Namasivaya vaazka Let us praise the feet of the lord! Let us praise the feet of the lord who does not leave my heart even for the wink of an eye. Let us praise the feet of the great jewel-like god, the king of Thirukokazhi. Let us praise the god who is near us and is the Vedas. He is one and many—let us worship his feet. Let us praise the feet of the lord, the destroyer of our desires. Let us praise the ornamented feet of Pinnagam that remove our future births. Let us praise the beautiful feet of the lord that cannot be reached by any who are not his devotees. If devotees worship him folding their hands, he stays happily in their hearts. Let us praise his ornamented feet. If his devotees bend their heads and worship him he makes them famous—let us praise his feet.

The three-eyed lord came to me and showed his compassion and I worshiped his matchless ornamented feet. He is the sky, the earth, the bright light that spreads everywhere and he has no limits. I have done bad karma. I do not know how to praise him. I was born as a blade of grass, a bhutam, a worm, a tree, many animals, a bird, a snake, a stone, a human, a demon one of the ganas, a strong Asura, a sage, a god and all creatures that act or do not act.

I was born as all things on this earth and I am tired. O lord, I found your golden feet and reached moksha. You stay in my mind as Om and protect me. O lord, you are the truth, the faultless one, the rider on a bull, and you are deep and wide yet small like an atom. The Vedas praise you saying, You are our master!” O faultless lord, you are heat and cold, the true wisdom that removes all the false deeds of your devotees, a shining bright light and excellent knowledge that give us grace. O lord, you are my joy! I am not wise, and you are the good knowledge that removes my ignorance.

You have no beginning or end and you cannot be measured. You create the whole world, protect and destroy it, you give your grace to the world, take creatures of the world to your world and make them worship you. You stay far and near and you are the fragrance in all things. You are the lord of the Vedas, filled with knowledge. You stay in the hearts of your dear devotees like honey mixed with fresh milk, sugar and ghee. O great lord, remove the future births of your devotees. O lord with five colors, you hid when the gods in the sky searched for you. You gave me a body to me that is a hut filled with dirt and that has done bad and good karma. Its inside is bound by virtue and sin and its outside is covered with skin. The five senses do wicked things and my body wants to do everything that my senses want it to do. O faultless one, my heart melts with love for you. Even though I am like an animal my heart melts with love for you, and have not done any good. You came to this earth, showed me your ornamented body and gave me your grace to me who am lower than a dog.

Though you have no happiness or sorrow, you can be happy or sorrowful.

O lord, virtuous one, you are not born on the earth and you do not leave it. O lord, light that no one can see, you are our protector and take care of us. You are the joyful flood of a river, O lord, you are light that will never diminish, and the deep feeling in our hearts.
