9. TOOMANAI MAADATTHU

MEANING:
Oh uncle's daughter, sleeping on a bed in a wonderfully ornamented hall with lamps and incense burning all around, get up and open the latches of your ornate door.Oh Aunty, please wake up your daughter, who is sleeping as if she is dumb and deaf and like a spell that has been placed on her to continue sleeping. Cast off your sleep and shall recite the many names of our Lord (Maadhavan) who is residing in Vaikunda (heaven)
