Highlights from nampiLLai‘s vyAkyAnam as documented by vadakkuth thiruvIdhip piLLai
- nInga nillA kaNNa nIrgaL – While he left, the tears are not leaving. Alternative explanation – Not stopping. Another explanation – “nIkka nillA” (to be wiped off by the mothers) has become “nInga nillA” – i.e., as they wipe the tears off, it keeps flowing.
- annaiyarum munidhir – Have your eyes not shed happy tears? [Why are you scolding me for shedding happy tears?]
- thEn koL … – Only if you can stop the flow of honey in those gardens, I can stop my tears. It appears that the cause for these tears is the enjoyability of this divine abode of thirukkuRungudi.
- nAn kaNda pin – After I who know his natural supremacy, have seen it.
- pUn thaN … – Highlighting that he is the lord of both spiritual and material realms, attractive cool fresh thuLasi garland, the divine crown which is worn to highlight that he conducts both the realms, and the form which matches that garland and crown; it is easy to determine that “he is the deserving person for this garland and crown”. nanjIyar with great emotions would mercifully say “vadivum enbadhE” (she is counting his form amidst enjoying the ornaments).
- pAngu thOnRum pattum – The divine pIthAmbaram (yellow garment) which appears to have naturally grown out of the waist in the most fitting manner.
- nANum – waist string.
- pAviyEn pakkathavE – I have committed a great sin that he is neither presenting me himself to enjoy nor hiding himself in such realistic visualization. While he is appearing in close proximity, I am unable to enjoy him. He is neither letting me embrace him nor moving away from me.
