thiruchiRRambalam

Meaning:
The One with chaste water(river), whom we chant and
dance in order to get rid of the roaring suffering of
birth. The Fire Dancer at the tiny hall of nice
thillai. Protecting, creating and removing this sky,
world and all of us as a play, speaking the (sacred)
words, the bangles tingling, the ornating snakes
hissing, the bees buzzing on the decorated plait (He
dances). Striking the (water in the) floral pond,
praising the Golden Foot of the Lord, take bath in
this nice water.

(The complete thiruvempAvai and thiruppaLLiezuchchi
are available in Tamil PDF with English translation

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
