Hi,
Can anyone please provide the lyrics and meaning for the song Maniyarangil nadamaadum in manirangu raaga (I found this song by Sudha raghunathan in dances of Shiva)?

Thanks

Kala,

Here is my attempt at the meaning:

pallavi
maNI arangil naTamADum tillai IshanE shivakAmi nEsanE

Oh lover/husband (nEsanE) of pArvatI (SivakAmi), Lord (ISanE) of cidambaram (tillai) who dances (naTamiDum) in the jeweled theater (maNi arangil) [1] of cidambaram.

anupallavi
panitta shaDaiyum kunitta puruvamum initta porp-pAdamum kaNDu kaLittiDa (maNiarangil..)

(You dance in the jeweled hall of cidambaram) to give us the opportunity to see (kaNDu) and feast our eyes (kaLittiDa) on the vision of you with matted locks (SaDaiyum) cascading down (panitta), beautifully arched (kunitta) eyebrows (puruvamum), and very attractive (initta) golden (por) feet (pAdamum).

caraNam
shiva cidambaram enru shonnAlum pala vinaigaLum tolaindiDum manamE
tANDavam ADum naTarAjan aDi paNindiDuvOm taddhimi tarikiTatOm
taka tarikiTatOm kiTatOm tatikiTatOm dhit taka tadhingiNa tat tajjhaNu tarikiTatOm

Oh mind of mine (manamE)! The mere utterance (SonnAlum) of the phrase 'Siva cidambaram' (Siva cidambaram enru) is enough for all sorts of (pala) troubles (vinaigaLum) to disappear (tolaindiDum). So, let us all bow down (paNindiDuvOm) at the feet (aDi) of the Lord of dancers (naTarAjan) who performs (ADum) the cosmic tANDava (tANDavam) to the sor-kaTTu 'taddhimi tarikiTatOm
taka tarikiTatOm kiTatOm tatikiTatOm dhit taka tadhingiNa tat tajjhaNu tarikiTatOm' (in the jeweled hall of cidambaram).

[1] mani arnagil - also serves as the rAgamudra (maNirangu) in this composition.
