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

padi thanil uRavu enum anaivarkaL parivodu pakkaththil pala kaththittuth thuyar koNdu pAva: All the relatives on this earth stand nearby surrounding the body, with outpouring love and shrieks of crying;

paNai mara viRaku idai azhal idai udalathu patRak kottukaL thattic chuttu alai onRi Eka: the body is then laid on huge logs of wood that are ignited amidst the background beats of the drums; after consigning the body to fire, the various relatives take a dip in the wavy water and depart for their respective homes;

kadi saman uyir thanai iru vizhi anal athu kakkac chikkena muttik katti udanRu pO mun: Yaman, the God of Death, whose mission is destruction, attacks the life subduing it with his two fiery eyes that spew flames and angrily prepares to take it away; before that event,

kathi tharu murukanum ena ninai ninaipavar kaRpil pukku aRivu okkak kaRpathu thanthidAyO: will You not grant me the wisdom to join the righteous path of Your devotees who firmly believe that Murugan alone is the one to confer salvation so that I too become more sensible and chant Your name?

vada kiri thoLai pada alai kadal suvaRida matRuth thikku enum ettuth thikkilum venRivAya: Mount Krouncha in the north was pierced and destroyed; the wavy seas dried up; victory was achieved in all the eight cardinal directions;

valiyudan ethir porum asurarkaL podipada mattiththittu uyar kokkaik kuththi malaintha veerA: the demons who confronted You and fought with vigour were shattered to pieces; and, after defeating them, You challenged the demon SUran, who took the disguise of a tall mango tree, by attacking him with Your spear, Oh Great Warrior!

adar sadai misai mathi alai jalam athu punai aththarkkup poruL kaRpiththup pukazh koNda vAzhvE: He wears on His dense and matted hair the crescent moon and wavy water of the river Gangai; He is Lord SivA, Your father; You preached to Him the meaning of the PraNava ManthrA and earned name and fame as the Father's Teacher, Oh Precious Treasure!

adi uka mudiyinum vadivudan ezhum mavunaththil patRu uRu niththac chuththarkaL thampirAnE.: Even at the end of the Yugam (aeon) their form and figure remain intact without any deterioration; they are firm believers in practicing solemn silence and are called the Eternal Dazzlers; these pure souls always worship You, Oh Great One!
