Drinking the milk the villagers gave you,
you nurtured your life.
Before the taste of that milk could even fade,
you forgot all gratitude.

Into the heart of his tender young child,
you struck with poison!

By Lord Shankara, who once sang the three Tamil arts
at the ancient Sangam gathering, I swear!
By the refined Tamil that graced the tongues
of the Sangam poets, I swear!
By Goddess Shankari, adorned with
auspicious turmeric and kumkum, I swear!
O serpent worn by the Lord who shares half His body with His consort,
I swear upon you!
I swear upon the Lord!
I swear upon His sacred feet!
I swear upon the holy scriptures!
I swear upon my sacred tongue!
I swear upon the music, I swear upon the word!
I swear upon myself, I swear upon you...
