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

kOnga mukaiyu(m) meliya veengu puLaka kaLapam Enthu(m) kuvadu kuzhaiyumpadi kAthal kUrnthu: The breasts of these whores are plumpier than the buds of kOngu tree (cherry plum); they are in a state of ecstasy, having been smeared with sandalwood paste, and look like mountains; the excessive passion makes them mellow;

kuzhaiyai amaLi thOynthu kulavum iniya thEngu kalavi amuthu uNdu: lying on a bed, spread with fresh flowers, and cuddling them, imbibing the sweet nectar of union, filled up to the brim,

iyal mAthar vAngu pakazhi vizhiyai mOnthu pakalum iravum vAyntha thuyilai mikavum thaNiyAtha vAnjai udaiya adimai: sniffing the arrow-like eyes wielded by the beautiful women, and feeling increasingly sleepy day and night, I have become a bonded slave to the unquenchable thirst of desire;

neeNda piRavi alaiyai neenthi amala adi vanthu adaivEnO: when will I be able to swim across the vast sea of birth and attain Your unblemished and hallowed feet?

Ongal anaiya periya sOngu thakar a(m) makaram Ongu uthathiyin muzhukum poru cUrum Oynthu piraman veruva: Huge ships looking like mountains, many male sharks and female makara fish are copiously seen in the sea in which the demon SUran hid as a mango tree; he grew weary fighting the war and BrahmA became very scared,

vAyntha kuruku malaiyil Urnthu mayil athu ulavum thani vElA: when You mounted the peacock and roamed about in Mount Kazhugumalai*, Oh Lord with the matchless spear!

vEngai adavi maRavar Enga vanithai uruka vEngai vadivu maruvum kumarEsA: The hunters living in the tiger-infested forest were perplexed and the damsel VaLLi's heart melted when You stood in the disguise of a neem tree, Oh Lord KumarA!

vENdum adiyar pulavar vENda ariya poruLai vENdum aLavil uthavum perumALE.: As the entreating devotees and poets stand praying before You, the rarest thing that is beyond seeking is bestowed upon them by You to their heart's content, Oh Great One!

* Kazhugumalai is near the town, KOyilpatti.
