"In pleasures false I plunged, and sank deep down,- each day of earthly prosperous joy,

I thought it true, and thus enslaved I lay;

in grace revealed, He made me His !
Call Him 'my Teacher' 'precious Life', 'great Lord, of Tillai's sacred temple-court;

And seek those selfsame roseate flowery Feet,  

TO BREATHE HIS PRAISE, THOU HUMMING-BEE ! "  

 - Manickavasagar, Thiruvasagam
