Re: ninranda mayilonru tALangaL pODa
Above lyrics posted have few typo/errors.
Checked 2 sources (venkatakavi.org https://venkatakavi.org/composition/ninranda-mayilonru
and one more https://www.oothukaduvenkatakavi.in/%e0%ae%a8/) both seem to have additional lines too.
There are few renditions available both in dance form videos and one singing esp
https://youtu.be/g8RLFk8j9TQ available in YT by Smt Aruna Sairam wherein she had given a translation too in description of the video but its not word-word though.
(Also it doesn't include meanings for 1/2 stanzas she had actually sung in full )
But that can give a good gist of the song piece except for those missing lines.
Note: Below i have attempted to give word-word meaning for all lines and if any errors/additions others see anywehere please feel free to do so.
