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

thoda adAthu nErAka vadivu kANa vArAthu: It cannot be touched; Its form cannot be directly seen;

suruthi kURuvArAlum ethir kURa thuRai i(l)lAthathu: even those capable of interpreting the VEdAs cannot find words to describe It;

Or Asai iRaivanAki Or Eka thuriyamAki vERu Aki aRivAki: It is our favourite God; It is the matchless Supreme substance; It is beyond the three stages, namely, wakefulness, sleep and dream; It is different from all these; and It is Pure Knowledge.

nediya kAl kaiyOdu Adum udalil mEvi: Occupying this body which moves around with long legs and arms,

nee nAnum enavu(m) nErmai nUl kURi niRai mAyam: It renders itself to interpretation as duality by texts distinguishing between "You" and "me"; this gives rise to a delusory feeling;

nikaril kAlanAr Eva mukariyAna thUthALi ninaivOdu Ekum Or neethi mozhiyAthO: upon the command of the unique God of Death (Yaman), His messengers arrive without fail clamorously (to take the life away); will You kindly explain to me this precise routine?

adal kedAtha cUr kOdi madiya vAkai vEl Evi amar sey veera: You wielded the triumphant spear on millions of mighty demons and killed them in the battle, Oh valorous One!

eerARu puya vELE: You are the great leader with twelve shoulders, Oh Lord!

azhakinOdu mAn eenum arivai kAvalA: You are the consort of VaLLi, the daughter of a beautiful deer!

vEthan ariyum vAzha vAn ALum athi rEkA: You ruled the celestial land with such eminence that BrahmA and VishNu could survive (without fear of the demon SUran)!

kadu vidA kaLA rUpa nada vinOtha thAdALar: His neck bears the mark of poison; He is the greatest dancer performing wonderful dances;

karuthidArkaL thee mULa muthal nAdum kadavuL: He is the primal God who went after the hostile Thiripuras and burnt them down;

ERu meethu ERi puthalva: and He is the Lord mounting the bull (Nandi); You are the son of that Lord SivA!

kAraNA vEtha karuNai mEruvE thEvar perumALE.: You are the Causal One; You are the substance of all the VEdAs; Your compassion is great as Mount MEru; You are the Lord of the celestials, Oh Great One!
