O Guru supreme, O Lord Arumuga (six-faced Murugan), O Saravana Bhava!
O Saravana Bhava, O Arumuga Guru supreme!
O Saravana Bhava, O Arumuga Guru supreme! — By chanting your sacred name…
May you bless those devotees whose hearts melt in Tamil devotion;
remove the cycle of birth and death; grant them the state of Shiva-consciousness;
cure the diseases and troubles that afflict us, and make our lives peaceful and joyful.
O compassionate one whose eyes shower grace,
the unique First Cause; the younger one who is accompanied by the elephant-faced Lord (Ganesha);
the one who grants the nectar-like words of poetry — bless your devotees so that their lives may flourish.
In this ocean-like world, where living beings suffer through many hardships,
remove our confusion, conflicts, and suffering;
one day grant us the fortune of attaining the shade of your sacred feet.
O wielder of the beautiful Vel (spear),
you are the son blessed by the Lord who burnt the three cities (Lord Shiva);
you dwell gloriously in Thanikai and on the holy Shiva mountain,
and you move upon the northern mountains as well.
O great life of divine grace,
your devotees praise you every day;
you reside in their hearts and shine in both forms of worldly prosperity and spiritual wealth;
you come like the Sun and remove the darkness and impurities of ignorance.
O Muruga,
you are the beloved nephew of the great Lord Vishnu, the one who rests upon the serpent couch;
you are wondrous beyond measure;
you are the pure and immaculate one blessed by Parvati (Uma), the daughter of the Himalayas.
O great Lord,
when your beautiful peacock shines and moves at the centre of the six sacred battle camps (Arupadai Veedu),
with splendour that makes the lower worlds tremble with awe,
you appear with the majestic cry of “Hara Hara Shiva Shiva.”
In essence:
This hymn is a prayer to Lord Murugan seeking his grace to remove suffering, ignorance, disease, and the endless cycle of birth and death, and to grant devotion, wisdom, peace, and the ultimate refuge at his divine feet.
