Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Periya Thirumozhi 7-1-1 pasuram:

kaRavA madanAgu than kanRuLLinAl pOl
maRavAthadiyEn unnaiyE azhaikkinREn
naRavAr pozhil sUzh naRaiyUr ninRa nambi
piRavAmai enaippaNi enthai pirAnE

Amudhanar tried to explain the first phrase in the
pasuram "kaRavA madanAgu than kanRu uLLinAl" as, a 
cow that has not been milked yet (kaRavA madanAgu),
thinking about its calf (than kanRu uLLinAl). 
However, this did not fit the meaning of the rest 
of the pasuram, as Azhvar uses this comparison to 
say that he is crying to the Lord in the same 
fashion.

Bhattar then interpreted the phrase as, the calf 
whose mother has not been milked yet (kaRavA 
madanAgu than kanRu), thinking about its mother 
(uLLinAl). This, fit the rest of the pasuram
correctly.
