Context: Andal's thirty songs contain the cardinal principles of Vaishnava dharma during the month of Marghazhi. Vaishnavas sing
these songs to bring peace, prosperity and Divine Grace. Andal assumes the guise of a cowherd girl in these 30 verses. Andal appears
intent upon performing a particular religious vow to marry the Lord, thereby obtain His everlasting company, and inviting all her
girl-friends to join her. Towards the end we learn that she did not actually perform a religious rite; but is simply praying to be
granted the service of the Lord for eternity. She yearns for everlasting happiness and service of the Lord.
Translation By Dr. V.K.S.N. Raghavan
(Slowly and gradually , the young gopis could find Lord KrishNA
(1) sleeping
(2)getting up and
(3) walking towards them .
In the meanwhile , when He walks , they perform mangaLAsAsanam for His ThiruvadigaL: "Earlier-- on that day (long ago) You
measured this Universe ( with this pair of feet); ( now we hail) protection and glory to such a pair of Your feet . Earlier (long ago),
You went there to LankA in the Southern region and killed RaavaNA , the aparAdhi; ( we proclaim) protection and glory to Your
enormous vanquishing power. You gave a kick to sakatAsurA ( the asuran, who came in the form of a cart to crush You) and You
destroyed Him with Your Thiruvadi; (we hail) glory and safety to Your fame. (Bending Your feet in stiff posture) You threw the calf
(vathsAsuran) like a fierce rock-like stick against another demon (KappittAsuran) , who had taken the form of a wood-apple tree , so
that both of them were kiled simultaneously ; (we hail) glory and safety to Your victorious anklet and feet (that performed this
miracle). You have lifted aloft the GovardhanA mountain just as an umbrella ; (we sing) hail and safety to Your pristine merits and
grace . You hold in Your hand , a powerful spear that completely subjugates and eradicates Your enemies; (we sing)" hail and glory
to that spear in Your hand " --thus , indeed , do we hail and sing Your miraculous deeds , valour and auspicious ThiruvadikaL. We
have come to Your side today now to offer our prayers and to seek the drum (paRai) from You , So Please be compassionate to us ,
who seek eternal Kaimkaryam to You.
