Katra Kalviyum Viruttam Meaning

[pkrasika]

Hi,
Can someone please tell me the meaning of this viruttam. Is it on Lord Siva?

katra kalviyum, veetra padaviyum, eetiya dhanamum,
utra thunayum, petra magavum,
chutri vizhum kaalan kayitrukku udavumo,
tetri arula Sivanai ninai maname

Thank You

Here you go:

kaTRa kalviyum, vITRa padaviyum,
ITTiya dhanamum,
uTRa tunayum, peTRa magavum,
maTRa suTRamum
suTRi vizhum kaalan kayiTRukkudavumO,
tETRi aruLa Sivanai ninai manamE

Will the knowledge/skills (kalviyum) (one has) learned (kaTRa), the position (padaviyum) (one has) bought (vITRa), the wealth (dhanamum) (one has) amassed (ITTiya), a companion/spouse (tuNaiyum) that is (your) equal (uTRa), a child/son (magavum) (one has) begotten (peTRa), and other (maRRa) friends (suTRamum) be of help (udavumO) when the noose/rope (kayiTRukku) of yama (kAlan) falls (vizhum) around (suTRi) (one's neck)? (Therefore), Oh mind (manamE), think (ninai) of Siva (Sivanai), (for it is he alone who) will console (tETRi) and bless (aruLa) (you).
