below.

yaam aam maa n^iiyaam aa maa yaazii kaamaa kaaN naagaa
kaaNa kaamaa kaaziiyaa maamaayaa n^ii maamaayaa )

We are pashus (maa); You are pashupati (aa maa); The
One Who plays yAz (string music instrument),
Desirable, Wearing attractive snake, One Who made
kaama (cupid) invisible, Lord of chiirkaazi remove
(n^ii - n^iikku) the powerful maaya (that surrounds
us), Oh the Lord Who makes the act of concealment
(thirodhAnam - one of the five deeds of God) !

Notes:
1. One of the works of sambandhar that shows his
scholarliness in thamiz.
2. Whether read from start to end or end to start the
hymn reads the same way (palindrome style - but for
the whole hymn). The whole padhikam is this way. Hence
the padhikam is called thiru mAlai maRRu.
3. Notice that all the letters used are neDil (long
vowels). Except songs eight and eleven.
