A prayer
“Nenja-k kanakallum neguzhnduruga, Thanja-th arul shanmuganuk(ku) iyal ser, Senjor punai maalai sirandhidave, Panja kara(v) aanai padham panivom”
— Kandhar Anubhuthi
To melt the hardest heart of rock, diamond, To the divine grace of the six faced one, To let the glorious words entwine us a poetic garland, To the feet of the five handed, elephant god, I bow down
