14.1
I have fallen deeply in love with the Lord of Tirikūṭa, / who is true to the true; listen to that news, my friend! / His red matted locks, the beauty of the sacred koṉṟai garland, / and the battle-axe in His hand never leave my eyes.
14.2
Seeing the divine Shoot wearing the tender shoot of the Gaṅgā, / I turned even the tender cool moon into a shoot of fire! / Seeing Him who wears the conch earring in the street of conches, / the conch bangles upon both red hands slipped off, and I grew distraught!
14.3
Seeing Him who adorns His head with the fragrant tender crescent moon, / I suffered as the wasp of the gentle southern breeze stung me day by day! / I went before Kuṟṟālanāthar, whose bow is the mountain; / wielding his victorious bow, Madan fought softly and relentlessly.
14.4
Seeing the Lord upon the great royal street of Nannakar, / seeing the deer in His hand, I let my garment slip loose! / Seeing Him who has a speck of blackness upon His red body, / alas, mother, my whole body has now darkened completely!
14.5
Seeing Him who wears the tiger skin on the silver bull mount, / I saw the moon lodged in my heart as if it were the sun! / Seeing Him who has not the least food or sleep, / I too have abandoned glorious food and sleep!

The female companion derides Vasantavalli
Viruttam
O golden vine, come like an ornament to the maiden Earth! / O foremost among women, Vasantavalli! / What shall I say to the foolishness you spoke? / Longing for the Woman of the Mountain, / upon Him who rides a grey bull along the conch-filled street— / is it for Him, lady, that you have fallen in love?
