695. O my father, lord of Vithuvakkodu,
the rivers that swell, flood and flow everywhere
cannot stay where they are but must join the ocean.
I wish to join you as those rivers join the ocean.
O virtuous one who have the color of a dark shining cloud.
See, I have no way to find refuge
except to come to you for your grace.
