Meaning of a phrase in Vallalar's "tannnai yarindu"

Place to go if you want to ask someone identify raga, tala, composer etc or ask for sāhitya (lyrics) or notations or translations.

Vallalar's tiruvarutpa which starts with " tannai yaRindu inbamuRa veNNilAvE" has a line

"vEda muDi mElirukkum veNNilAvE - pala
vEdaiyuL vEdu sollay veNNilAvE"

the meaning of which is not clear. Can someone help? Is it some other word there?

Rajani,

I am assuming you want the meaning for the second half. IIRC it's

mala vEdhai uLavEdhu sollAy veNNilAve
மலவேதை உளவேதà¯ÂÂ

Thanks a ton, Vidya, for the corrections and the meaning.

Do you have a link to Tiruvarutpa verses on the net? I am afraid there may be more print errors in my book ( a school compilation of songs in diff languages)
