Pallavi

Kanden , kali theernthen,

Karunai kadale naan

 

Anupallavi

Nindren sannidhi arugil,

Nirmala amrutham unden,

Vendren pori pulangalai,

Vinnavar pothum piranai kanden

 

Charanam

Anadhi karpithamagiya mayaigal  yavayum vendren,

Adhi aanandam konden , aanava malam vinden,

Manadhigalukku yettamal  magimai porundhiya  thillayil,

Mayan Gopala Krishnan  thozhum mahadevan thirumeniyai kanden

 

English translation

 

Pallavi

I saw him and put an end to all sufferings,

Oh ocean of mercy

 

Anupallavi

I stood near your sanctum,

I ate  the very pure nectar ,

I won control over my organs and wishes,

And I saw the God who is praised by the devas.

 

Charanam

I won over all the illusions which were  made in primeval times,

I became extremely happy , I broke the dirty thing called ego,

And I saw in Chidambaram  that God who was praised by Bala Krishna,

 Who has  the great fame  of being not reachable by the mind.
