God’s Names are numerous; And if any one of those Names, At least once a day, while sitting quiet at a place, And you reach the Supreme abode of Brahman.

ஞானப்பான - பூந்தானம்

Tamil Transliteration

எண்ணமற்ற திருநாமம் உள்ளதில்

ஒன்னு மாத்ரம் ஒரிக்கல் ஒரு தினம்

ஸ்வஸ்தன் ஆயிட்டு இருக்கும் போழெங்கிலும்

ஸ்வப்னத்தில் தான் அறியாதெ எங்கிலும்

மற்றொன்னாயி பரிஹஸிச்செங்கிலும்

மற்றொருத்தர்க்கு வேண்டியென்னாகிலும்

ஏது திக்கிலிருக்கிலும் தன்னுடே

நாவு கொண்டிது சொல்லி என்னாகிலும்

அதுமல்லொரு நேரம் ஒரு தினம்

செவி கொண்டிது கேட்டு என்னாகிலும்

ஜன்ம சாபல்யம் அப்போழே வன்னு போய்

ப்ரம்ம ஸாயுஜ்யம் கிட்டீடும் என்னேல்லோ

God's Names are numerous;

And if any one of those Names,

At least once a day, while sitting quiet at a place,

Or unawares in a dream while sleeping,

Or mocking as something else, or to satisfy some one else;

You utter with your tongue or just hear with your ears,

At that very moment, your life is fulfilled;

And you reach the Supreme abode of Brahman.
