The literary wealth that Tamil Thai has received is innumerable. In ancient Tamilagam, glorifying the king's death, glorifying others and displaying the miracles of the Gods and the glories of incarnations, the Chera, Chola, and Pandyas were composed with exemplifying songs. The tamil Sangam patronized by the triumvirs (Moovendargal) developed Tamil and two thousand years ago they patronized the musical song “Paripadal”, expanding it into eight songs, ten songs, etc. The poets, who adorn Tamil as incomparable bells of light, add beauty to Tamil with their works and keep it immortal and musical. The ancient government, country, people, king, love and character can be found alive in the songs. The Vaigai river of Madurai (Vaiyai Arum) and Lord Muruga (Sevvelavan) were sung beautifully by the Tamil scholars. For the Tamil people who are striving for rejuvenation and new life, it would be better if Tamil itself is a valiant trigger. Tamil language flourished even before Agathiyar. Many poets like Nakkirar, Kanimethaviyar Nallanduvanar, Agathiyar, Tolkappiyar who sang Pannodu songs two thousand years ago, Sevvelavanodu Senthamumu and Kannakanar songs, the poets of this era Na.Ira. Through the songs of Chenniappanar and the Kandar songs of Ushlan Ilaveinar, Kunramboothanar, Nalvalutiyar, Kesavanar, among their works, they have sung the pride of Vaigai, its specialties and the glory of Tamil as the king's army. The condition of the people of that day can also be known through the poems. Even if many times pass by, it will always be Kannithamizh (Virtuos Tamil). We will worship Mother Tamilzh who knows Tamil Nalam and a Tamilian who speaks, writes and sings well in Tamil gives her supreme name so that Tamilzh Thai can be happy and aims to fullfill others hearts. The day is not far when Tamil glory will be praised in the world. Tamilzh Thai should join us and stand tall like a virtuos maiden forever.
