Upadēśa Undiyār verse 8, 9 and 13

Śrī Aruṇācala Akṣaramaṇamālai verse 13:
ஓங்கா ரப்பொரு ளொப்புயர் வில்லோ
யுனையா ரறிவா ரருணாசலா
ōṅkā rapporu ḷoppuyar villō
yuṉaiyā raṟivā raruṇācalā
பதச்சேதம்: ஓங்கார பொருள், ஒப்பு உயர்வு இல்லோய், உனை யார் அறிவார் அருணாசலா?
Padacchēdam (word-separation): ōṅkāra poruḷ, oppu uyarvu illōy, uṉai yār aṟivār aruṇācalā?
English translation: Arunachala, import of Ōṁkāra, you who are without equal or superior, who can know you?
Explanatory paraphrase: Arunachala, import [meaning or substance] of Ōṁkāra [the syllable Ōm], you who are without equal [or anything similar] or superior, who can know you [as you are]?
Bhagavad Gītā Sāram verse 27
