minnumaa mazhaithavazhum mEha vaNNaa!
 viNNavar_tham perumaanE! aruLaay, enRu,

min maa mazhai â lightning, and along with that heavy downpour like
thavazhum â that which spreads everywhere; 
mEga vaNNA!- on such a dark rain laden cloud colored (and natured) Swami! 
viNNavartham perumAnE- Lord of Nithya sooris! 
aruLAy enRu nee- You need to bless me with Your grace â saying thus
munivarOdu- along with the sages like Narada
amarar yEttha- Devas praise and pray to you; 
annamaay â The One who took as Hamsa (Swan) (and Hayagriva)avathAram 
aru maRaiyai â the most precious Vedas 
veLippaduttha â to propagate the Vedas and pass on for our benefit; 
ammAn thannai- such most merciful and most compassionate Lord of mine  and on 
Him; 
mannu maa maNimaada mangai vEndhan- the king of Thirumangai â which is full 
of gem stone bedecked tall and beautiful palaces
maanvEl parakalan- The yama of enemies â who holds the large sharp spear; 
kaliyan- Thirumangai AzhwAr 
sonna-composed 
panniya nool thamizh maalai- such a tamil veda saasthra- nedunthANdakam
vallAr- those who recite them
thollai pasha vinai â the time immemorial karma vasanas (karmic diseases)
mudhal ariya vallAr thaam- will have the capacity to get them all crushed and 
destroyed. 
 
This is ThirunedunthANdakam. Everyone should recite this as this is a Tamil 
Vedantha saasthra. After covering the Tatva, Hita, Purusharthas, Para, Vyuha, 
Vibhava, Antaryami and Archa forms of the Lord in the first ten verses of 
ThirunedunthaaNdakam, Thirumangai goes on to declare his Seshatvam to the Lord 
of many forms through Naayaka-Naayikaa BhAvam in the remaining twenty verses. 
He becomes Parakaala Naayaki and expresses his Apeksha (Desire) to the Lord. He 
says:

"Minnum Maamazhai Tavazhum Megavanna, Vinnavar tam Perumaaneh!
AruLaai."

What he seeks as boon is the Rakshakatvam of the Lord. The mood of the verses 
of ThirunedunthaaNdakam is an extension of the mood of TirukkurunthANdakam. 
Thus the two AruLiccheyals of the Azhwaar are thematically intertwined.

Thirumangai reminds the Lord in this concluding Paasuram about her prayer as 
His Naayaki for the boon of union with Him through the thirty verses of
ThirunedunthaaNdakam. He reveals to us that those who understand the
meanings of the ThirunedunthaaNdakam verses as a Vedantha Saastram will
completely cut asunder all their ancient, accumulated sins and attain Moksha 
Siddhi.

In the magnificent verses of ThirunedunthaaNdakam, Thirumangai begs for the
Raksha of the Lord with Maha Viswasam and hints that one has to ask for the
protection and grace (RakshaapEkshaam Prathikshatheh). Such request for help 
and intervention would destroy all the obstacles for reaching the highest 
purushaartham (Moksham) and land the requestors in the land of Sri Vaikuntam to 
enjoy the eternal bliss of Kainkaryam to Sriya: Pathi.
