Meaning

Even when a soul brings him no benefit and is not well-disposed, he sets its conduct right and takes it into his service — such is the Nambi of Kurukur, ringed by groves where cuckoos linger and sing. Speaking to him directly, Madhurakavi says: all my striving is only to grow in love for your adorned feet.
