Meaning:
O lord Muruga, let me see you seated on your peacock, with your spear,
please grant us all glory, peace and prosperity
Many a devotee of yours is here, please liberate us
You, an end to the endless, as to the demons
You, the basis of thought, the fire and courage, please show yourself to me
You who destroys the basis of all worry, let me see you, O Lord!
Grant me the life immortal, I bow to you
You shatter all our troubles, I surrender to you, our Light
In the temple of wisdom, on the lap of mother Grace,
May you appear with your spear, to give new life to your devotees, on earth
O teacher! the son of Lord Siva,the flame in the cave
Grant us toil and its fruits, O immortal Lord, I surrender to you
