Nekkurugi


Nekkurugi

By
Papanasam Shivan

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander

Ragam AAbhogi
Thalam  Adhi

Pallavi
Nekkurgi  unnaipaniya  kal,
Nenjam   yenakkalulvai , Muruga

Anupallavi
Thikku verillai dheena saranya,
Thevar munivar pani, Subrahmanya

Charanam
Mukkannan  umai eendra  magane,
Shanmukhane , malon  marugane ,
Sikkal   Singarvela   Guhane  ,
Valli DEivanai  manavala  unnai  ninainthu

English meaning

Pallavi
Oh Muruga   give   me a heart,
That would make me bow down to you  with a melted heart.

Anupallavi
I don’t have any other help, oh God who helps   those in trouble,
Oh Subrahmanya who is   saluted  by devas  and sages.

Charanam
Oh Son born to the three eyed Shiva  and Parvathi,
Oh Shanumukha , Oh nephew   of Lord   Vishnu  ,
Oh Singaravela  of Sikkal , Oh Guha,
Oh consort of  Valli  and DEvasena , thinking about you.

  1. I think the Pallavi translates to something different from what you have indicated.. My take is as follows:

    Nekkurugi Unaip paniya kal
    nenjan enakkarulvai, Muruga

    "Oh Muruga, give me, the one with a heart of stone -- who doesn't devoutly and completely bow to you, deliverance"
