2. agamozhiththu vittEnO vidhuraraip pOlE

Vidhura was the brother and advisor for Drudrirashtra. He was very wise. He had great devotion to Sri Krishna.

When, at the end of the thirteen years, Pandavas asked for their kingdom back, Duryodhana refused to give it. To avoid war, Krishna went as the messenger of the Pandavas to the Kauravas, to their capital Hastinapura.

At Hastinapura, Krishna did not wish to go to Duryodhana or his near ones and stay with them. Instead, He went to Vidhura's home, even though it was a small place compared to the palaces of the Kauravas. Vidhura became extremely happy at seeing Krishna at his place. He entertained Him to the best of his abilities and thus expressed his great love for Krishna. Krishna too accepted whatever Vidhura gave to Him, because it was given without a selfish reason and offered with great devotion.

Thirukkolur Ammal is saying "Can I show such selfless love and value that Vidhura showed?", or she is saying "Can I give my heart completely, like Vidhura did to Krishna".
