🕉️ Manthiramavathu Neeru – Sacred Ash Thevaram Lyrics in English
A famous contest arose between the Jains and Sambandar: the Jains agreed to treat one half of the king's body, while the saint would treat the other half using sacred ash. While the Jain methods failed, Sambandar applied chanting the "Manthiramavathu Neeru" verses. Miraculously, the half treated with the sacred ash was not only healed of the fever but also became straight again, shedding its hunch.
Mukthi tharuvadhu nīru munivar anivadhu nīru Sathiyam aavadhu nīru thakkōr pugazhvadhu nīru Bhakthi tharuvadhu nīru parava iniyadhu nīru Siddhi tharuvadhu nīru thiruvāla vāyān thirunīrē.
