Shrimathe Ramanujaya Namaha Dear Shri Swami, Thanks for the explanation. Even if we take the word by word literal translation, Engane-in whatever way <-- Engane means HOW EVER and not whatever. As Smt Nappinnai pointed out, would mean, singing, or chanting or reciting or even shuffling of the ten pasurams(not reciting necessarily in the andhadhi order). But based on my little knowledge of tamil, I doubt whether it could be used as "even if it is wrong" or "with mistakes". Moreover, if we take the word by word translation, we see that Ahzwar is propogating that his songs would give happiness in whatever way it is recited - which would become a subjective discussion i.e from Azhwar's Perspective. That is why, I am afraid to take up a word by word translation. "Ingane Sonna Oraayiratthippatthu" does not literally mean these ten pasurams, but the contents and the meanings. And hence, "Engane sollinum Inbam Payakkume", seen from an Objective perspective, would mean, whether you tell in your own words, or use these words or shuffle or HOWEVER, the object would be lord Shriman Narayanan and hence it would give happiness - is what needs to be understood. Kindly correct me if I was mistaken. Please don't hesitate to point out my mistakes. I would be glad to correct them. Once again, thanks for the explanation.
