Hi, is it possible for someone to please provide the meaning of this song?

If not, I want to mainly be sure of something- is that item only in praise of the Govindaraja sthalam at Chidambaram Temple, or does it praise both Govindaraja Perumal and Lord Nadaraja?

The song glorifies the Govindaraja Sannidhi in the Temple and compares the pujas, rituals and festivals conducted in this Sannidhi with those conducted for Nataraja. The intention is to highlight that though Chidambaram is normally deemed to be a Shiva kshetram, Vishnu also is present there. This is a very important song with some historical aspects in it. The underlying philosophy is that though Shiva and Vishnu are worshipped differently, essentially they are same and they are two sides of the same coin - " Harihara bheda raahityam " as it is known.

Sanjay Subramaniam sung this song in Sahana quite emotionally.
