Meanings Courtesy: Ravi Shankar: (http://rasikas.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=9277)

Even as I utter (“enrAl”) the words 'murugA, murugA' will your (“unran”) heart (“uLLam”) not melt (“urugAdO”)? And, even as I welcome you and request your presence (“varuvAi varuvAi enrAl”), will you not come (“vArAyO”) to me with pleasure/delight/care (“parivODu”)?

Even if perchance (“orukAl”) I have been negligent (“kuRai SeidAlum”) in my duties toward you, Oh Lord who has conquered his senses (“kandA”), who showers (“tandiDum”) grace (“aruLE”) endlessly, isn't is enough if I (“nAn”) were to merely think (“ninaindAlum”) of your (“un”) feet (“pAdam”) and call out your name day (“pagalum”) and night (“allum”) to be saved?

Oh handsome (“azhagA”) embodiment (“vaDivam koNDa”) of love (“anbE”)! My Lord did you (“nI”) despise (“veruttAyO”) me for the innumerable sins/mistakes (“pizhiagaL”) that I (“nAn”) may have unknowingly (“ariyAdu”) committed (“Seida”) and become irritated/angry (“sinandAyO”) with me? Oh Lord (“dEvanE”) of lords (“dEvAdi”), residing (“vAzhum”) in the mighty (“mA”) town (“nagar”) of tiruccendUr (“sendil”), I humbly request that you patiently tolerate (“poruttE”) my (“en”) inadequacies/deficiencies (“kuraiyellAm”) and shower your grace (“aruL SeivAi”) on me, for I am but a small and destitute individual (“SiriyEn”)!
