Benign and bounteous Nallur Muruga,
We accomplish ne:rththi for our survival,
During the days of despair and difficulty.
Protect us ever, since we chant Murugaa.
We continued worshiping you
With katpo:rach chatty in hands,
Pa:lkudam on heads,
Spontaneously uttering Aro:kara.
You are ever smiling.
Your name stands for beauty.
Isn’t protecting us your duty?
How many rounds we made
By pirathaddai and adiyazhippu?
But you made us wander everywhere.
We are in plight,
With all our hopes shaken
We wish our sorrows taken.
You are the kanthan extravaganza,
With saaththuppadi, golden jewel bonanza,
Majestic kopurams and manik ko:purams.
I , a layman of Skanthapuram,
Am waiting, to come to your the:r thiruvila,
Until my baby wakes up,
As she is sleeping in an e:rNai,
Made of my one and only decent vertti.
