What is the poem uttered by the saint in Dasavatharam?
In the Tamil movie Dasavatharam (The Ten Avatars), while 12th century scene starts, there is a saint who utters some Tamil poem. I heard it many times, but even can't figure out the starting word. What poem is that? You can find the scene here.

First one is from Tamil. He speaks in the literary form asking all to pray Lord Shiva.
