Meaning
The girls address the god of rain directly, telling him to hold nothing back. Let him dive into the sea, drink his fill, rise thundering with a body dark as the primal lord's own form, flash like the discus in Padmanabha's mighty hand, rumble like his conch, and pour down like arrows loosed from the Sarnga bow. Then the world will flourish, and they can bathe joyfully through Margazhi.
