kanaka sabhai tirunaTanam. rAgA: suraTi. jhampa tALA. Gopalakrishna Bharati.
C: nandi bhrngi shiva kaNangaLum

It should be nandi bhrngi shiva gaNangalum

In Tamil, kshaNam becomes kaNam, an instant.

Thanks harimau.

P: kanaka sabhai tirunaTanam kaNDu kaLitt-Anandam aDaindEn

I attained (aDaindEn) bliss (Anandam), having seen(Anandam) and exulted(kaLittu) in the sacred dance (tirunaTanam) of the Golden Hall (kanaka sabhai)

A: sanaka sanandana munivargaL pADa catur mukha dEvanum tALangaL pODa

As the sages ( munivargaL) like Sanaka and Sanandana sing( pADa), and as the four-faced(catur mukha) god (dEvanum) i.e. Brahma sets (pODa) the beats of rhythm (tALangaL),

dinamum mUvAyiram pErgaLum kUDat-tikkiTa taiyya dhittOm tattOmenru

Everyday(dinamum), as the three thousand (mUvAyiram) people ( pErgaLum) assemble(kUDa), (the dance that goes) thus (enru) "taiyya dhittOm tattOm", (I saw and obtained bliss)

C: nandi bhrngi shiva gaNangaLum kUDa nAradar tumburu sangItangaL pADa

As the hordes (gaNangaLum) of Shiva gather(kUDa)around, as Narada and Tumburu sing(pADa) beautiful music(sangItangaL)

pandi pandiyAi amarar koNDADa gOplakrSNan maddaLam pODa

As rows and rows (pandi pandiyAi) of Devas (amarar) celebrate(koNDADa), and Gopalakrishna strikes(pODa) the Maddalam (I saw the dance and attained bliss)
