thirucciRRambalam

 

Meaning:

For me, who is everyday involved in the nice service for Thee,

if one day request something for me, please bless (grant),

oh the Ultimate, Who unable to find a similar young white bull

-the unparalleled, for the uma of fruity nice voice, got (Her)

along (on the same bull)!

 

Notes:

1. In many of the songs the mother saint kAraikkAl ammaiyAr

jovially hails the Lord. Here is one sample. One could read it as,

"We are totally into Your service. One day, if there is a need

and we ask you something You need to give. By the way,

You were not able to find even a spare bull for umA and

got Her also on Yours!"

However this underscores the matchless nature of the

Lord's vehicle - bull - that signifies justice.

2. thoNDai - sweet voice.
