Sivapuraanam part 2,3 &4



Victory to the foot of the King, who soothed my soul's unrest and made me His !
Victory to the jewelled foot of Pijjagan, who severs continuity of birth !
Victory to the flower-foot of Him Who is far from those without !
Victory to the anklets of the King, rejoicing 'mid those that fold adoring hands !
Victory to the anklets of the glorious One, who uplifts those that bow the head !

Praise to the foot of ICan ! Praise to my Father's foot !
Praise to the foot of the Teacher ! Praise to Civan's roseate foot !
Praise to the foot of the Stainless, who in love stood near !
Praise to the foot of the King, who cuts off delusive birth !
Praise to the foot of glorious Perun-turrai's God !
Praise to the Mount, in grace affording pleasures that cloy not !

Because He, Civan, within my thought abides,
By His grace alone, bowing before His feet,
With joyous thought, Civan's 'Ways of Old' I'll tell,
That thus my former 'deeds' may wholly pass.
I came, attained the grace the 'Brow-eyed' showed,
Adored the beauteous foot by thought unreached.
