Simple Translation
171. "Hey crow, let not people who see Him, make fun of His uncombed hair. Come, O crow, help me comb His dark cloud-colored hair that swarms with bees. "So says Yashodā to the crow. Pattan, the chief of Villiputhur surrounded by walls that touch the sky, composed these pāsurams that describe how the cowherdess Yashodā called the crow. Those who celebrate and sing these pāsurams, will not have any bad karmā.
