Pallavi

Oh Guha  who was born out of Sarvana pond ,

Oh six faced god, Oh God who is merciful,

Oh Muruga  please  shower  your grace on this poor man,

Who day and night  sings  your lotus like feet,

Saying “I surrender”,  “ I surrender

Charanam

Do not have  desire to see this slave by  your twelve eyes   and show mercy,

If you do not be merciful  and shower your grace, To whom shall I  request,

You are  my mother and father,  I believed   that you are   everything in my life,

Oh Lord of all worlds , Oh consort of Vallai   and Devasena , Oh Lord who rides  on the peacock, Oh Muruga.
