All those    whom he touches with his hand    will die,

And when  he who wanted to examine it , came to touch Lord Shiva himself,

He ran fast and   when he hid himself   in the Shiva Linga fruit   and was suffering,

2.            Aadi seshan meethil palli kondu varum haran padum thuyaram arinthutaney

Jyothi valar mohini ppen vadivam aaki vanthavanai mayakki kaama choothinaal ventru

Avan kayyinaal avan thalai thoda sheyya avanum udaney bodham attru uyir maandu pokavey

Haranum a cheithi arinthavar olintha

When he who was lying on Aadhi sesha came to know of   the problem of Lord Shiva,

He took the form of the Shining Mohini ,  attracted him and with passionate deceit   deceived him,

And made him touch his own head  and when he lost his senses and lost his soul,

Lord Shiva who came    to know of this news,

3.            Idam arinthavutan velyey vanthu thannai kaatha vidham arinthu

Avvuruvayey rishabha vaahananum thaan paarkka ichai kondu vishnuvai praarthikka

Thadayintri thaamara kkannanum than maaya vadivai eduthaar kandu

Utaney haran mohathaal than nilamai thappi avvadivazhagai kandu athishayithu

As soon as he knew the place of hiding  , he came out and when he knew the method by which he was saved,

That one who rides on the bull   wanted to see that form and prayed to Lord Vishnu,

And without any problem   when the lotus eyed one  , took that form of illusion again,

And immediately Lord Shiva   due to great passion  lost his balance   and seeing the pretty one  wondered greatly 

4.            Eeshanaakilum antha adbutha pen meethil ichai kondu arikil vanthu

Kooshaatha kuvalaya kkannanaam appennuruvai nijamaana penn entrenni

Mosham poyi manmadhan chaapamai kondu mukkannanum angayey

Ammaaya mohini penn vadivazhagai anainthaar paravashar aakiyey

Though he was god  getting passionate    he came near    that wonderful lady  ,

Thinking that  the form of a lady of the lotus eyed Krishna   was a real lady,

Getting deceived  and being hit by the arrow of the god of love  ,

That three eyed one  getting passionate embraced  that  illusory beauty then and there.

 Oh dear    son who took birth   when Lord of Uma  joined    with Lord of Lakshmi,

Oh Lord of the gem   from whose feet saluted By Indra,   the anklets make a sound,

Oh Valorous Mani Kanda  Who played by catching big tigers and tigresses,

Oh Good lord of south Kulathoor  who grants grace and give whatever  they want to those  who believe in you.

Oh Dharma Sastha  who destroyed the pains of kali   age in this world  who is my support

Oh Valorous  one who does not have any comparison , Please agree to be God of our clan.

8.            Ethu kaan unnayey nambinorkku engumey bhaya varumaikal

Where is poverty and fear   to those who believed in you,

Please bless me to make  absoultuely   true  devotion to you as mine,

Oh Manikanda , give me a boon   that  in this world full of deceit  ,

I should   be devoid of any  worry   and I should be able to sing and serve you in Tamil.

With ear studs made of gems and pearls  . With good Thilaka   on your broad forehead  ,

The prettiness of your broad eye , With eyelids which defeat the  bow of the god of love,

With nose like Champa flower , With  smiling teeth and pearl like mouth ,

Which removes the sorrow of devotees and grants them divine joy,

10.          Ongum nava ratnamaya sarappalligal uthareeyma uyarntha thol valai kanganam

With   great looking navarathna pendants and upper cloth,

Highly placed  Shoulder bangles  , and armlets,

With a broad  and high chest   which shine due to pretty medals,

With bow and arrow carried to protect this world  .

With hands holding sword as well    as shield ,

With belt   and golden belt   which removes defeciencies,

I  saluted    ever legs which woe the tingling  anklets, Please  protect me.

11.          Ayyappan akaraadhippathikam ithai anputan anudinam padippavarkku

Poyyatta pooranai pushkalayutan sherum engal bhoothanaathaney saakshiyaam

To those who read with love    this  alphabetically arranged prayer on Ayyappa,

Without any doubt   their desires would be fulfilled  also their fear and diseases would go  .

And nobody would come near them to defeat them in their jobs ,

This is not a lie   for  Our Bhoothanatha with Poorna and Pushkala  is a witness  for this.
