Tamil Transliteration

Padhaththae urughi ninn paadhaththilae manam pattri undran
Idhaththae ozhugha adimai kondaai inii yaan oruvar
Madhaththae madhi mayangaen avar poana vazhiyum sellaen
Mudhath thaevar moovarum yaavarum poatrum mughiz naghaiyae

Translation

Abhirami! Wielding a pleasing smile
Worshipped by the elite three supreme,
And the rest of heaven dwellers! You engrossed me
In contemplating on Thy graceful feet ever adhering,
Ever pining for you seeking Thy wisdom
That directs me all along, thus making me
Your slave forever, incapacitating me
From following alien ideologies and guidelines!

Simple Meaning

Abhirami! You don a pleasing smile. The three supreme Gods Brahma, Vishnu and Siva along with the rest of the heaven dwellers worship you. I am always at your feet pining all the time seeking your wisdom that guides me ever.in that way you have made me you slave. Hence I shall not follow any other ideology or methods of enlightenment.

Commentary
Nothing can be impressed on smooth glass, but when the surface is coated with proper chemicals, pictures can be impressed upon it, as in photography. In the same way, on the human heart coated with the chemicals of Bhakthi, the image of Divinity can be impressed.
Unless one screens the eyes of unbroken horses, they will not move a single step.
Single-minded Devotion One way to approach God, according to traditional Hinduism, is by practicing any one of five dualistic attitudes, or modes.
These attitudes, or modes, are manifested in the relationship
between the devotee and God, and they are:
1) Santa Bhava
The peace and stillness felt in the presence of God

2) Dasya Bhava
The attitude of a servant towards his Master

3) Sakhya Bhava
The attitude of a friend towards a Friend

4) Vatsalya Bhava
The attitude of a parent towards a Child

5) Madhura Bhava
The attitude of a lover towards the Beloved.
The idea behind this classification is to help the spiritual aspirant intensify his relationship with God according to his own inner nature. This is a natural path to God-realization.
The Blessed Lord said:
Through single-minded devotion, however,
I can be seen in this form (with four arms) ,
known in essence and entered into, O Arjuna.
-The Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11, verse 54.

So we can make out the mindset of Abhirami Bhattar and the ultimate grace he got from Abhirami
