thiruchiRRambalam

Meaning:
The hens started shouting, so are the sparrows. The
yAz and white conches(chaN^gu) produced their sound
everywhere. We are singing the Supreme Luminance,
Supreme Grace and the great things, didn't you listen
? What a sleep it is, long live ! Open your mouth. Is
this the way of loving the One with the disc weapon in
His hand ? One who stood beyond the deluge, Him, who
shares the body with the slim lady (umA) (it could
also be interpreted as the Partner of poor), let us
sing !

(The complete thiruvempAvai and thiruppaLLiezuchchi
are available in Tamil PDF with English translation
at http://www.shaivism.org/pal.htm)

I said I gave my body - became far off from guru's teachings
I said I gave my mind - became far off from the linga
I said I gave my wealth - became far off from the devotees
There is nothing more disasterous than the disaster I got ito by saying "I did for You", kUDalasangamadEva ! - basavaNNa
