English translation

 

Pallavi

 

I gain and again depend on Mars , whom ordinary people depend,

Who is the Mandhara tree, The Tuesday and son of earth

 

Anupallavi

 

The lord of Mesha and Vruschiga rasis which cause love,

He who is red, wears red cloths , he who is armed with trident and Shakthi,

He who does good , has a pretty neck  and two very pretty feet,

He who blesses with good things , he who rides on goat and is exalted in Makara rasi.

 

Charanam

 

He who has a smiling face and is worshipped by devas and Asuras,

He who gives land, he who gives brothers, he who has red eyes,

He who protects the oppressed, He who is worshipped in Vaitheeswaran koil,

He who is seen and blessed by Gods and Lord Subrahmanya,

He who is the friend of Sun, moon and Jupiter , He who shines with good wife,

He who sits with his hands on his knees, and who looks peculiar with his four arms.
