You who grants art  is a wonder, in the

World  of imagination of the poet you   are  the divinity

Thevarkal  naadidum  kuruvadiye

Paadinen  undhan  pasha vadiye-yendrum

Paalithu   arulum   sevadiye

 

I searched    for your divine feet-The  feet of Guru,

Being searched  by the   Gods of the forest

I sang   about   your matured  feet-Oh  feet,

Please look after  me always
