Orutthi maganaayp pirandhu oriravil
Born to a certain woman in one night
Orutthi maganaay olitthu valara
Brought up hidden as another’s child
Tharikkillanagith thaan theengu ninaittha
in Many ways sought to harm you
Karutthai pizhaippitthuk kanjan vayittril
created terror in his stomach
Neruppenna nindra nedumaale ! unnai
You who stood like the fire, to You
Aruththithu vandom parai tharudiyaagil
Wantonly we came to you seeking your grace
Thiruthakka selvamum sevakamum yaam paadi
We sing about your limitless grace and service to you
Varuthamum theerndhu magizhndelor empavai
will be rid of our sorrows and be happy my girls
Andal continues singing the Lord’s praise. Krishna, you were born to one woman (Devaki), but had to be hidden and brought up as the son of another woman (Yashoda) . the demon Kamsan who came to know about this sought to harm you in many ways, but you creator terror in his mind and made his stomach burn like a raging fire. We are here to sing about your Glory and if you bestow grace on us and fulfill our wishes we will rejoice and be rid of all our sorrows and be happy ever. This is the second of the five verses that sing the praise of the Lord after he wakes up. In all these five verses the worship is so powerful invoking the great qualities of the Lord with appropriate references and reiterating the fact and desire that the Lord will bestow grace and fulfill the desires, but not mentioning the desire till the very end.
