(Pamban Swamigal was a great saivite saint belonging to Rameswaram and lived during the later half of 19th century. He was a great Tamil scholar and a great devotee of Lord Subrahmanya. He has written several works in praise of God. Shamuga kavasam (The armour of the six faced lord) written by him is perhaps the most popular. I have consulted the translation of this great work given in the http://www.skandagurunatha.org during my translation to understand the prayer, I express my grateful acknowledgement to this web site.)
