English translation

Pallavi

The form of Muruga is pleasing to the mind,

And his divine name is one that  removes illusion.

Anupallavi

The Vel in hand is the one that  protects us daily,

And his shining Vel   removes  all Karma

Charanam

All our thoughts   would bear   fruit,

The  worship that  we do  would yield result,

All  the sorrows that  we suffer in this earth would go away,

And  unchanging happiness   will accumulate  in our mind.
