Spgm 100 - Praises To Pandian Poem by Rajaram Ramachandran

"For saving the tears of a sad woman,
He gave up his life; we praise Pandian.
For this he reached a position higher.
May the Pandian's tribe live forever! "

PRAISES TO CHERAN

"All the kings of the Himalayas,
Cheran brought them to his knees.
O'er their heads he placed the stone.
May God's mercy on him be shown! "

PRASES TO CHOLAN

"Oh friends, sing about Cauvery
And its vast beautiful territory.
Oh Goddess of Chastity,
Let us sing on Pugar's beauty."

SING ABOUT PUGAR

"The sea on four sides as a fence,
Well secured was Pugar's defence.
Like Lord Indra in the Heaven,
Well strong was King Cholan."

"He destroyed three hanging castles.
So strong were his muscles.
About his valor we shall sing.
About Pugar we shall sing."

LONG LIVE PANDIAN

"With the golden garland
And the shinning diamond.
Oh our beautiful lady
Flower balls let us play"

"Let Pandian who died,
Be blessed, be blessed
Oh our beautiful lady
Flower balls let us play."

"Like lightning down came
This lady here to roam.
He'll be blessed, we pray
While flower balls we play."

"He came, but not here.
He went, but not there.
Let him be blessed, we pray.
Flower balls let us all play."

PRAISES TO CHERAN

"On the beautiful swing
Let us play and sing
On the Cheran's name,
Who was popular and fame."

"In the five and hundred wars
Limitless food gave Cheran.
Let us play and sing
While we all swing."

"The land of Greece,
From the Mountain Himalayas,
Upto the Kumari Southern
All were conquered by Cheran."

"The people of these lands,
They were in his hands,
Which guarded and fed,
While these countries he led."

"Let us now glorify Cheran
And till our hips weaken
Let us play the swing,
While we happily sing."

A CREEPER SONG

(ABOUT CHOLAN)

Under a tree shade, the Pugar girls
Pounded the fresh pearls,
With the sticks of sugarcane,
While singing about Cheran.

His strong and broad shoulders,
His chariot with sturdy wheels
His flag colorful and victorious,
All spoke of his days glorious.

(ABOUT PANDIAN)

In their courtyard, the Madurai girls
With a stick made of corals,
They pounded pearls as they sang
On Pandian and his fish flag.

(ABOUT CHERAN)

In big mortar, the Vanchi girls,
With elephant ivory pestles,
Pounded the beautiful pearls
Singing on Cheran's glories.

SHE BLESSED

The rulers Cholan and Pandian,
And the best archer Cheran,
They don't worship here.
So, blessing on them was rare.

She appeared as a light
She told, she was right
In blessing only King Cheran
For his long life and fortune.

(Note: This temple was at the source
of Vaigai River and at Tiruchenkunru.
It was beyond the border of Pandian
Kingdom and situated in the Mountain
Region of Cheran's Kingdom)
