Annam-The King;Lotus -The
Throne;Leaf- The Umbrella; Paddy-The Fan
The king majestically sits on the throne,
the Royal umbrella is erect upon the royal seat and the maidens meticulously
treat him with the roayl fan-sAmaram.
This is not any descripiton of any history
but the swan-annam sits on the throne made of soft lotus petal, the leaf on the
pool of water swirls up to give the touch of royal umbrella, the full
grown paddy moves on the wind and gives the effect of 'kavari' to the
annam.
This is not a narration from any midevial
poetry but from the very Periya Thriumozhi.

The divine poet Kaliyan comes up with
another ace. A casual observation of an annam sitting on a lotus leaf blossoms
into such a wonderful correlation of royal throne, veN koRRak kuDai and
sAmaram.
And that is Kaliyan the poet for
