pAttu? When I am not even interested in singing the praise of the devatas, who
do have power and knowledge what to say about the lowly
humans? (nA koNdu mAnidam pAdEn) ?sA
jihvA yA harim stitowthi?-vishnu dharmam [That which praises the lord is called
as the tongue] Using this tongue I
will never sing about these lowly human beings. Then who will you sing
about? I will sing the praise of
that divine lord, praised even by the so called rudra who you consider to be
supreme. (teekoNda sensadaiyOn) one who has a hair that is fire-coloured or
otherwise as per poigaiazhvar?s words, ?anarkku angkaiyERRAn? one who has fire
in his hands and with reddish hair. (seNdru endrum) himself goes daily; (pookoNdu vallavAru endrum Eththa) along with flowers and does pooja
daily with his fullest capacity (along with maximum concentration of mind and
body) (endrum nalamAga eththa)
praising the divinity of the lord at all
times; (vallavAru Eththa) though praising the divine lord can never be completed
each one does, to his fullest capacity; ?yAnum Eththi Ezhulagum muRRumEththi pinnaiyum thAnumEththilum thannai
EththavEththa engeidhum?? [thiru 4-3-10] [I praised him, the entire seven worlds
fully praised him, then he himself tried talking his greatness but where is the
end to it?] (vaikundha selvanar) but what difference will all these praises bring in him since he is lord of the
great Srivaikundha. He remains the
same; (magizhAdha vaikundha selvanar) Rudra who praises the lord now when
filled with rajo/tamo gunas wages a war against him. So the lord remains quiescent. Why should he react to these unstable
prayers when he is always filled with the extreme joy listening to the praises
of the nithya sooris ever filled with deep
devotion? (selvanar sEvadi mEl pAttu) My song will be directed only towards that
?thiruvukkum thiru? wealth of Sridevi herself and not towards any other lowly
human. Thus declares thirumazhisai piran in this
paasuram (To
