Thiru Manikkavasagar's Thiruvempavai - 12 !!

Jai Sriman Narayana !!
Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
In this verse, Thiru Manikkavasagar describes the significance of holy dip in the pond so as to get rid of the persistent sorrows and grief in this life and worship of Lord Nataraja of Chidambaram/Thillaikoothan who is dancing with the fire in His hand.  The supreme Lord Shiva who protects the celestial world and Earth and its living beings performs the functions of trinities.  Thiru Manikkavasagar insists to sing praising the glories of the lotus feet of the supreme Lord to the young maidens assembled to have holy dip and worship Lord in the early hours of dawn, with all that loud noise of bangles, deafening voices of women in bliss and earsplitting noises of honey bees around their hair locks.
Artha Piravi Thuyar Keda Nam Arthu Adum
Keerthan Natrilai Chitrambalathe Theeyadum
Koothan Ivvanum Kuvalayamum Yellomum
Karthum Padaithum Karanthum Vilayadi
Varthayum Pesi Valaisilamba Varkalaikal
Arpparavam Seyya Ani Kuzhalmel Vandarppa
Poothikazhum Poikai  Kudainthu Udaiyar Porpadham
Yethi Iruchunaineer Adelor Empavai
Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
Jai Sriman Narayana !!
