I will leave the padartha translation up to the pros. I'm dancing this Thillana on Saturday.. !

A long caraNam indeed:
caraNa sAhityam
kaNNA maNi vaNNA kamala kaNNA unnai nAn dinam paNindEn (x 4)
kaNamum pozhudum unai nAn maravEnE guruvAyUrappA (x 2)
kaNNAra kaNDu uLLam magizhndu un pugazh pADinEn (x 4)
kArmugil vaNNA .............
kaNNAra kaNDu uLLam magizhndu un pugazh pADinEn
kArmugil vaNNA varuvAi viraivAi iruvAi mozhivAi
kaNNAra kaNDu uLLam magizhndu un pugazh pADinEn
kArmugil vaNNA varuvAi viraivAi iruvAi mozhivAi

Oh emerald (maNi) hued (vaNNA) krishNA (kaNNA) with lotus (kamala)-like eyes (kaNNA)! I (nAn) have worshipped (paNindEn) you (unai) daily (dinam). Oh lord (appA) of guruvAyUr! I (nAn) will not forget (maravEnE) you (unai) for even a second (kaNamum pozhudum). I have sung (pADinEn) your (un) praises (pugazh) after having gazed (kaNDu) upon you to my heart's/eye's content (kaNNAra) and filling my heart (uLlam) with joy (magizhndu). Oh dark/black (kAr) cloud (mugil) hued (vaNNA) Lord! Please make haste (viraivAi) and come/appear (varuvAi) before me and speak (mozhivAi) to me [1] at the time of my end (iruvAi).

[1] If iruvAi is interpretted as 'time of the end', this phrase would indicate that the composer is asking the lord for death-bed advice - hopefully, people more knowledgable than I am can help with this

[Pratyaksham Bala]

By any chance will it be 'tiruvAi' mozhivAi?

[radhikashetty]

Thank you so much, Ravi.

[rshankar]

By any chance will it be 'tiruvAi' mozhivAi?

Could very well be. I would need to listen to it to be sure.
