Short Meaning –

Anda:l is waking up a girl who is sleeping in the devotion of Lord Krishna and enjoying the songs of His glories sung by Anda:l and the group from inside. “In the Eastern Horizon of the sky, the dawn has begun, cattle have spread on the plains for their first feed. Though children are going(to Lord Krishna ), as going itself is their purpose, we have stopped them and we all came to take you too along with us! We know that You are much fond of this Vratham ! O ‘ Little girl, wake up. Let us go to our Lord Krishna who killed the great wrestlers Chanura and Mushtika. Come ! we shall take from Him, the instruments required for our Vratham. If we go to Him before He arrives to our place, then He with the feeling of indebtedness , with lot of eagerness and Love towards us, will bless us with all our wishes.

Jai Srimannarayana !
