Innam pathiyirukku parayaa, neeyum poy paar yendrutharam tharum theerum

 

English translation

 

Pallavi

There is a medicine to cure madness,

Called the divine joy within

 

Anupallavi

Even if  this slave takes other medicines,

They do not  come , do not come , Oh Lord

 

Charanam

This was searched found out and cultivated by after great effort by the snake and the tiger,

And this has been seen and enjoyed by Lord Vishnu who measured the world as well as Brahma,

And a great lady called Parvathi  has once eaten half of it,

And Oh debased one there is half more left,

Please Lord Give me salvation and give it to me.
