3.44

We are intoxicated ones who praise the flower-feet of the Lord of Aruṇai,
who dwells within himself and whom the Vedas extol!
Is the cakra-pūjā easy for those who are bound by karma? Alas, it is rare!
Due to fate, I shall tell how he is devoid of understanding:
While the palmyra was there, and the tall hemp was there, in vain
he slept on a green leaf; while the palm toddy, clear as a scorpion,
was there, he slept upon a serpent; leaving the divine ocean
that is wine, he sank upon the milk ocean!
