Greatness of holy feet of Lord Shiva

 *Thiruvasagam -- The Humming bee -- Song 1*

(The following verses are taken from G.U Pope's English translation of Thiruvasagam)

The King that crowns the flower; Purandaran ; the Lady blest, in beauty clothed,

That sits on learned tongues ; and Naranan ; 

the fourfold mystic Védic Scroll,

The Splendours, Riders in majesty ;—with all the heavenly ones too, know Him not :

Go to His roseate foot who mounts the Bull ; AND BREATHE His PRAISE, THOU HUMMING-BEE

========================

*Explanation*

Manickavasagar instructs a humming bee to go to the holy feet of Lord Shiva which is not known by 

Lord Brahma, 

Lord Vishnu, 

Goddess Saraswathi, 

Lord Rudra, 

Four Vedas, 

Heavenly beings

and sing his glory.

---------------------------

By this, Manickavasagar tells about the *greatness of the holy feet* of Lord Shiva.
