1344. Our god took the form of a dwarf,
went to the sacrifice of the Asuran king Mahabali
who thought he could do anything he wanted,
asked for three feet of land, grew tall in all directions
and measured the earth and the sky.
He stays in the temple in Thiruvelliyangudi
where cuckoo birds living in beautiful alli groves
call to the god Velliyār, exclaiming, “Hari, Hari!”
and he hurries to them and gives them his grace.
