Chapter 6
Āzhvār pleads to see the Lord driven by the Lord's beauty and qualities - (பா மரு)
எம்பெருமானது குணம் அழகு முதலியவற்றில் ஆழ்வார் ஈடுபட்டு அவனைக் காணுமாறு மனம் உருகி அழைத்தல்
Āzhvār due to his inability, cries out so loud to reach Bhagavān’s ears in the hope that He would come to his rescue.
தம்முடைய ஆற்றாமை எல்லாம் வெளிப்படுத்திக்கொண்டு, ஆழ்வார், பரமபாதநாதனின் செவியில் படும்படி குரலை உயர்த்திக் கூவி அழைக்கிறார்.

- Verse 1:
Oh, Paṟpanāpā, who created the vast and varied three worlds. Oh, Lord with lotus feet that span the sprawling three worlds. Oh, Lotus-eyed, you are the unique master of this lonely soul. Oh, Lord, with lotus hands, when will I attain Your lovely feet? - Verse 2:
As the Soul, you stand for land, water, fire, air, space, and all creatures> oh, Sire. You tended the cows and held aloft Mount Govardhan to save them, oh, great pot-dancer. Alas! When will I attain Your lovely feet, adored by Nāṉmukaṉ (Brahmā) and Araṉ (Śiva)? - Verse 3:
Oh, great Dancer, you held the mountain aloft and repelled the hailstorm. Your crown adorned with tuḷaci is cool and pleasant. Oh, Internal Controller of Śiva and Brahmā! Your glory defies description. You are my beloved soul, sustaining me on Your own, yet I do not know where I will attain You. - Verse 4:
The beautiful three realms are under Your control, oh, Kōvalaṉ, wearing on your crown, Tuḷaci, cool and pleasant, shedding honey; the triple-eyed Śiva and the exalted Brahmā are at your disposal, as is Indra who wields the powerful mace. So, how can I attain You on my own? - Verse 5:
Oh, my beloved Kōvalaṉ, sweet to me like a virgin gem, how will this stubborn soul, immersed in worldly pleasures, attain You and behold Your resplendent form in SriVaikuntam, the unique and eternal land? - Verse 6:
I know not how to reach my Lord, bearing Tiru (Lakṣmī) on His chest, reclining on a serpent bed in the Milk-ocean, His body beaming blue, with His feet, navel, hands, chest, eyes, and lips glowing red like a radiant ruby. - Verse 7:
Shall I behold Him who bears on His chest Tiru, my Mother, the Internal Controller of the Spouses of Malaimakaḷ, Nāmakaḷ, and Cacī, the Redeemer of Earth? He who helped Brahmā conquer the senses, the great destroyer of the triple citadels? - Verse 8:
When will I see my Lord, who mounted the lovely bird (Garuḍa) and annihilated the Asuras who fled from Laṅkā and hid in the underworld, like the horse scared by the Dinosaur, and the fox by the lion? He slew the formidable Māli and his hordes, throwing their corpses into tall mountains of heaps. - Verse 9:
My mind, will we ever behold SriVaikuntam, who routed the formidable Asura Rāvaṇa and installed Vibhīṣaṇa, his brother, on the throne of Laṅkā? Vibhīṣaṇa then returned to Ayodhyā and ruled for thousands of years before returning to SriVaikuntam. - Verse 10:
For sure, we'll get to the hard-to-reach SriVaikuntam, thanks to the merciful Ari. He came as a Baby in Gokul, did wonders, defeated the devilish Kañcaṉ, helped the five brothers against cruel enemies, then went back to SriViakuntam, feeling there's more to do. - Verse 11:
Those well-versed in these ten songs, out of the illustrious thousand composed by Caṭakōpaṉ of Kurukūr, adoring Tirumāl wielding the fine discus, who emerged as the marvelous Man-Lion and tore open Avuṇaṉ's body, will attain SriVaikuntam, where bright damsels will adore and entertain them.
