thirucciRRambalam

 

Meaning:

Not having somebody who could say, "What dear, Don't

be

afraid !", I was hopelessly wandering. Oh the Lord

like the lightning, You are abandoning me ! If a real

comparison is to be said for You, You only are Your

simile ! Oh the King of the glorious uththtara

kOcamaN^gai, You are like the mother, You are like the

father for me, oh my Precious One !

 

Notes:

1. To seek refuge, the qualified is the God both in

terms of meritoriousness as well as omnipotence to

protect. So the soul pleads to God "Don't leave me

off, because other than You there is no reliable hold

!"

2. Typically (positive) simile is used to glorify an

object by referring to the similarity with a much

greater object. However in case of God all the similes

are used to understand at least at a much scaled down

level of glory by comparing to the highest possible

glorious things we are aware of. So if a real

comparison to be made for God, it could be with none

other than the God Itself !

c.f. uvamanil iRan^thana - thiruvAcakam

Or uvamanilli - appar

3. eyththal - become weary; aththan - father.
