TIRUVIRUTTAM
And
THE AUSPICIOUS QUALITIES OF THE LORD (14)
-----
66. He graces us with such a knowledge (j~nAnam) which
even the great yogis acclaim.
?uNNAthu uRankAthu uNarvuRum etthannai yOgiyarkkum
eNNAy miLiRum iyalvinavAm eri neer vaLI vAn
maNNAkiya emperumAn thanathu vaikuntham annAL
kaNNAy aruvinaiyEn utirayina kAvikaLE?
(The Lady-love who is just like the SrIvaikuNtam of
the Lord, the embodiment of the five elements, is
worth enjoyable always; her eyes, like the blue
lilies, are the very soul of mine who is sinful, are
of the nature which is adorable even by the sages who
have attained the highest yogic powers by meditating
constantly without food and sleep for long time.)
[This is the statement of the hero who is enjoying the
bliss that is being provided by the beautiful eyes of
his lady-love. He compares the bliss to that which is
obtained only in SrIvaikuNtam; that bliss is being
held in high esteem by all great yogis.]
67. He graces us the fitness to live for ever on His
TiruvEnkata hill.
?MAdavan Govindan
vEnkatam cEr
thooviyam pEdai annAL kaNkaLAya thuNai malarE?
(She is like the beautiful swan which lives taking as
its permanent abode in the TiruvEnkata hill of the
Lord, Who is known as MAdavan [the Consort of SrI],
and as Govinda [the protector of the cows]; her eyes
appear like lotus-twins.)
{This is also a statement of the hero who is enjoying
for ever the bliss provided by his lady-love.}
68. For the sake of the devotees, He measures the
world and makes it equal to SrIvaikuntam.
?porukadal-choozh
nilam thAviya emperumAn thanathu vaikuntam annAy?
(Oh, you are comparable to the SrIvaikuntam of the
Lord who measured the world surrounded by the ocean
with full of high waves.)
69. For the sake of those devotees who have a strong
faith that the Lord will certainly shower His grace
upon them, He takes pleasure in obtaining all the
worlds by even resorting to begging.
?bhuvaniyellAm
neer ERRu aLantha nediya pirAn aruLavidumO??
(Won?t the Lord, who got all the worlds on
measurement, by begging from MahAbali, grant His grace
to us?)
70. In order to provide His grace to the devotees by
increasing in multiple terms their love, He is wearing
the Tulasi garland on His crown.
?vaLaivAyt thiruchakkaratthu enkaL vAnavanAr
mudimEl
thaLaivAy naRunkaNNit thaNNan thuzhAykku vaNNam
payalai viLaivAn .. ?
(The pleasant Tulasi garland, adorning the crown of
our Lord, Who is holding the sharp discus in hands and
staying in SrIvaikuntam, kindles in me a great longing
for Him.)
