Minor corrections:
nIr vizhiyum---> nIL vizhiyum (nIL means long)
kuraidiDumO---> kuRaindiDumO
lIlaigaL ---> lIlaiyai
enniDam tandAl ---> enniDam vandAl
malar tanai --> malar kaNai

A few corrections:
manmatha lIlaiyai venRAr uNDO?
nIL=long (not nIR) vizhium
A hyphen after mayanginEn--because mUnRU ulagilum goes with the pallavi.
vandAl kuRAindiDumO? (not thandAl which follows in the next line).
In the last line, I'm not sure about malarthanai; there is a hyphen again after allalpaDumO? because manam kavar goes with the pallavi.

Sorry for being almost repetitious. Our posts crossed, mahakavi.
