Simple Translation
1569. He, the Lord of Naraiyur, adorned with emeralds on his ears,
makes me think of him
like a calf that thinks of his mother,
and he thinks of me and gives his grace to me. .
He, the lion of the gods in the sky
and a cowherd in Thirukkovalur surrounded with walls,
swallowed the world and spat it out.
I will not praise anyone except my dear god, my friend.
