Simple Translation
1933. Her mother says,
“You, the ocean-colored lord of Thirumālai,
danced the kuthu dance in the middle of the village,
you subdued the seven bulls to marry Nappinnai,
and you protected the terrified cowherds and the cows
from the storm with Govardhanā mountain.
When you made my daughter’s bangles grow loose and fall,
you did it as if you were taking honey from the murungai tree
that is in the front of your temple.
Is this because you have so much strength from your heroic deeds?”
