O Soul that abides ensouling the soul,
praise be!
O One that parts not from the manam of loving ones,
praise be!
O Patron,
praise be!
O Bridegroom,
praise be!
O Great One
That cut the shoulder of the King of the celestials,
praise be!
O the supremely different One that rides the white Bull,
praise be!
O the loftiest One,
greatest among the great,
praise be!
O the One sporting the clear-watered Ganga
In your matted hair,
praise be!
O Tirumoolattaana,
praise be,
praise be!
