If You leave out, unagingly the complete blame will be on You ! Oh the Divine with roaring fire on the hand ! Oh chivakkozundhu of thiruchchaththimuRRam ! Notes: 1. This is the song in which appar requests (threatens !) God to put Its covetous Feet on his head. God called him to thirun^allUr and fulfilled his plead there. 2. Doesn't this sound a better idea ? If the Lord's Feet is embossed on the head, how can the death, having already had enough for once, thrash one down, however ferocious it be ?! Isn't it better to have the Floral Feet of Lord shiva than that of the ferocious death ?
