ima kiri maththil puyanga vem paNi kayiRu athu sutRith: Placing the HimAlayan mountain (MantharA) as the churning rod and tying around it the fierce serpent VAsuki as the rope,

tharanga(m) oL kadal imaiyavar patRik kadaintha anRu ezhu nanju pOlE: the celestials churned the bright and wavy milky ocean; on that day, the terrible poison AlakAlam (which may be compared to their eyes) emerged;

iru kuzhai thaththip puraNdu vanthu oru kumizhaiyum etRi: those eyes roam around and collide with the studs on both their ears and attack the nose that looks like a blossoming flower;

karumpu enum silai rathi pathi vetRic charangaL anjaiyum vinji needu: they surpass the speed and action of the five triumphant and flowery arrows shot by Manmathan (God of Love), the consort of Rathi, who holds in his arm the bow of sugarcane;

samaram mikuththup parantha sem kayal vizhiyinil: on such wide and combative reddish eyes, looking like kayal fish,

meththath thathumpi vinjiya thamaniya(m) veRpukku isaintha vampu aNi kongai meethE: and on their enlarged bosom, looking like golden mount, with a fitting tight blouse,

thani manam vaiththuth thaLarnthu vaNdu amar kuzhaliyar poykkuL kalangal inRiye: I do not wish to set my lonely heart and get depressed; nor do I wish to be agitated by the false love of those whores with beautiful hair which the beetles swarm around;

satha thaLam vaiththuc chivantha nin kazhal thanthidAyO: for that, will You not kindly grant me Your reddish and hallowed feet so that I could worship them by offering lotus with a hundred petals?

amarar thuthikkap purantharan thozha ezhupathu varkkak kurangu koNdu: As the celestials praised and IndrA worshipped, He commanded the army of monkeys of seventy species;

eRi alaiyai adaiththuk kadanthu senRu ethir munthu pOril: He built a bridge across the wavy sea, crossed over into LankA and in the war that confronted Him,

asurar muthal kotRavan perum thiRal irupathu kotRap puyangaL sinthida: He knocked down the twenty mighty shoulders of RAvaNan, the king of the demons,

azhakiya koththuc chirangaL onpathum onRu(m) mALak kamala malarkkaic charam thuranthavar marumaka: and severed the neat bunch of his ten heads by wielding arrows from His lotus hand; You are the nephew of that RAmA!

mattu ukka konRai am thodai kaRai aRa oppatRa thumpai ampuli kangai cUdum: He wears on His matted hair the kondRai (Indian laburnum) garland with oozing honey, unblemished and matchless garland of thumbai (leucas), the crescent moon and River Gangai;

kadavuLar pakkaththu aNangu thantharuL kumara: He is Lord SivA on whose left side DEvi PArvathi is concorporate; You are the son delivered by Her!

kuRath thaththaip pin thirinthu avaL kadina thanaththil kalanthu ilangiya thambirAnE.: You roamed about in pursuit of VaLLi, the beautiful parrot-like damsel of the KuRavAs, and embraced her robust bosom, Oh Great One!
