The ornaments of Lord Murukan's spear are Suran, sea and Meru Mountain (who were all severely dealt with by the spear).
Verse 63

pāthith thiruvurup pachen ravarkkuththan pāvanaiyaip
pōthiththha nāthanaip pōr vëlanaichenru pōtrriyuyyas
sōthiththha meyyanpu poyyō aluthu tholuthurugis
sāthithaftha puththhivan thengë yenak kingngan santhiththhathë.
English Meaning
Oh Muruka, the great warrior carrying the spear! Though your father is highly acclaimed for having your mother, the green colored Uma Devi as part of his own body, You did not hesitate to assume the role of a regular teacher and, considering Lord Sivan as a regular student, taught him the fundamentals of the Pranava Manthiram. Similarly you came down to my level and guided me to worship you whole-heartedly. I don't even know whether all the rituals I had been doing such as prostrating before you, pining and crying for your grace were genuine or false acts. I can only guess that I got that kind of good sense either by your grace or it might be the result of any good deed I may have done in my past life.
Verse 64

pattik katāvil varumantha kāvunaip pārariya
vettip purangan talāthuvitën veyya sūranaip pōy
muttip poruthasev vërporu māl thiru munpuninrën
kattip purappata thāsaththhi vëlenran kaiyathuvë.
English Meaning
You Yama! I know you have come here riding on your buffalo bull to take me away. Remember I am standing in the holy presence of the red colored Lord Murukan who stood up against the terrible Suran, attacked him with his spear and killed him. (He will protect me). Besides I have in my own hands the all-powerful sword of knowledge. Therefore you better pack up all your weapons and leave immediately. Otherwise I will cut you up into pieces before the whole world and force you to retreat.
Verse 65

vettung katāmisaith thōnrum vengūtrran vitung kayitrrār
kattum poluthu vituvikka vëndum karāsalangal
ettung kulakiri yettum vit tōta vet tāthaveli
mattum puthaiya virikkung kalāpa mayūraththhanë.
English Meaning
Oh Muruka, the rider of the peacock with multicolored feathers! Your peacock spreads its feathers forcibly so far and wide that all the eight mountains (protecting the world) and the eight mountains (belonging to the Suran clan) run out place and hide in the outer space. When the terrible Yama appears before me on his charging buffalo bull and ties me up with his rope of bondage, please come on your peacock and rescue me.

Verse 66
Transliteration
neerkkumilakku nikarenpar yākkainillāthu selvam
pārkku mitath thantha min pōlumenpar pasiththhuvanthë
ërku mavarkkita venninenge kënu melunthiruppār
vërkumarar kanpilāthavar njāna mikavunanre.
English Meaning
"The body is impermanent and resembles the bubbles on water. Even wealth is like the lightning that appears and disappears in a moment." We do find many people make such statements to make them look good in the eyes of others. When some hungry person asks for food to eat they immediately get up and leave as if they have some other appointment elsewhere. The wisdom of such people who probably do not adhere to the teachings of Vel Kumaran is very strange indeed!
Verse 67
Transliteration
peruthar kariya piraviyaip petrrunin sitrratiyaik
kurikip paninthu perakkar rilën matha kumpakampath
tharukat sirukat sangrāma sayila sarasavalli
rukath thaluvung katakā salapan nirupuyanë.
English Meaning
Oh, Muruka, Your twelve hands are adorned with bracelets! You tightly embrace the sweet tempered, willowy Deva Senai who was reared by the ferocious mountain-like, elephant (Iravatham) tied to a pole but is ready to go to war momentarily. This animal possesses a small pair of eyes and a big forehead from which frenzy fluid oozes. It is unfortunate that though I am blessed with this rare human body and intelligence, I never learnt to bow down before you and worship your holy feet nor strived hard to reach the permanent abode of happiness. (It is a shame that I have wasted this precious life doing useless activities)
