The victor of even those
That surrender not to you
Oh ‘ Kanna’
One of such virtue
In your praise that we sing
We shall receive the gift
That freedom alone shall bring
This gift worthy of praise shall be
By one and all who on this land has a feet.
Bedeck ourselves shall we
With jewels
Offered by You and the one
With who You shall be
The bracelet around our wrist
The armlets surrounding our shoulders
The jewels that adorn our ear
The flower that pops out atop from where we hear
The anklet that tingles around the feet
And all such embellishments as these
Wear shall we
The garments that touched your being
Feed ourselves will we
Some porridge of rice in even measures of milk and ghee
And in all this
The gift of tender union shall we receive.
