Hindi Translationसारावन तू ही, वन के सबदेवतरु तू ही,
पेडपौधों में घूमनेवाले सारे खगमृग तू ही,
चेन्नमलिकार्जुना,
सर्वभरित होने पर भी मुझे क्यों मुँह नहीं दिखाता ?
Translated by: Eswara Sharma M and Govindarao B N
English Translation You are the forest
you are all the great trees
in the forest
you are bird and beast
playing in and out
of all the trees
O lord white as jasmine
filling and filled by all
why don't you
show me your face?
Translated by: A K Ramanujan Book Name: Speaking Of Siva Publisher: Penguin Books ----------------------------------
The entire wood art Thou !
The sacred trees within the wood art Thou !
The birds and beasts that sport
Among the trees, art Thou !
O Cenna Mallikarjuna,
When Thou pervadest everything.
Why dost not show Thyself to me ?
Translated by: Dr. Sarojini Shintri
Tamil Translationவனமெலாம் நீயே, வனத்திலுள்ள தெய்வீகமரங்களும் நீயே,
மரத்திலாடும் காண்டாமிருகமும் நீயே
சன்னமல்லிகார்ச்சுனனே, எங்கும் நிறைந்த நீ
எனக்கு ஏன் முகத்தைக் காட்டவில்லை?
Translated by: Smt. Kalyani Venkataraman, Chennai
