Hi Shrutek, I am just taking the lyrics from the link PB has given, and made minor corrections. It does not follow the transliteration rules, but will give you an idea of the words. Here is my translation:

Kamam agatriya tooyan avan - He is the pure one who has conquered desire
Sivagami soundari neya avan - He is the beloved of Sivakamasundari(Parvati)

Maamarai oodum sevvayan avan - He is the one with red lips which chant the great Vedas
Maniman renum ghana aagayan avan - He embodies the great space that is the gem-studded (golden) Sabha

Please indicate if this works for you, or you need word-by-word translation, will post the rest accordingly.

This works for me. But I need lyrics and word to word meaning of last paragraph of the song. I'm not sure if this covers that.
Thankyou :)

Thank you, Ravi.

Shrutek, when I heard the song, I realised it is "Gnana Agayan" and not "ghana Agayan". Please make the correction. ( am unable to edit the earlier post)

Mani manrenum gnana aagayan avan - He embodies the space of consciousness (Cid-Akasha) that is the gem-studded (golden) Sabha
