Pleading with the hero.
Wordplay (maṭakku) — āciriyaviruttam of eight metrical feet.
The garland embracing your chest is indeed red konṟai;
the carp-eyed maid who clings to desire has red lips too!
When spoken of with wonder, that [flower] is of a golden hue;
the flash of our [maid's] complexion is golden-hued too!
Without gaining your chest, is it fitting that she should wither in exhaustion?
Behold with an eye of grace, O Great One of Aruṇagiri, O Spotless One!
O handsome Lord celebrated in the fine spring festival!
O Giver of liberation upon being remembered! O Medicine upon the Mountain!
