HELP NEEDED , TAMIL SPEAKERS ?? -About Susheela Raman

Hi people :wavey:

There's a wonderful singer I've been fond of since the day I discovered her a few years ago : Susheela Raman-she's English of Indian roots , and sings either in English , or in native Indian languages such as Telugu, Sanskrit, Tamil or Hindi

There's a song I particularly like(between several others) and don't have the original lyrics- I think it's in Tamil -it's a "Tiruvachakam"(hymn to Shiva) called "Blue Lily , Red Lotus"

Here are the translated lyrics:

"This pond is filled
With blue lilies and red lotuses
Water bird sings
Snakes entire
People gather to wash away their dirt
This pool is then Shivashakti
Where with shuddering breath
Anklets and bracelets jangling
We enter the water
Raising waves"

I don't know if some people here speak Tamil, but if someone does and sees this, could you please try and translate this text for me ?

Thanks very much in advance if by any chance someone can help :)

i speak tamil, but it's a lil too complicated to translate.

What she said.

oh wow :)

if ever you appear to hear the song , maybe you could still give it a try to transcribe the lyrics ? :angel:

still, thx for answering , at least I know someone saw my request :kiss:

the best thing would be to actually hear the song because I trust you it must be hard to translate ...
:sad:

I managed to recognize the word "paninthe" a few times in this song , actrually she says it in another song which I have the lyrics of

thx :kiss:

oh ok
unexpected meaning , but thanks ;)
