Pallavi

 

Yen mana thamarai mel ,

Ye thaye un malar thalinai

Vaithu aruluvaye

 

Anupallavi

 

Thunbam thudaithe thooya nilayile,

Inbamana  un isaigal padave

 

Charanam

 

Than mayamakkum thava  vazhi ariyen,

Dharmamum thyagamum chirudum theriyen,

Chinmaya roopini Shiva manonmani,

Varmamillamale  vandu udava neeye.

 

English translation

 

Pallavi

 

Please keep your flower like feet,

On my mind which is like lotus.

 

Anupallavi

 

For singing sweet melodies,

Please wipe away my sorrows in my pure form.

 

Charanam

 

I do not know the route of meditation,

Which leads me to the path of salvation,

I do not know even little charity and sacrifice,

Oh Goddess with divine form ,

Oh darling of Lord Shiva,

For helping me without aversion you,

(Keep your flower like feet)
