demon, ThArukan, who was full of deviousness and sorcery, You mounted the blue peacock

oru kaiyil vEl thottu Eviya sEvaka murukOnE: and wielded the matchless spear from Your hand, Oh Mighty MurugA!

kallilE pon thAL padavE athu nalla rUpaththE vara: When the hallowed foot (of Lord RAmA) came in contact with a stone, it was transformed into a virtuous woman (AhalyA),

kAn idai kauvai theerap pOkum irAkavan marukOnE: and the misery that afflicted her in the forest was removed as RAmA walked along that way; You are the nephew of that RAmA!

theLLi EmutRu eeram mun Othiya sol vazhAmal: The thoughtful and pleasant promise* previously made was fulfilled without fail when

thAn oru vAn uRu selvi mArpil pUshaNamAy aNai maNavALA: DEvayAnai, the damsel who grew up in the celestial land, was hugged by You, as her Consort, cherishing her as a jewel on Your hallowed chest!

theLLum Enal sUzh puna(m) mEviya vaLLi vELaikkAra manOkara: To VaLLi, who was in the fully grown millet field, You served as a timely bodyguard as well as her sweetheart, Oh Lord!

thillai mElaik kOpuram mEviya perumALE.: You have chosen Your seat in the Western Tower of the Temple in Chidhambaram, Oh Great One!

* In their previous births, DEvayAnai and VaLLi, were born as the daughters of Lord VishNu; they were deeply in love with Lord Murugan. VishNu promised to them that, in their next birth, they would have Murugan as their consort.
