Shri Andal has sung towards "Anangadeva" (manmathan) in the "thaiyoru thingaL" pasuram. Can anyone clarify why that so? 
While searching for the answer to this, i was reading  Vaishnava sudharsanam swami's answer in his magazine. He states that that she did this without knowing what she was doing..( aRivu kalangi seythaaL). 
Shri P.B Annangarachariar swami in his naachiyaar thirumozhi vyaakyaanam says about this kaamadevarchanam as "agyaanam enbathu paryaayam"( synonymous with ignorance). 
My questions are follows 
1. Has she done this due to ignorance?or is there any significance? 
2. If so then why our poorvacharyas included this pasuram in the divya prabandam?
