1577. Kaliyan, a poet and chief of Thirumangai of Thiruvāli surrounded with groves
blooming with flourishing flowers that swarm with bees,
put his head on the divine flower-like feet of Nambi and worshiped him.
He danced and composed ten Tamil pāsurams
for the devotees of the lord of Naraiyur.
O devotees, sing these ten songs
and the results of your karmā will go away.
