anupallavi
SentAmaraip padam paNindE magizhndEn SindaiyelAm niRaindAi SivanE!—nI (vandAi...)
Oh Siva (SivanE), (you came to me) and I took pleasure (magizhndEn) worshipping (paNindE) at your beautiful/red (Sen) lotus (tAmarai)-like feet (padam), even as you took over/filled (niRaindAi) every aspect (ellAm) of my thoughts (Sindai) completely.
caraNam
teriyAdavaraiyum terindE kAttiDum puram eritta aranE! annai magizh ISanE!
aRiya vaittE manam teLiya vaittE eLiyavarkkum aruLum varanE!--nI (vandAi)
Oh Siva (aranE) who burnt (eritta) the three worlds (puram), the supreme being (IsanE) in whom the divine mother (annai) delights in (magizh)! You make yourself evident/reveal yourself (terindE) and protect (kAttiDum) even those who are unable to understand/appreciate (teriyAdavaraiyum) you. Oh exemplary being (varanE)! You bless (aruLum) even poor, simple and destitute folks (eLiyavarkkum) by making them understand (aRiya vaittE), and simplifying/clarifying (teLiya) the turbulence/ignorance in their minds/hearts (manam).
