uNba udalE sumandhu idhu: will ultimately prey on this body that I am carrying.

Elva dhendru madhamE mozhindhu madha umbal pOlE: Thinking that this body suits me well, I keep saying arrogant words and move about like a wild elephant.

Edhu mendranida kOlenum parivu mEvi nambi: Believing that everything is under my firm control, I live merrily in the hope that this life would last for ever.

idhu pOdhu menga silar: A few people wonder if I am content with this luxurious life.

seetha thongal azhagA aNindhu maNam veesa: Wearing cool and fragrant garlands elegantly,

mangaiyargaL Ada: with girls dancing around me,

veNkavari seeRa kombu kuzhalUdha: while large white fans (chAmaram) drive a current of cool air and trumpets and flutes blow nearby,

thaNdigaiyil anthamAga sEr ganam periya vAzhvu koNdu uzhalum: I imagine myself seated smartly in a palanquin; hankering after that great luxurious life, I roam around.

Asai vendhida vunAsai minji siva sEvai kaNdu: That desire must be burnt. Instead, love towards You must intensify, and I must have Your blissful vision!

unadhu pAdha thoNdan ena anbuthArAy: Please bestow me with Your love so that I am known as the servant of Your hallowed feet!

sUdhi rundhavidar mEyi ruNdagiri: The dark mount Krouncha, with its peaks and valleys notorious for several plotting schemes, and

sUrar vendhu podiyAgi mangivizha: the demons were all destroyed, being crushed to their death;

sUriyan puravi thEr nadandhu nadu panginOda: the Sun's chariot, fastened with horses, drove along its orbit in the mid-sky (unlike during the rule of SUran)*;

jOthi andha biramA purandharanum: the bright Lord BrahmA, IndrA,

Adhi antha mudhal dhEvarun thozhudhu sUzha: and all the celestials from the first DEvA to the last encircled in worship;

mandril nata mAdum endhai mudhal anbukUra: our Father, the Primordial Lord SivA, who dances in the golden stage, stood there delighted with love;

vAdhu koNdavuNar mALa: and the hostile demons who came to the war died;

senkai ayilEvi: when You wielded the Spear from Your reddish hand!

aNdarkudi ERa: The celestials were all able to go back to their land;

vinjaiyargaL mAdhar chinthai kaLi kUra: and the women folk of the VidhyAdharAs (the teaching faculty of the Celestials) were all rejoicing when

nindru natanang koLvOnE: You stood at the battlefield and danced!

vAsa kumba thana mAnai vandhu: You approached VaLLi, the deer-like damsel with fragrant pot-like bosoms, and

thinai kAval koNda murugA: took over from her the duty of guarding the millet field, Oh Muruga!

eNum periya vAli koNda puramE amarndhu vaLar thambirAnE.: You are seated auspiciously in VAlikoNdapuram**, which is considered to be a great place, Oh Great One!

* During SUran's rule, the Sun was never allowed to orbit along the mid-sky.
It was only after SUran's demise that the Sun was able to resume its normal orbit - Kandha PurANam.

** VAlikoNdapuram is about 40 miles north of Tiruchi, near PerambalUr.
