Long live lord's name 'namaSivAya'! Long live lord's feet!
Long live the lord's feet that do not leave my heart even for a moment!
Long live the feet of the guru (master) who enslaved me in
Long live the feet of the sweet lord who is the Agamas.
Long live the only one! Long live the many formed! Long live the lord!

Victory to the king who stilled my fleeting mind!
Victory to the anklet-worn feet of the lord wearing head ornaments who cut off my cycles of birth!
Victory to the beautiful feet of the one who is far away (unreachable)
for those who do not have bhakthi (devotion)!
Victory to the feet of the king who rejoices in the minds of those who worship with folded hands!
Victory to the feet of the king who uplifts those who worship with bowed heads!

Hail the feet of god! Hail the feet of our father!
Hail the feet of the radiant one! Hail the red (lotus like) feet of Siva, the auspicious one!
Hail the feet of the blemishless one who is established in love!
Hail the feet of the king who cuts off the ever-changing births!
Hail the feet of our lord in beautiful thirupperu ndhuRai!
Hail the mountain (called Siva) that bestows the forever-enjoyable (i.e. eternal) bliss!

Siva is fully established in my mind. Therefore, with his grace, I bow to his holy feet.
The god with an eye in the forehead came as my teacher and looked at me with his eyes of grace.
Having received his grace, I worship his beautiful feet that are beyond imagination and set out to
narrate the ancient Siva qualities (thathvas) to my heart's content, destroying my old karma in the process.

You fill the heavens, the earth, and even beyond. O the radiant one (i.e.
jyOthisvarUpi)! You are beyond thought and you are limitless. I, the
one with a past of many evil deeds, do not know how to praise you.

I have repeatedly taken countless births as various non-moving things
such as rocks, grass, small plants, tress, etc. and various moving things
such as worms, various animals, birds, snakes, humans, ghosts, gaNas,
terrible demons (rakshasas), sages, devas, etc. O lord, I am tired of all
this endless cycle.

O the truth! I have achieved liberation (mukthi) by reaching your golden
feet. O the truth, who resides in my mind as the praNavam ('Om')
helping me achieve the good state. O the one without blemish! O the
one riding on a bull! O the tall, deep, wide, tiny one who is addressed by
the vedas as the lord!

O the hot one! O the cold one! O the one without blemish - you are the
life in all! You came (as my guru) and blessed me by removing all the
falsehood, O the bright flame of true knowledge! O the lord of eternal
bliss, I have no knowledge! O the good knowledge who removes my
ignorance!

O the one who has no creation (i.e. beginning), limit (of duration of
existence), or end! You create, maintain, and destroy this entire
universe. You bestow your grace. (By your grace) You remove (my
births) and make me enter your service.

You are like the fragrance of the flower. You are far away (for those
who have no bhakthi). You are very near (to your devotees). O the
inner meaning of the vedas, you are beyond words and the mind! (This
can also be translated as "O the inner meaning of the vedas, you are the
one who remains when changes leave the mind - i.e. when the mind is
stilled in meditation it is merged in God").
O lord, you are the in the minds of the devotees giving them sweet bliss
- like the delicious mixture of fresh milk, sugar, and ghee, and cut off
their cycles of birth.

Our lord, you have five colors (i.e. the five elements - earth, water, fire,
wind, and space). You remained hidden when devas were worshipping
you.

I am hidden by the darkness of mAya (ignorance) caused by my strong
karma. I am bound tightly by the rope of good and evil. I am enveloped
on the outside by skin that covers all the filth and worms inside my
body. I am stuck in this hut of nine entrances that keeps leaking waste.
These five senses are conspiring against me. I am a dog-like lowly
person with an animal-like mind that had no deep love for you.
O the one without blemish! Yet, you came on this earth and blessed me
by revealing your holy feet. O the embodiment of all knowledge, you
showed a greater love than a mother would on this lowly person who is
inferior even to a dog!

O the flower-like (gentle) flame of blemishless light!
O the radiant one! O the sweet immortal nectar! O the one in sivalOka!
O the great one who saves me by removing the bondage of attachments!
O the great river of mercy who never leaves my heart and destroys all
my evils with loving grace!
O the forever sweet immortal nectar! O the lord of infinite greatness!
O the light who remains hidden in the minds of those who do not seek
you!
O the one who melted my heart and merged inseparably into my life!

O the one who does not have pain and pleasure! O the one who has
them!
You are the devotee of your devotees! You are everything yet you are
not those things!
O the radiant one! O the darkness! O the uncreated great one!
You are the beginning, middle, and the end of everything yet you do not
have them!
O the great one, our father, who pulled me and enslaved me as his
devotee!
You are realized by those with deep understanding of the true
knowledge! You are difficult to be seen with eyes (too large?).
You are too subtle to be researched.
You do not go anywhere, do not mix with anything else, do not come
from anywhere. (i.e. God is everywhere and in everything). You
are source of all good.
You are our protector. You are the great light difficult to see.

O the blissful flood in the river (of good path)! O father!
You are the great light. You are the subtle experience that cannot be
described in words.
In this ever-changing world, you come as various things and are finally
understood as the consciousness. You are the distilled (pure)
consciousness.
You are the spring of delicious nectar of immortality in my mind. You
are my master (i.e. I am your slave).

Our lord, I cannot bear anymore to remain in this ever-changing body.
You can get rid of the physical body, filled with the 5 devious senses, of
those devotees, who keep worshipping you by saying "O siva,
save me". You destroy all their falsehoods and they become
established in the truth. They do not come again to take on
another birth full of karma.
O lord, you dance in the middle of the night (i.e. at the end of each cycle
of creation).
O the dancer in the cidhambaram! O the one in the southern pANdya
region!

O the one who cuts off this birth of suffering! I seek refuge in you.
Saying all these, praising the one who cannot be described, I sing this
song under his holy feet.
Those who say this song understanding its full meaning will reach
sivalOka (i.e. siva's abode). There they will be praised and
worshipped by many other devotees (who are already there) and
remain at the feet of siva
