SHIVA PURANAM
Thollai irum piravi, soozhum thalai neeki

Thiruchitambalam
Sivapuranam meaning in English:
Long live Namasivaya, Long live the holy feet of our Lord,
Long live the feet of him who does not move away from my mind even for a second.
Long live the feet of my Guru who ruled over Thiruvavaduthurai(Thiruperum thurai ?)*,
Loading...
Long live the feet of him who became holy books and comes near us,
Long live the feet of the God who was one but appeared as many.
Let the feet of the God who stabilized my mind be victorious,
Let the valorous anklets of Lord Shiva, who cuts off cycle of birth be victorious
Let the flower like anklets of the God, who is scarce to those who stand away from him be victorious,
Let the anklets of king who happily lives in the mind of those who salute him be victorious,
Let the anklets of that great one who uplifts those who bend their head to him be victorious.
Praise to the feet of God, Praise to the feet of my father,
Loading...
Praise to the feet of my friend, praise to the red feet of shiva,
Praise to the feet of the pure god who stood in love,
Praise to the feet of the king who cuts off the illusion called birth,
Praise to the feet of god who is in holy Thiruperumthurai .
Praise to the God who gives the never fading joy like a mountain of mercy,
Because that Lord Shiva stood in my thought,
I would salute his feet by his grace,
And with a joyful mind recite the Shiva Purana,
Loading...
So that the entire Karma which I have earned earlier disappears.
I came because the god with an eye in his forehead showed me his eye of mercy,
And stood there saluting the anklet, whose prettiness is beyond the reach of the mind,
And oh God who filled the sky and the earth, and who is being seen as a glittering light,
Oh God who is beyond all limitations of barrier, I who am one with a bad karma,
And do not know the ways to praise your great qualities
Oh lord by becoming grass, small plants, worms, trees,
Several types of animals, birds, snakes,
Stone, human beings, ghosts, different types of devils,
Strong asuras, sages devas,
And I traveled all over this spectrum of moving and not moving things,
And took all types of births and became tired.
Truly I have attained salvation seeing your golden feet,
Oh God, who stood as letter “Om”, in my mind so that I would be saved,
Oh truth, oh purity, Oh Lord who rides on a bull,
Oh God whom Vedas called “Oh Lord”, with great surprise,
And tried to see you as taller, higher deeper though you are smaller than the small.
Oh divinely pure Lord who is heat, cold as well as life,
You came and showered your grace so that all lies are banished,
And shined as knowledge of the divine, Oh light of truth,
Oh God of sweetness to this one who does not have any knowledge,
Oh great wisdom, who is removing my ignorance .
Oh god who does not have birth, life or death,
You are the one who makes all the world,
You would protect, destroy and also shower your grace,
Destroy the illusion, and make me to serve you,
Oh god who is like a scented flower,
Though you are far, far away, you are near,
Oh Lord of Vedas, who is beyond mind and thought .
Oh my lord, who puts a stop to cycle of births,
By standing in the minds of great devotees,
Like honey which is the mixture of newly milked milk,
Honey and Ghee, you are the one having all the five colours,
And you were hiding from the view of devas,
Who were not able to see you and praise you, oh lord.
Please tie me, who is caught in the horrible past Kama,
And is being hidden completely by darkness of illusion
by considerations of all the acts,
That can be done and should not be done,
And tie me with a rope of sins and good acts
And further cover the dirt and worms of my inside by a skin,
And construct me as a hut with nine holes,
Through which all that is not wanted goes out,
With the five senses deceiving me and put me in to a stupor,
Oh God, who is pure, though I am With an unstable (animal like ) mind,,
Which does not merge with you due to extreme love,
Which does not melt on hearing you
And which does not have any good in it,
Loading...
You have taken mercy on this lowly one,
And came on this earth and showed me your long feet
And showed much more mercy than a mother,
To me who was lying even worse than a dog.
Oh blemish less flower like flame,
Which appears like a rising light,
Oh sparkling one, oh nectar like honey,
Oh Lord who has the city of Shiva,
Oh wise one who showered your grace,
By cutting off all my affectionate attachments,
Shower your friendly grace, cut of all hatred from my mind,
Oh great river of mercy, which never leaves my mind.
Oh never satiating nectar, Oh God who is beyond measurement,
Oh light who hides himself in a mind which is not interested,
Oh God who made my mind melt and stood there as my dear life,
Oh god who does not have happiness or hardships and who stands inside me.
Loading...
Oh friend to your devotees, Oh God who is everything as well as nothing,
Oh God who is a flame, Oh God who is darkness, Oh God who is never born,
Oh primeval one who has crossed the state of middle as well as end,
Oh Lord who as a father, attracted me and made me yours,
Oh God who can be known only by the very intelligent ones,
And their look is a rare one which is to be appreciated,
And their understanding you is a rare feeling.
Oh blessed Lord who never goes, comes or joins,
Oh Guard who protects me, Oh great light which is difficult to see,
Oh sweet water of grace, you are more than my father,
And stand before me as great light and an indescribable micro feeling,
Oh clarity, who comes in different forms of this changing world,
Oh complete understanding due to that clarity,
Oh nectar of feeling which flows in my thoughts,
Oh God who owns me, Oh Sir, I am not able to,
Lie tied up in this body made of flesh and sensations,
Oh Lord, Oh Shiva, Like this they praised,
And left this untrue body and got the true body(Lord Shiva)
Oh God who is capable of destroying this body,
Which is the place where the deceiving five senses reside,
And which has been prevented from coming again .
Oh Lord who dances even in mid night when all world sleeps,
Oh Lord who dances in Chidambaram who is from the southern Pandya kingdom.
Oh lord who cuts of this painful life of birth,
Those who called you God , who cannot be understood, as “ oh god”
And understand this song which was sung below your feet,
Would go to the wealthy land of Shiva’s city,
And would remain below the feet of Lord Shiva,
Being prayed and worshipped by many
Tiruchittrambalam
