Thirumangai aazhwars pasurams on thiru pullani and Thirumaiyam-Translation

Thirumangai Aazhwar ,9 th cent AD has sung twenty verses on Thirupullani . I am referring to 2 of them .


Vodhi namang khulithu uchchi thannaal voli mamalar,

Padam nallum panivom namakke nalamathalin,

Aadhu thara yenillum tharum andrium anbarai,

Podhum mathe! Thozhudum avan mannu pullaniye.


Let us bathe and then recite the auspicious names of Vishnu,

Let us surrender every day to the luminous and majestic ,flower like feet,

Whether he grants my wishes or not ,

My love for him will never diminish ,

Let us go to Pullani and worship him.


Villal illangai malanga saram thurandhu,

Vallalan pinponna nenjam varumallavum,

yellarum yen thannai yesinalum pesidinum,

Pullaniyem peruman poi kettirundhene.


My heart has been taken by the one ,

Who destroyed Lanka with a fusillade of arrows ,

I am wandering around in Thirupullani,

Awaiting his return ,unmindful of the chafing and scoldings of my friends and elderly women ,

At the futility of my wait .


The following verse is on Thirumaiyam----


Veiruncholai villangal choozhindha,

meiya manalar,ivvvaiem ellam,

thayina nayagaravar thozhi! thamarai kangalirundhuvaru,

seiyi kundram thighazhindha thoppa seviyavaghi malarindha jotho,

Aayiram tholodu yillangu poonum acho oruvar azhaghiyavo!



Welcome friend! To Thirumaiyam that is in a hillock ,

Surrounded by bamboo groves,

Here in resides the One who has measured all worlds in one leap!

When I attempt to describe the beauty of his lotus like eyes,

As well as his bright frame as strong as the lofty mountains,

And the strength of his, one thousand shoulders,

Achcho! Words fail me, at the face of his incomparable beauty!



Note:Verses are from Peria Thirumozhi of Thirumangai Aazhwar.
