Advaita Chintamani
Alavirantha nedungaalam thanai thaaney
ariyatha mayalathanaal pavathun paththil
thalarvurumor sivanmun sanana thaatrum
sarkaruma nidkaya thavaththin peraal
அளவிறந்த நெடுங்காலம் தன்னைத் தானே
அறியாத மயலதனால் பவத்துன் பத்தில்
தளர்வுறுமோர் சிவன்முன் சனனத் தாற்றும்
சற்கரும நிட்காய தவத்தின் பேறால்
