Cameo - these are from Sri LGJ's composition jaya jaya dEvi, choreographed by Guru Smt. Rhaadha. These are lines from the section on pAravti pariNayam; specifically, from the scene where Siva appears as a bent old mendicant, and tries to reveal the depth of pAravti's love and devotion for the world to see - through these lines, Siva describes the apparent contrast between his rather rustic appearance, and her status as a princess. I can hear the composition again and post the details of this.
My all time favorite (as a dad) is the opening verse in pArvati pariNayam where pAravti's birth and initial years are described as the bhAgyam of himavAn!

Cameo - I listened to the section on umA pariNayam, and I thought it will be relevant to present the whole dialog. The setting is pArvati performing severe penance, swearing off even leaves, and subsisting entirely on water - dew drops on leaves and shoots (aparNA). Siva appears with the sole purpose of revealing the depth of her passion and love for him:

Siva: (hamIrkalyANi)
yAr ivviLam kanni?
yEn ittavam?


Narrator:
pAr pugazh imavAn magaL umA
ittavam tirumaNam kurittu ena navinranar
arugaNi aranum anbAi umAvai nOkki
enniDam solvAi, yArai kurittu ittavam
un uDal varutti SeigirAi enranan


umA: (kIravANi)
yen manam niRaindavan yArenru
ivariDam sollaDi sakhi nI
yen uLLam yEdum inri tan vaSam koNDAn aran
konrai malar aNi paraman candraSEkharan


Siva:
SivanA un maNALan? nanru nanru
idai viDa vindai uNDO? nanru nanru
kulam, gOtiram talam Edu
palagai ODu ADidum SivanA un maNALan?


umA:
avanai anri kaNamum ninaindariyEn
avaniyil arumtavam purivEn
Sivan varuvAn, karam taruvAn, idu urudi, AgavE (yen manam...)


Siva:
kAdalA? mAranai erittAn
kayilO pambugaL SIrum
azhagilo trinEtiran digambaran
tozhilO samhAram (anda SivanA un mNALan?...)
un paTTu pItAmbaram yengE
avan karitOlum puli tOlum engE
nI pUSuvadO narum candanam
avan pUSuvadO verum SAmbal
un araNmanai mALigai engE
avan vasippadO mayAna bhUmi
nI yAnaiyil tErinil SelvAyE
erudinil Erum (anda SivanA un maNALan?...)


umA:
poruttEn periyavarena
pOdum niruttum ini nAn sahittilEn
veruppilE yEdO uLarum nIr

engum niraindavan viSvasvarUpan
mangaLam tarum Sankaran mahAdEvan
sadASivan jaTAdharan parAtparan
dayAkaran sarvESan mahESvaranAna SivanE yen maNALan


Corrections welcome. This is based entirely on what I hear.

Thank you very much rshankar. Very happy to see the responses.
Appreciate your enthusiasm in listening and getting the lyrics and providing explanations.

Yes, i heard this in a lec-dem by Sri LGJ only in a cd which i bought recently.

Now with this more information, I would like to listen to the entire composition. Let me look out for an audio.

Thanks
