Meaning: {Courtesy: R Shankar, Rasikas.org}
P: My Lord (“arasE”), murugA (“murugayyA”) you (“nI”) have to shower (“seyya vENDum”) your grace (“aruL”) (“on me”)!
A: Please appear/come (“vandu”) like (“ena”) the sun (“sUriyan”) of knowledge (“jnAna”) (“and bless me, Oh murugA”) with a (“Or”) word (“sol”) [1] that will dispel (“aravE”) the deep darkness (“valliruL”) of illusion (“mAya”) intoxicating (“mayakkiDum”) and entangling (“uravE”) me in a web of desire (“maruL”).
C: This body (“kAyam”) is not (“ilayE”) eternal (“nilaiya”), so what is this (“enna”) illusion (“mAyam”) that makes us believe (“eNNuvadu”) that it (“idanai”) is permanent (“nilaiyenRu”)? Oh one who is dear (“priya”) to the fan (“rasika”), the loving (“nEsa”) servant (“dAsa”), of the poet (“kavi”) kunjara (“bhArati”) [2], (“you have to bless me, Oh murugA”), so that I (“nAn”) can achieve excellence (“uyya”) in life by accepting/thinking of you alone (“unnaiyE”) as the eternal one (“nilaiyenRu”)!
