Verse 71
Tamil Lyrics
திங்களு மாசுண முன்புனை வார்செல்வ னென்னையிரு
திங்களு மாசுண மாக்கும் பதாம்புயந் செந்திலன்னாள்
திங்களு மாசுண மன்போல் விழியுஞ் செழுங்கரும்புந்
திங்களு மாசுண நன்றான மாற்றமுந் தீட்டினன்றே.
English Meaning
Muruka, you are the beloved son of God Sivan who wears the crescent moon and snake on his crown. Your lotus-like holy feet are capable of burning to ashes the effects of one's past deeds. The miseries of living inside the womb of a mother for ten long months as well as the sufferings of living in this world may thus be eliminated.
This poor girl has a face as bright as that of Murukan, the chief of the city of Tiruchendur. She has eyes that are as sharp as those of God Yama whose job is to scrutinize the sins of people without bias and pass appropriate judgment. She has shoulders as strong as sugar cane and words as intoxicating as toddy. If you could rewrite these features making them less attractive, it would prevent men from committing various sins.
(Please change her features to be less attractive so that she won't be held responsible for the sins that men commit)
Verse 72
Tamil Lyrics
தீட்டப் படாவி யுன்னாலென் சென்னி கறைபிறப்பில்
தீட்டப் படாவ யவரல்லன் யான்மறுப்புத்
தீட்டப் படாவ முகுகா சலஞ்சிறை விட்டவன்றாள்
தீட்டப் படாவ வனையே நினைவின் நிசாமுகனே.
English Meaning
Oh Piraman, listen to me carefully. From now on, you won't be writing the dates of birth or death for me just as you do for any other mortal who is born after spending time inside the cramped womb bathed in various body fluids of the mother. I will tell you why. Murukan's heroic efforts were solely responsible for the release from the prison of Indiran, the rider of the white elephant, Iravatham. This elephant has four tusks and beautifully engraved designs on the sharp gold shield on its forehead. When God Kanthan is there to protect me, I don't think you or your associates have a chance to approach me. That means you can't write my birth details again.
Verse 73
Tamil Lyrics
திசாமுக வேதனை யன்பாற் கரன்றிங் கடங்கவ
திசாமுக வேதனை யீழிலு மீரிலர் சீறுமம்போ
திசாமுக வேதனை வெண்கண்ட வேலன் நினைப்புனத்தந்
திசாமுக வேதனை நண்ணுதங் காரவை சேர்பவரே.
English Meaning
Devotees go to Pazhamuthir Solai Mountain, where one can find little millet fields, herds of elephants, clusters of bamboo trees and low hanging clouds, and meditate on Velayudhan, who resides peacefully. The terrible Suran and his clan were hiding in the sea and advancing ferociously making loud noise. They caused untold miseries to the celestial residents. Velayudhan was the hero who bravely encountered the advancing Suran and his relatives and destroyed them much to the relief of the celestial residents.
On the fateful day when the entire universe is destined to be destroyed, the devotees who had been meditating on Velayudhan in Pazhamuthir Solai Mountain, will continue to remain unaffected though everything else including Piraman with his four faces, Tirumal, Piraman's father, the sun and the moon disappear at the end of the eon.
Verse 74
Tamil Lyrics
சேரப் பொருப்பட வித்தே நிறைவன் நிறைசிறையைச்
சேரப் பொருப்பட வல்லவன் சூரரை சிகரியுடன்
சேரப் பொருப்பட வென்றண்ட ரேத்திய சேவகன்வான்
சேரப் பொருப்பட வேணியிற் சேர்த்தவன் செய்தவமே.
English Meaning
Muruka, you are the husband of the pleasant Valli who lives in the forest of Valli hills. These areas were part of Kolli Mountains and Velli Mountains and belonged to the Chera Kingdom. You are the bold hero who caused the waves of the salty ocean dashing on the shores to go dry using your powerful spear. You are the general who fought with the terrible Suran and destroyed him along with the Kravunja Mountain. The celestial residents hailed you for your act of bravery and worshiped you for saving their lives. God Sivan wearing the river, Akasha Ganges, on his crown should have done a lot of penance for begetting a son like you.
(We hail you, our God.)
Verse 75
Tamil Lyrics
செய்யவத் தாலஞ்சு சீரெழுத் தோதிலத் தீதலருஞ்
செய்யவத் தாலஞ்சு கம்பொஞ் சேயுரைக் கேற்றுருப்போய்ச்
செய்யவத் தாலஞ்சு வைக்கனி யீன்றதெ நோம்விணையே
செய்யவத் தாலஞ்சு கின்றன மும்மலச் செம்மல்கொண்டே.
English Meaning
Oh mind, we never do any act of penance (to improve ourselves) nor do we chant the sacred letter (Ohm) representing the Primal Being. Also we do not hail the greatness of Tevaram that was composed by the child philosopher, Tirugnana Sampanthar, so that bad things are destroyed and good things flourish. Thanks to the miracle performed by the child saint, Sambanthar, the male palmyrah trees were converted to female trees that yielded sweet palm fruits. We did not even appreciate these miracles performed by Gnana Sampanthar, who is considered to be the reappearance of Murukan. We are preoccupied with our daily routine activities and live in eternal fear without realizing the absolute truth is covered by the veil of the triads, viz. arrogance, action and illusion.
Verse 76
Tamil Lyrics
செம்மலை வண்டு கடரங்க மாவென்ற திண்படைவேற்
செம்மலை வண்டு வசவார ணத்தனைச் செப்பவுன்னிச்
செம்மலை வண்டு தவந்தமிழ்ப் பாணென் டிங்கையில்வாய்
செம்மலை வண்டு விருப்புறு மோவது தேர்ந்துரையே.
English Meaning
God Muruka, you possess the very powerful spear with which you destroyed the Kravunja Mountain and the illusive Suran who was hiding in the guise of a mango tree in the ocean, abundant in several species of conches. You are hailed as God Kumaran who carries the victorious flag with the cock inscribed on it.
Oh bard, you are highly proficient in Thamizh music and you enjoy composing flawless poetry. Ask yourself whether the bees, if they ever had a chance, would prefer to suck honey from old flowers or from newly blossomed flowers. Similarly with your tremendous poetic ability you should sing in praise of God Kanthan in chaste Thamizh rather than singing the praise of a philanthropist or a king.
Verse 77
Tamil Lyrics
தேரை விடப்பணி யேறெறி முப்புரஞ் செற்றபிரான்
தேரை விடப்பணி சூரரி யேங்க தெரிவையர்பால்
தேரை விடப்பணி வாய்ப்படு மாறு செறிந்தலைகைத்
தேரை விடப்பணித் தென்றோடி யென்றுந் திரிபவரே.
English Meaning
God Muruka, you taught the principles of the Pranava Manthiram to your father, God Sivan, who broke the axis of the chariot constructed by the celestial residents and chose to ride the bull to destroy the three wicked flying cities. You are the brave Kumaran who destroyed the terrible Suran for his unpardonable atrocities.
Oh men, like a toad inside the mouth of a poisonous snake you have, in your confused state of mind, mistaken the mirage to be real sweet water in the stream close by. You are trapped in the net of lust for the prostitutes and are suffering. Won't it be wise to change your mind and sing in praise of some of the great accomplishments of God Murukan?
Verse 78
Tamil Lyrics
திரிபுரத் தப்புப் புவிதரத் தோன்றி சிலைபிடிப்பத்
திரிபுரத் தப்புத் தலைப்பட நாண்டொடுஞ் சேவகன்கோத்
திரிபுரத் தப்புத் திரமான் மருக திருக்கையம்போ
திரிபுரத் தப்புத் துறையா யுதவெனச் செப்புநெஞ்சே.
English Meaning
Muruka, you are the son of God Sivan who has carried out several miracles. On the Puram day (eleventh asterism), the universal Goddess, Parvathi, created the world. God Sivan asked Parvathi to hold the Meru Mountain with her left hand as the bow, and using the snake, Vasuki, as the string, shot the arrow of Tirumal that destroyed the three magic cities in the sky. You reside peacefully as the chief of Tiruchengodu Mountain. You are the son-in-law of Tirumal. You destroyed the unfriendly asuras who were hiding in the sea where large numbers of the Tirukkai species of fish live. Mind, why can't you sing these and other great achievements of Kanthan, the God carrying the powerful spear? You will be able to spend your days peacefully.
Verse 79
Tamil Lyrics
செப்ப ரமுதலை மன்னோ திகங் குரும்பைமுலை
செப்ப ரமுதலை கண்கா னகைமுரந் தீருகண்
செப்ப ரமுதலை வாவியிற் சென்ற பிரான்மருகன்
செப்ப ரமுதலை வேர்களை வான்வரைச் சீருனுகே.
English Meaning
Muruka, you are the son-in-law of Tirumal, who once came fast to save the elephant in the pond from the clutches of the big red crocodile that had four eyes. You are capable of destroying the births of devotees who sing in praise of your greatness. This girl who lives on the slopes of Valli Hills where you reside is so beautiful that her sweet words are as insatiable as nectar; her lovely tresses are permanently black like the dark clouds; her breasts are cup-like cones and are as pointed as the young fruit of the coconut; her eyes are as broad as the wide sea studded with pearls; her teeth are strong and shiny resembling the bottom portion of the peacock feather.
(Please be kind to her and give her your flowers)
Verse 80
Tamil Lyrics
சீராம ராம சிவசங் ராநுங் திருமுடிக்குச்
சீராம ராம துகரத் துழையென்பர் தெண்டிரமேற்
சீராம ராம நிறந்திறக் கத்தொட்ட சேய்கழற்குச்
சீராம ராம நிமையோர் மகுடச் சிகாவிம்பமே.
English Meaning
God Sivasankara, the things that add beauty to your head are the river Ganges and the snakes you wear on your crown. God Tirumal, the things that add to your handsomeness are the garlands of sacred basil leaves. God Muruka, your spear has pierced through the armour of the terrible Suran who was hiding as a mango tree in the sea full of waves. The things that enhance the beauty of your holy red feet are the crowns of the celestial residents who prostrate before your feet with respect.
