Pelting stones *[1],
Striking with the bow on hand *[2],
Praising with words sweet *[3],
Adoring with tender leaves green -
Thus in ways diverse
Thy tribe of devotees reached redemption.
What shall I, bereft of love, do?
Thou, the Gem of Guru of triple eyes
That direct appeared
To those who hold to nonkilling
As penance true!
FootNotes:
[1] Sakya Nayanar, celebrated in Peria Puranam.
[2] Arjuna, who performed penance towards Siva recounted in Mahabharata.
[3] Manicavacagar in Tiruvacagam.
