Oh God of gods , Oh Sada Shiva,
Who has sun, moon and fire as eyes.

You were searched by Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu,
And you who is ornament is good meditation,
Chose to be with Goddess Parvathi.

Oh God, you keep crescent on your head,
Your neck is blue, You shine like thousand suns,
And oh friend of the oppressed give me devotion to your feet,
Oh God with a ever smiling face , give this devotion to Thyagaraja.
