In the seventh verse, of this song, Saint Campantar, mentions, the Lord's Mercy on all those aspiring for most auspicious wedding. கன்னியரோ டாடவர்கள் மாமணம் விரும்பிய அருமங்கலமிக மின்னியலும் நுண்ணிடை நன் மங்கையரி யற்றுபதி வேதிகுடியே Literal translation of the two lines would be : ''"The whole-hearted wishes of girls and boys, be most auspiciously fulfilled.
