Don't waste time in reaching the holy feet of Lord Shiva

 Thiruvasagam -- The Pilgrim Song -- Song 5:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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


Free ye your souls from pains of wrath and lust; henceforth the time shall not be long drawn out ! 

Beneath our Master’s feet with glad acclaim that we in one may go, in one combine ! 

Even we in Civan’s town shall refuge find, whose flow’r-wreath’d gates to us shall not be clos’d! 

There enter’d we in ecstasy shall sing the glories only of Bhuyangan-king.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Explanation 

==========

There is no more time for us to waste. So before the gates of Sivaloka (abode of Lord Shiva) closes, let us free ourselves from the wrath and lust. Prepare yourself to reach the holy feet of Lord Shiva. Let us all praise the glories of Lord who is wearing a snake around his neck and who is ruling all of us. By this, we can reach the abode of Lord Shiva. 


In the above song, Manickavasagar tells us not to waste any more time in reaching the holy feet of Lord Shiva.
