Sujataism: Poetic description of Tirumalai by Pei Aazhwar.

**Paartha kaduvan sunaineer nizharkandu perthor kaduvena porndhu ,kartah kalangkanikku kaineetu vengadame menaal vilanganikku kanrerindhan verpu. ........ 2349.

Seeing its own image in the mirror like clear waters of the springs in Tirumalai,an monkey that was plucking fruits from the branches of a nearby tree ,mistaking it for another ,stretches out its hands , begging for the fruits!

These are the pristine surroundings where in lives my Bhagwan!

**Tribal woman ,who know no other place apart from Tirumalai playfully climb on bamboo shafts with the help of their hands adorned with beautiful bangles!

These bamboos grow so tall that they reach the moon and successfully dislodge Rahu and free the moon from its eclipse!

These are the sacred hills of Tiruvengadam where in resides the leader of ever young souls--Nitya suris. ....................2353.

** Mudhinda pozhudil kuravanar yemmai padindhuzhasaal paindhinaigal vitha thadithyezhundu veyangkazhai poi vinthirakkum Vengadame melvorunaal theengkhuzhalvaai vaithan silambu. ................................................................................................................................ 2370.

The tribal men in their sunset years who are not able to hunt ,scatter seeds on the land dug up by wild boars , in their quest to taste the tender shoots of bamboo,

Plentiful crops are reaped and at the same time the uprooted bamboo trees sprout fresh shoots that reach the sky!

Such is the fertility of Tirumala where ,once upon a time Govindan played on his bamboo flute!

**The white moon on its revolution grazes the tall peaks of Tirumalai hills.

The leopards roaming in these hills mistake the dark patch in the moon to be a hare and stand transfixed and bemused ,unable to catch the hare or willing to let it go!

These are the sacred hills that are filled with the fragrance of Vengi trees ,where in resides Govindan................... 2356.
