1.  Emperumaan shows Himself the Supremacy of His peerless, unbounded,
Primordial Chief of everything and everyone by differing from the rest in
all respects. He rules with the fullest capability, all Seven worlds from
that unparalleled Supreme Top, position; He is the Only Greatest Supreme
Chief of both this and the upper world; Such Most Grandest Lord, has taken
such Sowlabhya Avathaars in compatible with the earthly human beings and
has endured with tremendous patience all their errors and apachaarams and
destroyed their enemies too to protect them. He killed the asurA who had
come as kEsi, the horse. Such Glorious KaNNan, My Emperumaan- Raising both
my hands completely above my head and paying obeisance to Him- I am able
to sing in praise of Him and am able to adorn His Head with my garland of
such pAsurams. I have been blessed with such puNyams. Hereafter, THERE IS
NO GRIEVANCE FOR ME EVEN IF I HAVE TO TAKE SEVEN MORE BIRTHS;

3168:
maiya kaNNaaL malarmEl uRaivaaL* uRaimaarbinan,*
seyya kOlath thadangaNNan* viNNOr perumaan_ dhannai*
moyya sollaal isaimaalaigaL Eththi* uLLap peRREn,*
veyya nOYgaL muzhudhum* viyan_NYaalaththu veeyavE.	4.5.2

2.  My Emperumaan, The Most Beautiful Red Lotus eyed Lord, is the Chief of
NityasUris. Periya Piraati, Sri MahAlakshmi, the One who has the Most
Merciful, Most Beautiful Dark eyes (with Kaajal in Her eyes), the One who
sits gracefully on the Lotus Flower, is staying in His Chest. He is the
GOD of everyone- I am blessed to compose and sing in praise of such GREAT
Lord of mine and make garland of words to decorate His ThirumEni. It is my
Parama Bhagyam to praise Him even from this world of sorrows, due to which
all the karmic diseases (including living in this cruel (materialistic?)
world) are hereby removed AUTOMATICALLY.  Like that, I have been enjoying
tremendous Bliss of His GuNAs.

3169:
veevil inbamiga* _ellai nigazhndha nNam achchudhan,*
veevil seeran malarkkaNNan* viNNOr perumaan_dhannai,*
veevil kaalam isaimaalaigaL Eththi* mEvappeRREn,*
veevil inbamiga* ellai nigazhndhanan mEviyE.	4.5.3

3.  Achuthan, My Emperumaan, has got CEASELESS, Never ending, Ever
Permanent pErAnandham; The Parama Padham which if full of such ANANDHAM
only and nothing else, itself is HIS SRI VAIKUNTAM. He is equipped with
EVER PERMANENT Most Auspicious Glorious kalyANa guNAs (attributes). Look
at His Eyes that are MOST BEAUTIFUL and  SO GRACEFUL like the JUST BLOOMED
cute Lovely Red Lotuses; Those two Divine Beautiful eyes SPEAK Volumes and
Volumes about The ParamAnandham (Great Enjoyment, Bliss) that He has quite
naturally. I am greatly blessed to sing,  without any interruption or
hurdles, in praise of Such Lord, who is the Chief of Nitya sUris. I have
thereby obtained the limitless, endless Aanandham to the fullest extent.

3170:
mEvi ninRu thozhuvaar* vinaipOga mEvumpiraan,*
thooviyam puLLudaiyaan* adalaazhiyammaan _dhannai,
naaviyalaal isai maalaigaL Eththi* nNaNNappeRREn,*
aavi ennaaviyai* yaanaRiyEn seydhavaaRRaiyE.	4.5.4

4.  Without expecting any benefit/fruit, those bhakthAs who pay obeisance
to Him as their duty get their karmic diseases removed AUTOMATICALLY by
Him. He showers so much mercy and grace on His such ParamaikAnthis. He
also unites and joins with them fully. He has the Most Strongest Divine
ChakrA; He comes so gracefully riding on The Divine GarudAzhwAr; I am most
fortunate to have the capacity to sing with my tongue, in praise of Such
Greatest Emperumaan, The SarvEshwaran. He has spanned Himself in all
beings and non-beings, and in everything and in everyone; Such Greatest
Emperumaan has also entered into the core of my atom-sized jIvAthman and
given me Tremmmmendous Happiness and Bliss as much as He has. Is it just
possible to praise Him in just simple pAsurams? (Definitely not;)

3171:
aaRRa nalla vagaikaattum ammaanai,* amarardham-
ERRai* ellaap poruLum viriththaanai emmaan_dhannai,*
maaRRa maalai punaindhEththi* naaLum magizhveydhinEn,*
kaaRRin munnam kadugi* vinainNOygaL kariyavE.	4.5.5

5.  Emperumaan, step, by step, slowly and steadily showed Himself ALL His
kalyANa guNAs and made me enjoy Him to the Fullest and Greatest extent.
Like that, for such a lowly mortal, self like me, He, The Most Grandest
Lord of NityasUris, has lowered Himself and stooped down to my such lowest
level. How great His Sowlabhyam is! He Himself has explained everything in
detail to Arjun in gItA. He is My Master- About Him, I am blessed with the
capacity of singing and making a garland of words of praise. Due to that,
all my paapams and karma vinais have vanished are burnt to ashes; they
have gone off faster than the wind. All my bondage  has been removed and I
am getting an eternal Bliss of singing Thiruvaaimozhi.

3172:
kariya mEnimisai* veLiya neeRu siRidhEyidum,*
periya kOlath thadangaNNan* viNNOr perumaan_dhannai,*
uriya sollaal isaimaalaigaL Eththi* uLLap peRRERku,*
ariyadhundO enakku* inRu thottum iniyenRumE?	4.5.6

6.  (Last pAsuram, AzhwAr declared that all his bondage have gone off- Now
what do you want asks the Lord; AzhwAr in this pAsuram replies thus)
Emperumaan has got the Most Gracefule, Big Dark, Blue hued ThirumEni
(Divine Body). In that exquiesitely beautiful Body of His, there so nice
dark large, reddy lined, Eyes; To add to that beauty, the kaajal (anjana
choorNam) is applied on His eyes lightly and decoratively. Such Most
Gorgeous looking KaNNan, My Lord is the Chief of NityasUris. I have been
singing in praise of Him and making a garland of appropriate words; After
having been blessed with such an ability, what else is the rarest thing
hereafter for me? (Nothing else). (Thirukkuraugaippiraan PiLLaan,- the
disciple of Sri RamanujA, the one wrote the commentary for Thiruvaaimozhi,
as per Sri RamanujA's instruction- comments that the anjan choorNam as
PacchaikaRpoora choorNam.)

3173:
enRum onRaagi* oththaarum mikkaargaLum,* than thanakku-
inRi ninRaanai* ellaa ulagum udaiyaan dhannai,*
kunRam onRaal mazhaikaaththapiraanaich* chol maalaigaL,*
nanRu soottum vidhiyeydhinam* enna kuRainNamakkE?	4.5.7

7.  There has been no one, nor will there be anyone who is equal to
Emperumaan (why to talk about superiority?). For His sowlabhyam and His
mercy, dayA in every respect, there is NO ONE absolutely NO ONE equal to
Him, but Himself. He is the One, Sarva sowlabhyan, who lifted the Big
Govardhanagiri (The mountain called Govardhanam) and protected His aayar
kulam and the cattle. He has blessed me with this capacity of praising His
Glories in such garlands of words. Hence, what is my grievance hereafter?
(none)

3174:
namakkum poovinmisai nangaikkum* inbanai,* NYaalaththaar-
thamakkum* vaanaththavarkkum perumaanai,* thaN thaamarai-
sumakkum* paadhap perumaanaich* sol_maalaigaL, sollumaaRu-
amaikka vallERku* iniyaavar nigar agalvaanaththE?	4.5.8

8.  Since I have caught hold of His Lotus Feet, He has become so sweet and
dear to me; He is also dear and sweet to Periya Piraatti, Sri MahAlakshmi,
the One sits on the Lotus Flower. He, The Chief of NityasUris and the
whole universe as well, has got His Lotus Feet, carried by the Coolese
Lotus Flowers below the Feet; He has graced me with His blessings and
enabled me to sing in praise of such Lord, My Emperumaan. Hence, (you can
say that) there CAN NOT BE ANYONE equal to me in this world and the Parama
Padh am as well after being blessed with such a capacity by the Peerless
Emperumaan. (why AzhwAr says this is because it is extremely difficult
rather impossible to sing in His praise in the midst of all these cruel,
materialistic, dark, karmic world and earthly life, full of miserables; It
is easier to do the same in Sri Vaikuntam ehere everyone does the same and
it does not take extra effort.- On the same token, when AnasUyA, the Rishi
Pathni, admired SitA Piraatti's PathivarathA guNA, Piraati says: Had RamA
been a kurUpi (ugly) or less perfect or of bad character and if I am still
a PathivrathA, it is a credit; Sri Raman- DharmO Vigrahavaan- Sathya
ParAkraman- RajIva Lochanan- Most Beautiful lord of mine- being a
PativarathA is not natural.- How nice !)

3175:
vaanaththum vaanaththuLLumbarum*  maNNuLLum maNNin_keezhth
thaanaththum,* eNthisaiyum thaviraathu*  nNinRaan_dhannai,*
koonaR saNGgath thadakkaiyavanaik*  kudamaadiyai vaanak
kOnaik,* kavisolla vallERku*  inimaaRundO?	4.5.9

9.  Emperumaan spans Himself everywhere; exists everywhere and in
everyone; dEvalOkA, BrahmalOkA, bhUlOkA, pAthAL lOkA, etc., etc.. He is
there in all directions; He has the curved Divine Conch in His hand. I
sing in praise of Him, Such Greatest Emperumaan, who danced with a pot on
His Head; When I (the Lowly erathly self) am able to sing in praise of
that Lord, Can anyone be equal to me? (No. I am the most superior of all
for being blessed with this capacity).

3176:
undum umizhnNdhum  kadandhum  idandhum* kidandhum nNinRum,*
konda  kOlaththodu veeRRirundhum* maNangoodiyum,*
kanda vaaRRaal thanadhE*  ulagena ninRaan_dhannai,*
vaN_thamizh nooRka nORREn*  adiyaarkku inbamaariyE.	4.5.10

10.  Emperumaan retained the Entire universe in His stomach and protected
during the Cosmic Cycle end and spat the same later after to bring back
the sustenance.. He measured the entire universe in one step as
Thrivikraman. He brought the Mother earth during Varaaha avathaar. He lied
down (on the Dharbham - grass bed waiting for the Samudhra Rajan- the king
of ocean at ThiruppullaNi). He showed Himself victroiously after wnning
the battle at LankA. Then, He gracefully adorned the SimhAsanam (the
throne) at AyOdhyA by standing as the PattAbhirAmar, during His
PattAbhishEkham. When we look at such actions of His, we can very easily
find out that He alone is the Chief of the worlds. About  Him, to sing in
praise of Him  in these pAsurams, How much puNyam I have committed!
(really, dear sisters and brothers, How much puNyams have WE committed in
OUR births to be blessed with such AzhwAr's mahA anubhavams!). These
pAsurams (as well as the AzhwAr) are like the clouds that give the rains
of eternal happiness to his BhagwathAs. (vaN thamizh nURka nORREn
adiyaarkku inbha maariyE- this means I have composed these  pAsurams like
the clouds of happiness; OR adiyaarkku inbha maariyaana naan , vaN
than\mizh nURka nORREn- i.e. I, the one who is like the cloud oof
happiness, have composed.) In this pAsuram the first line goes thus: uNdum
umizhndhum kadandhum idandhum kidandhum ninRum.. UNdum- eaten; umizhndhum-
spat; kadandhum- measured, idandhum- brought back; kidandhum-lied down;
ninRum- stood gracefully;- in just one line, please look at AzhwAr's play
of words!

3177:##

vEri maaRaatha poomEliruppaaL* vinaitheerkkumE.       (2) 4.5.11

11.  In the cool mountains of ThiruvENkadam, it always rains and helps the
world. ThiruvEnkadamudaiyaan, Sri NivAsa PerumAL, stands gracefully
(raining His dayA on the world and helps us) at TirumalA. About Him,
AzhwAr has sung 1000 pAsurams; AzhwAr, sri sadagOpar, was born in
Thirukkurugoor. Out of those 1000, these ten verses (pAsurams) will SURELY
and CERTAINLY bless its readers THE MERCIFUL katAksham of Sri MahAlakshmi.
Their karmic diseases will AUTOMATICALLY get cured. (can anyone be
superior or equal to us?)
