Sunday 11th January 2026 (27th Verse ) (Verse 4 of 5 Singing the Lord’s Praise)

Koodarai vellum seer Govinda ! Undrannai

Govinda, who vanquishes those who do not join, to you

Paadi parai kondu yaam perum sammanam

Singing and receiving the gifts from you

Naadu pugazhum parisinaal nandraga

With these gifts that are praised by all in the land nicely

Soodagame tholvalaiye thode sevippoove

Garlands, ear rings, and other ornaments

Padagame yendranaiya palkalanum yaam anivom

We will wear all these when given by you

Aadai yuduppom adhan pinne paar soru

We will wear the garments and then eat Milk rice

Mooda neiy peydhu muzhankai vazhivara

With ghee dripping till our forearm

Koodiyirundhu kulirndhelor empavai

will join together and be divinely happy my girls

Sri Andal has in the early verses described the rigors of the Nonbu as not decorating themselves and not eating ghee and other delicacies to enable focus on the Lord. Now that She is in front of the Lord, she addresses the Lord as one who wins over those who are not willing to join Him or vanquishes those who are not following the righteous path and sings, we are singing your praise and seek from your hands gifts that the nation will be enamored of. We seek from Your hands lovely garlands and ear rings and many other ornaments ;and then lovely garments. We will adorn ourselves when these are given by your hands or you adorn us yourselves. Our beautification is for you to see and bless. And after adorning ourselves we will eat paal soru ie rice cooked in milk and ghee as your prasadam and the delicacy will be so full of ghee that the ghee will flow down from our hands to our elbow as we eat. And being in unison with you, in your company, partaking of the gifts and the food that you give us, we remain together and happy and blissful.
