1242. Our god who took the form of a dwarf-like thief,
went to the sacrifice of Mahābali,
took three feet of land as a boon from the king
and measured all the earth and the ocean rolling with waves
as all the people of the world saw him and rejoiced
stays in Arimeyavinnagaram in Nāngur
surrounded with flourishing groves,
where the sound of the drums that reaches the sky,
the humming of swarming bees,
the chanting of the divine Vedās,
the tinkling of the anklets of beautiful women
and the roaring of the rolling waves of the ocean spread everywhere.
O heart, let us go and worship him in that temple.
