see 1st verse.
you do not give any reply to my request you keep silent.
you voluntarily admitted me as your slave saying I shall help you to live.
I am a hereditary slave to you
you have plenty of wealth.
you have not become poor.
in the heap of rare wealth which you have accumulated in beautiful ārūr.
I must get one third of the three portions, which I think I must get.
I will not allow you to go beyond out at any time, if you do not give me;
I shall catch hold of your legs.
I want a galloping horse whose speed is like the wind;
to ride upon.

O, happy Seasider on Naagaikkaaronam! A servitor am I of lasting lineage! You on your own promised to take me in
as your slave and grace me. Very opulent are you. Not at all poor. Yet you speak not a word but keep mum;
of thy wealth you heaped in fair Aaroor, won\\\'t you give a third of it as I would need; also to get going, I need a steed
with wind swift trot! If you don\\\'t give these,
I would clasp your feet pair tight, never to let you step a notch even!
Translation: S. A. Sankaranarayanan, Kumbakonam, 2020
