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

oruvazhi padAdhu mAyai iruvinai vidAdhu: My mind could not go steady in one track because of delusions and the after-effects of my good and bad deeds

nALum uzhalum anurAga mOga anubOgam: which made me roam about daily, I was indulging in carnal pleasures.

udalum uyir thAnu mAy: I was thinking only about my body and my life

un uNarvil orukAl irAdha: without even acknowledging Your presence at any time!

uLamu negizh vAgumARu adiyEnuk: Please make my mind lose its rigidity and thaw to the point of melting and realising

iravu pagal pOna nyAna parama sivayOga: that the Knowledge of Supreme SivA, who surpasses day and night,

dheeramena mozhiyum: is the only source of my strength;

veesu pAsa gana kOba emapadarai mOdhu: and that the only power that can thrash the angry messengers of Yaman (Death-God) when they come to throw the rope of bondage (PAsakkayiRu) to take my life away,

mOna uraiyil upadhEsa vALai: is the silent, speechless, preaching of Yours which acts like a sword

enadhu pagai theera neeyum aruLvAyE: to destroy, both my inner and outer enemies. You must grant me that sword!

arivai oru bAgam Ana aruNagirinAthar pUjai: The worship (pUjAs) to Lord AruNagirinAthar (SivA), who has PArvathi on the left side of His body,

adaivu thavaRAdhu pENum aRivALan: is made thoroughly everyday by this wise man very religiously;

amaNar kulakAlan Agum ariya thava rAja rAjan: he is a staunch opponent of ChamaNas (anti-saivites) and is himself a great king having performed many saivite penances;

avani pugazh sOmanAthan madamEvum muruga: and he is the world-famous SOmanAthan*. You happily reside in the special shrine that was built by him, Oh MurugA!

poru sUrar sEnai muRiya: The asuras who came to fight in the battlefield were all killed;

vada mEru veezha: the Northern Mount MEru was shattered, and it collapsed;

mukara jalarAsi vEga munivOnE: and the ocean, with conch shells, was devastated when You showed Your rage!

mozhiyum adiyArgaL kOdikuRai karudhi nAlum: Even when Your devotees implore You with a million complaints,

vERu muniya aRiyAdha dhEvar perumALE.: You are never known to lose Your temper with them, Oh Great One!

* There was this great soul SOmanAthan in 14th century A.D in PuththUr who was known to be an ardent devotee of ArunAchaleswarar -SivA- of ThiruvaNNAmalai. He built a shrine for Murugan in the heart of PuththUr which is named after him, as SOmanAthanmadam. PuththUr is in AraNi Taluk of North Arcot District.
