and earth dame and nappinnai blending in you
gods and asuras everywhere worship you
and seek refuge in you but never fanthom you
without ever learning the vedic texts
we have cut attachments and destroyed the four woes
by simply serving the radiant discus lord
who is our fortress of strength
alas nobody comes here bearing the conch and discus
nobody comes following him with his dagger and bow
i look out for him everyday on this earth
to serve and worship him but see him not alas
O lord who swallowed the earth as a morsel
and slept as a child floating on a fig leaf
alas time stretches like a dark age
and i drown in the desire to see your frame.
o lord lying still in beautiful kolur and pulingudi
what makes you sleep so soundly
are you weary from the battles of lanka
or from walking over the earth and sky
being the lord of gods he receives their homage
he wields a beautiful conch and discus look
he destroys the pall of existence
he will come and light my heart with his gem hue
the lords resides in paricaram with Lakshmi on his chest
pilgrims come and go but alas none to say to him
a devotee waits there longing for a chance
to go out with you bearing your conch and discus
Lord of discus who strode the seven mountains
the seven oceans and the seven worlds in one step
o when will you consider and grant me
the joy of serving your lotus feet
my love overflowing i call out
o first lord time my gem hued master
who is mal brahma and siva
who can comprehend his glory
the clear sighted muni can only see the shore
the great eternal celestial only stand and worship
how can we ever fully praise the lord
who churned the deep oceans pray tell
this decad of the beautiful thousand songs
by tall mansioned kurugur city's satakopan
addressing the lord who destroys birth
will secure freedom from rebirth.
