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

nUlinai oththa marungul thErinai oththa nithampam nUpuram moyththa pathangaL ivaiyAlum: With their slender waist looking like the thread, their genital region looking like the chariot, their feet adorned with anklets,

nURu isai petRa patham koL mEruvai oththa thanangaL nUl val malarp poru thuNdam avaiyAlum: their breasts that look like the worthy Mount MEru celebrated in many texts from all directions, their face like the lotus,

sElinai oththidu kaNkaLAlum azhaiththidu(m) peNkaL thEn ithazh patRum or inpa valai mUzhkic cheelam anaiththum ozhinthu kAma vithaththil azhunthi thERu thavaththai izhanthu thirivEnO: and their eyes like the kayal fish, they solicit the men; sucking their honey-like lips, I sink into their sensuous net and fritter away the dictates of the scriptures; by indulging in erotic acts with them losing the opportunity of attaining the worthy position of penance, why am I being tossed about aimlessly?

vAla iLap piRai thumpai ARu kadukkai karanthai vAsukiyaip punai nampar tharu sEyE: He wears on His matted hair the young crescent moon, the thumbai (leucas) flower, the river Gangai, the kondRai flower (Indian Laburnum), the fresh green holy ash and the serpent VAsuki; and You are the child of that Lord SivA!

mAvaliyaic chiRai maNda Or adi otti aLanthu vALi parappi ilangai arasAnOn mEl mudi paththum arinthu thOL iru paththum arinthu veeram mikuththa mukunthan marukOnE: According to the word given by the Emperor MahAbali, He measured with His foot pushing (MahAbali) into the prison; by wielding His arrow, He severed the ten heads and twenty arms of King RAvaNan of LankA and stood valorously; and You are the nephew of that Lord VishNu!

mEvu thiruththaNi senthil neeL pazhanikkuL ukanthu vEtha vanaththil amarntha perumALE.: Having taken Your seat with relish in the most coveted places like ThiruththaNigai, ThiruchchendhUr and the great town Pazhani, You chose VEthAraNiyam* as Your abode, Oh Great One!

* VEthAraNiyam is located at a distance of 20 miles from ThiruththuRaippUNdi Railway Junction.
