Emperuman asked, "Oh! Azhveer you talked about not forgetting even a second in the past, will you forget in the future?"

 

Azhvar answers, 'Oh! My lord can one who have known and experienced your divine qualities and acts ever forget you?'

 

 

(kAppu maRandhaRiyEn) Oh lord! Do you think that I have forgotten the way you have protected me inside the womb? And even after my birth I have always been under your protective cover.

How can I forget you?

 

What if you get immersed in other pleasures or other modes to attain the goal?

 

 

(kaNNanE endRiruppan) I will always consider Krishna alone to be the means and goal.

Why should I search for other ways?

 

(Appang kuzhaiyavum palluyirkkum Akkai koduththaLiththa kOnE) When all the athmas suffered losing their body and senses you were the one who granted them the same;

 

Appu-It is the one that binds jeevas to the ocean of samsara;

 

 

(kOnE) You saved your property since you are the owner.

After knowing all this that you have saved me when I was in the womb and when in this world and that you were the one who granted us body and senses since you are our master and hence you reserve the responsibility to protect your property can I ever forget you?

 

 

(gunapparanE) One who is filled with divine qualities;

"vuyar vara vuyar nalam vudaiyavan" (thiruvai 1-1-1)

Will your divine qualities ever leave my minds?

 

(vunnai vidaththuNiyAr mei theLindhAr thAm) Those who have clearly understood you, will never leave you;

 

 

Can I leave you saying you didn't protect me in danger?

 

Can I leave you saying you didn't help me?

Can I leave you saying you are not filled with divine qualities?

 

Can I leave you saying you and I have no relationship? (you are my master)

 

 

'So I cannot leave you giving any reason and hence I will never forget you' says thirumazhisaipiran.
