I'm looking for the lyrics of Arunachala Kavirayar's song - charanam charanam raghurAmA.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks Lakshman sir !

Mr. Lakshman,

Some places the lyrics look odd. For example :
1. Pallavi : What is tarkaattaruL ?
2. AP : " sherndanen mEl enna upachaaram " may have been " shernda en mEl enna apachaaram" or " sharaNadainda en mEl enna apachaaram "

Some other places also I am not able to comprehend. Can someone give elucidative meaning please ?

The lines quoted are correct. நீ என்னை தற்காத்தருள் பரந்தாமா is an appeal by Varuna to protect him. தற்காத்தல் need not only mean self-protection. It also means 'to preserve' or 'to protect'.
திருவடி சேர்ந்தனென் மேல் என்ன உபசாரம் ஆயிரம் நமஸ்காரம் is also correct. If the doubt is about the word உபசாரம், it must be clarified that Varuna is using the term to say that "you don't have to respect me"
