Hello everybody, I am norwegian and new to indian classical music. I have been listening to a lot of Vikku Vinayakrams music lately, and I keep hearing renditions of this version of Shiv Tandav:

Someone on the r/carnatic subreddit told me it was tamil language, but unfamiliar. Could someone please help me write the lyrics down? Then I could translate them myself.

All help is appreciated🙏

What are the lyrics used? Though I do not speak any indian languages, they do not seem to be the same as the "normal" version of Shiva Tandav Stotram I google elsewhere. (Jatatavigalajjala pravahapavitasthale
Galeavalambya lambitam bhujangatungamalikam
Damad damad damaddama ninadavadamarvayam
Chakara chandtandavam tanotu nah shivah shivam...)

Is it another poem? Or is it the same poem, but in another language?

If anyone can help me find out more about this composition, your help would be much appreciated🙏
