kadina thada kumpa nEr ena vaLarum iru kongai mEl vizhu kalavi tharukinRa mAtharodu uRavAdi: Making love to the whores and falling over their strong, wide, pot-like and bloating breasts,

kana aLaka panthiyAkiya nizhal thanil irunthu thEn umizh kani ithazhai menRu thAdanai seyalAlE: resting under the shade of their thick tuft of hair, munching their kovvai-fruit-like lips that taste sweet like honey, patting them gently as defined in the text of erotica,

thudi idai nudanga vAL vizhi kuzhai pora nirampa mUdiya thukil nekizha vaNdu kOkila(m) mayil kAdai thoni ezha: seeing their hand-drum-like waist caving in, their sword-like eyes fighting with the swinging ear-studs, their fully-covering sari loosening and falling down, and various chirping sounds of beetle, cuckoo, peacock and partridge emanating from their throat,

vizhainthu kodu nakam isainthu thOL misai thuyila (a)vasa inpa mEvuthal ozhivEnO: I have been willingly accepting marks of sharp and crooked nails on my body; why can I not shun the pursuit of the blissful pleasure of sleeping on their shoulders?

vadivudaiya ampikApathi kaNapathi siRanthu vAzh thada vayali nakar kunRa mA nakar uRaivOnE: The handsome Lord Agneeswarar (SivA) and the truthful Lord GaNapathi* are seated in the famous place VayalUr, which is also Your abode along with KundRakkudi**, Oh Lord!

vakai vakai pukazhnthu vAsavan ari piramar chanthra cUriyar vazhi paduthal kaNdu vAzhvu aruL perumALE.: Extolling You in various ways, Indra, Lord VishNu, Brahma, the Moon and the Sun offer worship, and seeing their devotion, You granted them prosperity, Oh Great One!

* The presiding Lord SivA in VayalUr is known as Agneeswarar; VinAyagar is known as the Truthful Ganapathi.

** KundRakkudi is in RAmanAthapuram district, 7 miles west of KAraikudi. It has another name called MayUramalai.
