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

kuvaLai poruthu iru kuzhaiyai mudukiya: They fight with lily claiming that they are more beautiful; they reach up to, and chase, the ear-studs;

kOla vEl vizhi madavAr tham: they are the pretty, spear-like, and sharp eyes of the whores;

kodiya mrukamatha puLaka thana kiri kUdi nAdoRu(m) mayal Aki: hugging everyday their evil, mountain-like and stimulating bosom, splashed with musk,

thuvaLa urukiya sarasa vitham athu sOra vArithi alaiyUdE: growing weaker due to many caressing acts and being swayed by waves in the sea of passion,

suzhalum enathu uyir mavuna parama sukam makA uthathi padiyAthO: my life has been tossed about; will it ever drown in the great ocean of Eternal Bliss in a state of tranquility?

kavaLa kara thala karada vikada kapOla pUthara mukamAna: He has an elephant's face along with a trunk that feeds a mouthful; He has a face with a stain of saliva oozing when He is enraged;

kadavuL gaNapathi piRaku varum oru kAraNA kathir vadivElA: He is Lord GaNapathi; and You are His younger brother; You are the unique Causal and Primordial One, Oh Lord with the bright spear!

pavaLa marakatha kanaka vayira kapAda kOpura ari thErin pariyum idaRiya purisai thazhuviya pAkai mEviya perumALE.: The doors and towers of this town are multi-coloured; red like coral, green like emerald, yellow like gold and white like diamond; the fortress walls around this place PAgai* are so tall that the horses driven by the sun trip up on them; and You have Your abode here, Oh Great One!

* PAgai is now known as PAgasAlai, a coastal town near MayilAduthuRai - MAyUram.
