Pallavi:
Punnagai Onre Podhume Igha Para
Virundhaagume Marundhaagume (Un)
Anupallavi:
Than Nigar Illada Sundara Tholudayai
Vannamai Marbamar Vanithayudan
(un)
Charanam:
Nirainthu Nindrai Asura Baalanai
Kaathida
Paranthu Sendrai Oru Yaanaiku Parindida
Nadanthu Sendrai Kanni Sapamu Agatrida
Nayandoru Nangaikku Arul Surandai
Madhyama kala sahityam:
Paranthu Nadamini Nondhida
Vendam Padamalar Paniyum Adimai Yennaku (un)
MEANING:
O Rama! Your smile (“punnagai”) alone (“onre”) is
enough for me. Your smile is equivalent (“agume”) to
several (“para”) sumptuous feasts (“virundhu”) or
medicines (“marundhu”) for our afflictions.
There is no one (“illaada”) equal (“nigar”) to you (“Than”). O, the one with (“udayai”) beautiful (“sundara”)
shoulders (“Thol”) ! I want
to see your smile as you bear (“amar”) the two devis (“vanithai”) inseparably in
your chest (“marbu”).
To protect (“Kaathida”) Prahlada
(“asura balai”), you appeared and stood (“Nindrai”) from everywhere (“Nirandhu”)
as Narasimha.
To protect (“parindida”)
Gajendra, an (“oru”) elephant (“yaanai”),
you went (“sendrai”) flying (“parandhu”).
To absolve (“agatrida”)
Ahalya, the damsel (“kanni”),
from her curse (“saapamu”), you went (“sendrai”) walking (“nadandhu”) as
Rama.
As Krishna, you blessed (“arul surandai”) and cured a (“oru”) old hunchback woman (“nayandhu
nangai”) of her disease.
You do not have to strain (“nondhida”) yourself by flying (“parandhu”)
to me or walking (“nada”) to me today (“ini”). I (“yennakku”), your devotee (“adimai”)
who worships (“paniyum”) your feet (“padamalar”),
need your (“un”) smile (“punnagai”) only.
Pallavi:
Punnagai Onre Podhume Igha Para
Virundhaagume Marundhaagume (Un)
[O Rama! Your smile (“punnagai”) alone (“onre”) is
enough for me.]
