Indra, Shiva and Brahmma stay hidden with flowers wishing to have a darshan of the Lord who lives in Thiruvellarai, a place where the buildings touch the moon and a place full of learned men. We pray before you to come and protect us from evil forces.

Like how a calf shouts calling for her mother, I am here at my full voice shouting for you and your darshan. Instead of being at the cross roads at dusk, please answer my prayers O , Lord of Thiru Vellarai and come to me and protect me from evil forces
