28. Vaazhaappaththu “Oh partner of Her whose Feet are softer than cotton! Behold that I have none other than You to cling to. Oh You who have made me outright Your own! Oh King of Civapuram! Oh Civam abiding in Thirupperunt hurai! I, a cur, am afraid. Behold that I, a perfidious one who, due to delusion forgot the grace which You making me Your own bestowed, will not live here like this. Show me the grace of saying, “Come”. (28:6) “Oh Light which makes the Sun shine! Behold that I have none but Your Feet to cling to Oh King of sacred and supremely beautiful Civauram: Oh Civan abiding in Thirupperummthurai! I due to delusion do now know the pathway to throw and melt -in my mind looking upon your Mercy and to live merged in You. Behold that I will not live in this world. Show me the grace of saying “Come” (28.7) “Oh Partner of Her whose fingers caress the ball! Behold that I have none but you to cling to. Oh You Who resemble ruddy flame! Oh King of Civapuram! Oh Civan abiding in Thirupperunthurai! Oh endless and rare Ambrosia! Oh rare great One Who came and made me Your own that I may be saved! Behold that I will not live like this. Show me the grace of saying, “Come”. (28:8) E31
