Translation

Life and death forming the agitators
Churning my life in vain lest my soul turn rag!
Heh Abhirami! The beautiful lady offering feet
With vermillion on the forehead accommodating a throng of
The Creator Brahma on the beautiful lotus,
The Guardian Vishnu and the crescent-donning Destroyer of evils Siva
Making an ensemble,
Elevate me to higher pedestal with your Grace!

Simple Meaning

Abhirami! Brahma seated on the lotus, the crescent donning Siva and Vishnu praise your feet; you have a face donning vermillion; please protect my soul from getting churned and torn between birth, life and death like curd is churned.

Commentary

When there is hurricane kind of wind people are carried away and strewn everywhere. Wise people catch hold of fixed structures like pillars or big trees. But these structures also cannot be claimed as permanent. They get uprooted sooner or later.
But if we want to get rid of the turmoil of birth, life and death then we have the fixed thing, the divine feet of my Mother Abhirami.
