Simple Translation
1817. Kaliyan, the chief of flourishing Thiruvāli,
who fights his enemies valiantly with his blood-smeared spear,
composed ten pāsurams on the faultless god
of Thiruvallavazh where many Vediyars live reciting the Vedās,
surrounded with groves swarming with lovely-winged bees.
If devotees learn and recite these pāsurams
they will become kings, ruling and enjoying this wide world.
