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

chathurath tharai nOkkiya pUvodu: This lotus in the MUlAdhAra Centre has four petals and faces the four corners of the floor; beginning from that centre,

kadhiroth thida Akkiya gOLakai thazhaiya: the six (Kundalini) zones*, made up of the three major effulgences [namely, the Sun, the Moon and the Fire (Agni)], were cooled and flexed;

siva bAkkiya nAtaka anubUthi charaNak kazhal katti: then, the vision of the great cosmic dance that proffers the ultimate bliss of SivA was witnessed by me from Your lotus feet of refuge;

enANava malamatrida vAttiya: my two slags, namely, arrogance and possessiveness, were totally wiped out

ARiru sayilakkula meettiya thOLodu mukam ARung: by Your twelve mountain-like solid shoulders, six holy faces,

kadhir sutruga nOkkiya pAdhamu: and the feet around which there was a glow of halo protecting all lives,

mayiliR puRa nOkkiya nAmena: mounting the peacock, looking around everywhere as the saviour,

karuNaik kadal kAttiya kOlamum: Your majestic stature like the sea of compassion,

adiyEnai kanakath thinu nOk kinidhAy adiyavar muth thamizhAR pugavE: Your glance more endearing and precious than gold, making me sing Your glory in chaste Tamil like Your devotees,

para gathi petrida nOkkiya pArvaiyu maRavEnE: and Your choicest gaze that guided me towards my salvation can never be forgotten!

sidhaRath tharai nAtRisai bUdhara neriya: There was tremor in the earth and the mountains in the four directions shuddered and were smashed to pieces;

paRai mUrkkargaL mA mudi sidhaRa: the large heads of the evil demons who came to the war beating the drums were shattered;

kadalArp puRavE ayil viduvOnE: and the seas were stirred up into a roar when You wielded the Spear!

sivapaththini kUtrinai mOdhiya padha saththini: She is the Consort of Lord SivA; She is the powerful Shakthi who has the foot that kicked away Yaman, the God of Death;

mUththa vinAyagi jegam ippadi thotriya pArvathi aruL bAlA: She is Primordial; She removes the obstacles (of Her devotees); She created the universe just like that in a flash; She is PArvathi, and You are Her Son!

vidhuraRkum arAkkodi yAnaiyum vikatath uRvAkkiya mAdhavan: He is MAdhavan (Krishna) who created a serious wedge between Vidhuran and DuryOdhanan who held the staff of a serpent;

vijaiyaRk uyar thErp pari Urbavan marugOnE: He is also the charioteer of Arjunan, driving his large horses (in the role of PArthasArathy); You are the nephew of that Lord VishNu!

veLiyet isai sUrp porudhAdiya: The demon (SUran), who fought ferociously in the open and in all the eight directions,

kodi kaikkodu keerthi ulAviya: was ultimately conquered, and You made him (partly) into a Rooster installed on Your staff carried in Your hand and strolled about in triumph, Oh Lord!

viRalmeyth thiruvEtkaLa mEviya perumALE.: You have Your abode in ThiruvEtkaLam** where victory and truth prevail, Oh Great One!

** ThiruvEtkaLam is 2 miles east of Chidhambaram.
