Meaning of Thevaram


The Lady of the hills (pArvatI), whose beautiful walk is like that of  
the female elephant and that of the swan - in the joy of her company  
our Lord resides; As the army of budhas recite music, Dances; He is the  
One having the river in the vast long matted hair; Sings the vedas and  
the music of seven notes; dharumapuram, where the tides of the deep sea  
after splashing the bubbles throughout the shore retreats drooping off,  
where in the enchanting fields of blooming punnai the bees, arrested in  
the flower, scream continuously and the cuckoos try their singing -  
such a wonderful place is the abode of the Lord !! 
 
Notes


1. nIlakaNTa yAzppANar (/devotees/the-history-of-thirunilakanda-yazpanar) was the  
musician who accompanied sambandhar and played his songs wherever they  
went. As they reached dhrumapuram, a place of many relatives of  
yAzppANar, they flocked him and started saying that sambandhar's hymns  
became famous only because of yAzpANars play on yAz. The true devotee  
yAzppANar was shocked, but the young saint was unruffled. He sang this  
song which yAzppANar could not fit in his yAz. Disappointed by the  
inability to serve, that sincere devotee was about to break the yAz.  
The prodigy who excelled in thamiz, stopped him saying it was not his  
fault but the music was beyond the scope of that particular instrument  
and requested him to continue his service. yAzppANar's relatives  
understood their foolishness and praised those two marvelous devotees.  
Since the it broke the limits of the yAz, this song is titled yAzmUri. 
2. In this padhikam the description of the picturesque scene of  
dharumapuram is heart stealing. 
3. piDi - female elephant; punal - water (river)
