ஞானபண்டிதா முருகா பாலகுமாரனே
உருகி வேண்டினோம் முருகா உந்தன் அருள் கொடு

வேலெடுத்தவன் முருகன் வினையறுப்பவன்
காப்பவர் கவலைகளை எடுப்பவன்

தாயிருக்கையில் பிள்ளை தவறி விழுமோ
பால் கொடுத்தவன் முருகா பாசம் கேட்கிறான்
பாலகா குகா மடியில் சேர்க்கப்பார்க்கிறேன்
அன்பு சிவன் அவன் முருகா கோபம் கொள்கிறான்
நீலகண்டனின் மகனே நிழலில் சேரவா

பிறைகள் இல்லையேல் முருகா நிலமும் ஏதடா
குறைகள் உள்ளது மனிதா உறவுதானடா
நிறைந்து வழியும் என் நெஞ்சம் முழுதும் நீயடா
நீ என் வாழ்வினை நிலையாய் ஒன்று சேரடா
காற்று மண்டலம் கந்தன் கான மண்டபம்
ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளடா என் தாய் இளையவள் தவம்
காற்று வெள்ளமாய் உந்தன் காலில் விழுகிறேன்
பற்றும் தெய்வமே புனிதா புரிந்துகொள்ளடா
Without crescent moons, Muruga, what worth has the earth?
Human relationships inherently possess flaws, my dear.
Fill my heart completely, for you reside in all of it.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song is a deeply emotional devotional prayer addressed to Lord Murugan (also called Balakumaran, Kandhan, and Guha). The singer pours out her heart, seeking divine intervention, guidance, and peace during a time of emotional turmoil and broken human relationships. Through poignant maternal and spiritual imagery, she highlights that just as a mother would never allow her child to fall, Lord Murugan will not let his devotees suffer endlessly. She surrenders completely at the feet of the Lord, asking Him to mend her fragmented life and clear the darkness with his divine wisdom and grace.
