Step in to this world in the form of a teacher in this world of ours,Īnd tell me with happiness that this is its real meaning OH god who rides on an elephant and eats three fruits,Ĭut off the trance like feeling of this illusory birth,įive lettered Namasivaya, enter then in to my mind, Porundave vanthu yen ullam thannil pugundhu, Thirundhiya mudal aindu ezhthum thelivaay, Stood in awe at the wish giving elephant. His divine knowledge of Thuriya, his mastery over words,
His glowing broad chest wearing the holy thread, His three eyes, three trails of his feets, Hanging mouth, his four sets of shoulders, Shine in pretty and beautiful colours of the rainbow,Įlephant like face, the saffron dot applied on it,įive hands and the goad and rope that he has, Sings various songs, while the golden waist belt, Which has the colour of the red hibiscus flower, While the anklets on the cool sandal anointed feet Thiranda muppiri nool thigazh oli maarbum, It clearly brings out the mastery of Avvaiyar in the Yoga, tantric practices and Saivism, possibly derived from the contribution of Sidhas in Tamil Nadu and the Tamil Nadu Saivism. This prayer is an extremely popular one in Tamil Nadu. He is addressed as Vinayagar (he who removes obstacles) or Pillayar in Tamil. There are many references to her being a great Devotee of Lord Subrahmanya.Īgaval means blank poetry and it is a song addressed to Lord Ganapati. Apart from being a great poet, she played a very great role in the politics. Avaiyar was one of the great female poets of ancient Tamil Nadu.
