Thirupavai--19

Kuthu villakku yeriya kottukal katilmel
methendru panjasayanathin meleri
kothalar ponguzhal nappinai kongaimel
vaithu kidandha malarmarbha,vaithiravai
maithadanga kanninai ,nee un manalanai
yethanai podhum thuyilyezha votati kaan
yethanai yelum pirrivatrkilayal
thathuvam andru thagave lorembavai

meaning
One who is sleeping in the embrace of Radha who has decked her hair with bunches of flowers,
over a soft mattress spread over a cot which is supported by ivory legs in a room lit by tall oil lamps,
one who has  broad chest ! open your mouth and utter few words!

Radha! You have eyes that are darkened by kajal,
you are not waking up your wedded husband though the sun is climbing higher in the sky,
You are unable to bear the pangs of separation even for a few seconds!
This selfishness does not behove your true merciful self.
