Sri Raghavashram

Thiruppavai is a set of Tamil devotional religious hymns attributed to the female poet-saint Andal. She is Periyalvar's daughter. She was on complete fast, and bakthi for all the 30days ('Paavai nonbu') during the month of 'Margazhi' (Dhanurmaasam) and composed 30 religious hymns at the age of 5, to attain Lord Ranganatha Perumal. Thirupavai consists of thirty stanzas (paasurams). This is the first Pasuram sung in Nattai Ragam. This song is an exhortation by Andal to the gopis to go to the river at dawn on the full moon day in Margazhi, cleanse themselves and observe austerity and visit the lord  during the whole month and get wishes granted.
