The Tiruppavai (Tamil: திருப்பாவை, romanized: Tiruppāvai) is a set of Tamil Hindu hymns attributed to the female poet-saint Andal.[1]
The Tiruppavai consists of thirty stanzas referred to as pasurams in praise of Perumal.[2] It is a part of the Nalayira Divya Prabandham, a collection of the works of the twelve poet-saints called the Alvars, an important part of the devotional genre of Tamil literature. The Tiruppavai has also been translated into Telugu by Mullapudi Venkataramana as Melupalukula Melukolupu.[3] In this work, Andal calls upon to all people to recite the name and glories of Vishnu.[4]
