kadal Odamadhu ena vEgi: like a little boat being tossed about in the sea, I have passed time hovering around;

ERkum ena poruLAsai peNAsai koLA thu enath thiriyA pariyA: I hankered after gold and women thinking that such a pursuit was advisable; many people mocked at me while I was roaming about in misery;

thavam Etri iruppidamE aRiyAmalum udal pENi: not knowing where I could seek solace through penance, I carried on nurturing this body of mine,

pUttu sarappaLiyE madhanAmena: displaying pompously the diamond pendant around my neck so that others could look upon me as the God of Love (Manmathan).

Atti asaith iyalE thiri nALaiyil: In those days, when I was showing off, shaking and moving my body hither and thither,

pUththa malakguhaiyO podhi sORena kazhu kAgam pOtri namak iraiyAm enavE koLa: vultures and crows considered this body to be a potential prey as if it were a cavern full of faeces or a bundle of cooked rice.

nAtti lodukkenavE vizhu pOdhinil: On this earth, at the final hour when all my vital signs would have ebbed,

pUttu paNip padha mA mayilA aruL purivAyE: kindly bless me graciously; You are the One mounting the great peacock that has a serpent tied to its feet tightly!
