Seetha kallabha chenthamaraippum,


Paatha chilambhu pala isai paada,

Pon araijnanum, poonthugil aadaiyum,

Vanna marungil valarindu azhakerippa,

Pezhai vayirum, perum paara kodum,

Vezha mukhamum, vilangu chindooramum,

Anju karamum , angusa paasamum,

Nenjir kudi konda neela meniyum,

Naandra vaayum, naaliru puyamum,

Moondru kannum, mummatha chuvadum,

Irandu cheviyum, ilangu Pon mudiyum,

Thiranda muppiri nool thigazh Oli maarbum,

Chor padam kadantha thuriya mey jnanam,

Arpudham nindra karpaga kallire



While the anklets on the cool sandal anointed feet

Which has the color of the red hibiscus flower,

Sings various songs, while the golden waist belt,

And his clothes as soft as flower,

Shine in pretty and beautiful colors of the rainbow,

While his box like paunch, weighty tusks

Elephant like face, the saffron dot applied on it,

Five hands and the goad and rope that he has,

His blue body which attracted our mind,

Hanging mouth, his four sets of shoulders,

His three eyes, three trails of his feet’s,

His two ears, his shining golden hair,

His glowing broad chest wearing the holy thread,

His divine knowledge of Thuriya, his mastery over words,

Stood in awe at the wish giving elephant.

OH god who rides on an elephant and eats three fruits,

You come in the shape of my mother,

Cut off the trance like feeling of this illusory birth,

Make clear to my mind the meaning of the

Five lettered Namasivaya, enter then in to my mind,

Step in to this world in the form of a teacher in this world of ours,

And tell me with happiness that this is its real meaning

In the joints of the well ripened sugar cane like body,

After clarifying the role of Vedas and sacred ash.

After pointing out the principle of five letters “Namashivaya”,

After showing me the state of my mind,

After giving me the philosophic state and after ruling me,

My wise Vinayaka ruled me and I seek refuge in his feet.
