AakAtha neesa nanusithan vipareethan: I have a dirty mind and I indulge in forbidden acts; and I am very controversial.

AachAvi cAra vekuvitha mOka Aasareetha paravasan: Thinking only about the three desires (namely, acquisition of property, women and gold), I have committed many a lustful act without self-control.

AakAsa neerma NanalvaLi yurumARi: By the various permutations and combinations of the five elements, namely the sky, water, earth, fire and air,

mAsAna nAleN vakaithanai: I have taken birth in several bodies with thirty two types* of contaminated tenets;

neenAne nAtha aRivuLam vAyAtha pAvi: I have been a sinner incapable of realising that there is no distinction between You and me.

yivanena ninaiyAmal: Please do not shun me because of all these bad qualities in me.

mAthApi thAvi naruNala mARAma kAril: Like the steadfast loving acts of the parents for their children,

enaiyini mAnjAna pOtha maruLseya ninaivAyE: kindly love me henceforth and think about preaching to me so that I can realise the great and true knowledge.

mAchUrar mArpu thoLaipada: the chests of the huge demons were pierced;

vEthALa rAsi pasikeda: and the hunger of the devils was satiated;

aRaikURi mEkAra vAra mena athir pOr: when You called the demons, roaring like the thunder, challenging them to come to the battlefield,

yAthu thAna remapura meethERa: and sent away the YAdhus and DhanavAs** to the land of Yaman (God of Death)

vElko damarseyu miLaiyOnE: battling with Your Spear, Oh Young One!

kUsAthu vEda numizhtharu neerAdi: When the hunter (Kannappan) showered his saliva on the phallus (Siva Lingam), He bathed in it unhesitatingly;

yUnu Nenumurai kURAma neeya avanukar tharusEdang kOthAme nAmal: when partly-eaten meat was offered by him saying that it was tasty meat, He did not reject it as dirty leftover;

amuthusey vEthAka mAthi muthaltharu kO: instead, He accepted that food with relish as if it were nectar; He is the primordial Lord SivA who is above all scriptures; and You are the Leader delivered to us by Him!

lOka nAtha kuRamakaL perumALE.: You govern the entire universe! You are the consort of VaLLi, the damsel of the KuRavAs, Oh Great One!

** YAdhus are the sons of Dhithi and Dhanavas are the sons of Dhanu, all of whom were the forefathers of the demons.
