MEANING :
Nappinnai, daughter in law of powerful Nandagopar (who has the strength of a elephant and who never retracts in a battle field), who has a fragrant hair please come and open the door. Roosters from all directions are crowing, cuckoos sitting on the bower of Maadhavi flowers have cooed gently many a times. As we sing in praise of the Lord, oh lady, who has fingers that defeated Krishna in a playful ball game, please come with joy with your bangles making sweets sounds and open the door with your red lotus like soft hands.
How is it that "maiththunan pEr paada" has been interpreted as "sing in praise of the Lord" ?
