குனித்த புருவமுங் கொவ்வைச்செவ் வாயிற் குமிண்சிரிப்பும்
பனித்த சடையும் பவளம்போல் மேனியிற் பால்வெண்ணீறும்
இனித்த முடைய எடுத்தபொற் பாதமுங் காணப்பெற்றால்
மனித்தப் பிறவியும் வேண்டுவதே இந்த மாநிலத்தே. 4.81.4

Meaning of Thevaram
The bent brows, bubbling smile in pomegranate-red lips,
wet matted hair, milky-white ash on the coral like body,
enchanting raised foot, if got to see these, the
humane birth is also desirable in this great land !
Notes
1. The word bliss attained at liberation has two
parts. One it should be a state of happiness and
at the same time it has to be permanent - eternal.
If that bliss is got here itself, just by involving
into the glorious form of the Dancing Lord, why to
fear about rebirth ? Isn't eternal bliss right here ?
The beauty of God is not something that fades off
with time. He dances beyond time. So the birth in
which one is able to rejoice the sight of God is not
regrettable but it is indeed respectable !
2. A great song in the words of very matured love
for the Supreme ! This portrays us the quality of
the great saint of our lovely Lord shiva, portrayed
in periya purANam as,
"kUDum anbinil kumbidalE anRi
