Making Saturn, Rahu, Kethu, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, moon and sun insideme,Making all the twelve rasis stand equally, after processing the snow like twentyseven stars,And cutting the eleven rays that shine behind and after shouting at many,And after talking before me like fruit and after pulverizing the bad oneswishing bad things,You saved the volunteer of your volunteers and made him saluted by yourvolunteers,And so it is your job to rule over Vanavai Munichamy who has a sweetdisposition.
