1.KESAVAN thamar....emmaan NARAYANANAALE..  ...All my relatives in my
lineage over seven generations above and seven generations below HAVE ALL
BECOME the BhAgavatOttamALs of KESAVAN. They have been blessed to obtain
the grace of Him; With this GRAND Grant, our lives have become and grown
to a GREAT EXTENT. My Lord is the Black Emerald SRIMAN NARAYANAN. He, the
Chief of NityasUris- He is SO MERCIFUL to us for me and my relatives;

2968:

vaaraNaththai marupposiththa piraan* en maathavanE.	2.7.2

2.NAARANAN....piraan en MADHAVANE..  ..NARAYANAN -the Chief of seven
lOkAs; the embodiment of vEdAs; the essence of vEdAs; the fruit of our
bhakti; the Primordial Chief; He, the One who is always worshipped by
NityasUris and others, is the One who broke the tusks of "kuvalayApeetam"
elephant during krishNAvathaaram; That MADHAVAN is my father.

2969:

kOthavamilen kannal katti* emmaan en kOvindhanE.	2.7.3

3.MADHAVAN enRathE...emmaan en GOVINDHANE..  ..The moment I uttered
MADHAVAN, He entered into my heart; He showered so much grace and mercy
and ensured that "In future no kind of ills and sorrows shall come near
me". His Beautiful Red Lotus Eyes are like the SWEET nectar. His Divine
Body (thirumEni) is like a Big Mountain; He is Blemishless and is like a
"kalkaNdu" (Sugar stone) to me; He is that GOVINDHAN.

2970:

paavandhannaiyum* paaRakkaiththu emar Ezhezhu piRappum,*
mEvum thanmaiyamaakkinaan* vallan empiraan vittuvE.	2.7.4

4.GOVINDHAN...empiraan VITTUVE (vishNuvE)..  ..The Most Strongest
Emperumaan VISHNU has made me the most capable person; He has enabled me
to call Him as "GOVINDHA! GopAlA!" and address His most auspicious
attributes and His strengths; He has granted me with His mercy and enabled
me dance singing His Glories all the time; He has enslaved me and has
DESTROYED all my sins accrued over the ages; All my relatives from all my
previous janmams(births) have been blessed by Him to reach His LotusFeet;

2971:

vittilaNGku mathiyamsIr* saNGkusakkaramparithi,*
vittilaNGku mudiyammaan* mathusoothanan _thanakkE.	2.7.5

5.VITTIlanghu...MADHUSOODHANAN thanakkE..  ..MADHUSOODHANAN-the One who
has the most lustrous shining face and head, has got His Feet, Limbs and
Eyes like Red Lotus Flowers; His Divine Body is like a Big Group of Light.
His Lustrous Divine Conch is like a shining moon; His Divine ChakrA is
like the Sun.

2972:

vithi soozndhathaal enakkEl ammaan* thirivikkiramanaiyE.	2.7.6

6.MADHUSOODHANaianRi...THRIVIKRAMANAIYE..  ..I have no other refuge other
than MADHUSOODHANAN; and There is no USE EVEN from others; hence, for
ever, I SHALL CONTINUE to pray to Him dancing and singing His Glories to
obtain the opportunity for mOksham; When I was trying for all other
'WORLDLY" matters (AzhwAr says "izhavu" for materialistic pursuits - an
excellent- most appropriate word- :"andha izhavukkutthAnE naam naayaa
alaiyarOm"), He intervened in between and came in front of me; To capture
me, He took so many Excellent Avataars; With the GRACE of THRIVIKRAMAN, I
was DESTINED to fall into His trap; HOW MERCIFUL IS HE, MY LORD
THRIVIKRAMAN!  (WOW! What a usage and How nicely put by AzhwAr about the
"MaarjAla saraNagathi" here- while it is actually a COMBINATION and the
CROSS BREED OF MAARJAALAM and MATKATAKAM that does the trick for ALL
BHAGAVATHAALS, SISTERS and BROTHERS!- It is correct that mother knows to
feed the kid but the cry only will bring the mother to its attention to
get the milk)

2973:

7.THRIVIKRAMAN senthAmaraikkaNN..en VAAMANANE..  ..THRIVIKRAMAN-the Red
Lotus Eyed Lord measured the World in three Feet(measures); His Red Coral
lipped mouth has got the miky whitish crystal like TEETH which is most
beautiful to look at; (seyya vaai aiyO en sinthai kavarndhadhuvE); He is
the One, who granted me the MIND to keep thinking of Him, to keep siging
about Him and to keep paying obeisances to Him; My VAAMANAA! I can say
that You Are  the Only One who is capable of Everything.

2974:

8.VAMMANAN en maragatha vaNNan...en SIREEDHARANE..  ..VAAMANAA! The Colour
of Sapphire! The Red Lotus Eyed Lord! the Father of Cupid! - Like that, I
sang and prayed at Your Lotus Feet and became PURE. You granted me the
mind to keep thinking of You for ever and let me het rid of the Bad Heart
(which ran after sensual pleasures!) and of the disease of Births; MY
SIREEDHARAA! HOW CAN I PAY YOU BACK FOR THAT YOU HAVE DONE TO ME, LORD.

2975:

9.SIREEDHRAN seyya...en IRUDEEKESANE..  ..My IRUDEEKESAA!( HrishikEshA!)
You have encaptured Yourself in me and stayed there; After having got rid
of the sins accrued (and the consequences arising out of them!), and the
Greatest Bliss and Enjoyment of Your anubhavam has been GROWING DAY BY DAY
since then exponentially and You are ENSURING these things by staying in
my heart PERENNIALLY without LEAVING ME. I shall pray to You, sing about
You; call You "SREEDHARAA!, SENTHAAMARAIKKANNAA! (Red Lotus Eyed Lord!)"
and day and night- I shall pay obeisances to You with TEARS ROLLING DOWN
THE CHEEKS and my mouth and lips UTTERING YOUR NAMES ALWAYS; HEART SIGHING
HEAVILY TO SEE YOU WITH MY EYES PHYSICALLY;

2976:

10.IRUDEEKESAN empiraan...PARPANAABHANAIYE(PadmanAbhanaiyE) ..Oh mind!
Since you have become wise, do not leave PADMANABHAN and pray to Him; Even
if you get totally confused and come across so many distractions, DO NOT
get carried away; STAND FIRM WITH YOUR WISDOM (AzhwAr is telling his mind
(or us?)!) Always meditate on Him; Always pay obeisance to Him and say
"IRUDEEKESAA! My Lord! The One who destroyed LankA! the Chief of dEvAs!"

2977:##

veRpan,* visumpOr_piraan* endhai thaamOtharanE.	2.7.11

11.PADMANAABHAN..enthai DAMODHARANE..  ..PADMANABHAN- the One who has got
Lotus Flower in His navel- has Got the GREATEST of GREATEST GLORIES and
STRENGTHS; He has enslaved me; HE OFFERED HIMSELF too to me; He is like
the kaRpaka vruksham (kaRpaka tree- in dEvalOkA- that is capable of
everything one wishes!) and is of Blue Hued Lord and stands at
ThiruvEnkadam; He is My father who is also the Chief of NityasUris- (Akila
jagadh swamin- and asmath swamin- Sriranga nAtha and mama nAthA!) He is
DAMODHARAN- the One who has got the marks of the rope (which was tied to
His Body by the MOST LUCKIEST YASODHA for His stealing butter!- in fact,
there is an interesting anecdote that uopn Mahalakshmi's request, when
Lord Sriman Narayana at Sri Vaikuntam helped Himself to get some fruits
from the tree, the "utthriyam"(upper piece of cloth) fell and exposed His
marks of the rope to MahAlakshmi and SHE SAW THE MARKS; Our "poor" Sriman
Narayana had to say all sorts of stories to cover up His mischiefs and
stealing acts (BUT FAILED)- Since then it seems He makes it a point to
wear the Golden waist band (OttiyaaNam) in order not to further
embarassment to Him- How Sweet it would have been to witness the
Primordial Chief- SARVA VALLABHAN - getting Himself tied down by a small
simple rope by the  ARIVONDRUMILLAADHA AAYKKULATTHU" yasOdhA- It appears
all dEvAs including Brahmaa and Sivan assembled at the sky and saw THIS
MOST SOWLABHYA EVENT;What a Lord! What a Lord! What a Lord is OUR SRIMAN
NARAYANAN!)

2978:

aamOtharamaRiya* emmaanai en aazivaNNanaiyE.	2.7.12

12.DAMODHARANAI..en AAZHIVANNANAIYE..  ..Who can understand my
Emperumaan?- the One who created the world and is the origin of Every
being; the One who kept everything in His stomach- He is DAMODHARAN; Like
that Sivan and Brahmaa have been uttering while paying obeisances to Him;
Even they-who  are in His body- can not attempt tocomprehend His calibre;

2979:##

paNNiR panniru_naamap paattu* aNNalthaaL aNaivikkumE.	2.7.13

13.vaNNamaa..aNNal thaaL aNaivikkumE..  ..the Thirumaal-the Nedumaal-the
Chief of NityasUris is the Most Beautiful Kannan; These 12 pAsurams out of
SadagOpar's 1000 pasurams which have been sung about KaNNan, will enable
its singers (or readers) reach HIS LOTUS FEET WITHOUT FAIL.- NOT TO WORRY.
