Highlights from vyAkyAnam (Commentary)

pAviyEn … – It is because of being born as my daughter that she had to go alone.

thUvi sEr … – One who can make others go crazy with her gait.

nedumAlodum pOy – One who becomes madly in love by going crazy with her gait.

vAvi … – Will they enter the town where they can play water sports, throwing flowers at each other?
