Simple translation
emperumAn is mercifully residing in thirukkaNNapuram which is having mansions with best, priceless gemstones and lightning-rod present on tall peak of those mansions which tear into the moon and clouds which are moving around in the sky. He killed the bulls which are having greenish eyes and huge form. He eliminated the decay of the moon which causes coolness and became joyful due to that. For such sarvESvaran, who is puNdarIkAksha and has great love, I lost my irremovable bangle.
