இடும்பன் பழனி தனிலே இருந்த குமரேசா (idumban pazhanithani lEyi rundha kumarEsA) : and also at Pazhani Hill which was brought by Idumban, Oh Lord KumaresA!
Idumban was one of the very few asuran survivors of the suraasuran war between Murugan's forces and those of Surapadman. After surviving the war he had repented and became a devotee of Lord Murugan. Sage Agastya wanted to take two hills — Sivagiri and Saktigiri — to his abode in the South and commissioned his asuran disciple Idumban to carry them. Idumban bore the hills slung across his shoulders in the form of a kavadi, one on each side. When he reached Palani and felt fatigued, he placed the kavadi down to take rest. After the rest, he found that he could not lift the hills. Upon the hilltop, Idumban spotted the little boy Murugan who had come to the hills after His father had given away the coveted mango to His elder brother Vinayaka. The boy refused to move and a fierce battle ensued between the two. Idumban was slain but was later restored to life.
