My soul has united with the Lord and has become one

with Him, who is the first cause of the eternal beings and who gave the nectar

to the devas and was the beloved of the cowherds. How can it be parted from Him

again?

 

amaramuzhumudhal= here amarar means the

nithyasoories like Garuda and Anantha. The Lord was the muzhumudhal of them

meaning, the first and whole cause of them all because He was the aadhi, the

only Being in the beginning , one only without a second.

 

amararkku

amudhu eendha – He is the one who helped the devas to get nectar from the sea, by

carrying the mandhara mountain to the sea, bearing it on His back, joined the

devas to help them in churning, held the top of the mountain with Hid hand and

finally took it away from the asuras who confiscated it from the devas by

taking the form of Mohini. That is why Azvar says that the Lord it was

who gave the nectar to them.

 

aayarkozhundhai- He was the beloved of

the gopas to whom He Himself was the nectar.

 

en

aavi amara azhumbha thuzhaavi- my soul has become close and enjoyed His company

 

amaratthazhuvuttru-

united

with Him in close embrace. neeranDhra samslesham.

 

ini

agalumO-

Is it possible to leave Him now?

He will come near if one goes near Him. If we go

away from Him, He will allow us to go and wait till the time we come back. He

is difficult to attain for those who have no devotion but easily accessible to

those who are His devotees. We are never tired of singing His glory day and

night, engrossed in Him.

 

agalil- if one goes away

 

agalum- He will also go away. udhaaseena

vath aaseenam, as He says in Gita. He stays away as if he is indifferent

but He is not so in reality. He simply waits till the one who goes away from

Him learns his lesson and comes back. It is like a mother who allows her child

who is adamant to go out when restricted and waits patiently till he hurts

himself or gets hungry and comes back crying.

 

aNugil

aNugum-

If we go to Him He meets us halfway and takes us in His arms like the mother who picks up

her crying child who throws away all his toys and wants only the mother.

 

pugalum

ariyan- He

is inaccessible to those who have no devotion towards Him.

 

poruvu

allan-

he is easy to attain for those who love Him. Arjuna who approached Him with

love got Him and victory because if the Lord is on our side what else one needs

for success? But Duryodhana wanted only

the army which is worthless with out the Lord and went away.

 

nigar

il avan-

He who is matchless

 

pugazh

paadi-

singing His praise

 

iLaippilam- we never get tired

 

pagalum

Thondar adippodi azvar said `achuthaa amararErE aayar tham kozhundhE ennum icchuvai thavira yaan

pOi indhiralokam aaLum acchuvai perineum vEndEn `

 

" I do not wish for anything else , even the mastery

over heaven except to be here and

sing your names."

 

Hanuman did not want to go to vaikunta with Rama

when His incarnation was over because he

could not hear the devotees singing His name there.
