Dear All., No problem with describing 'chiru kaale' as thiruvadi. But, in general, if it is a vocative address it will be followed by exclamation mark (!) (vilithal in tamil) e.g. sridhara! maaya! vaamanane! Whereas in Chitranchiru kaale paasuram there is no such exclamation mark implied after chiru kaale. elsewhere in the same pasuram 'govinda!' is a clearcut vocative address (vilithal). so, please let us stick to the traditional vyakhyanams which are a treasure and also to the simple literal meanings. (sva- upadesam is entitled only to poorvacharyas and not to us who are least qualifed not just in terms of anubhavam but also by the grammatical knowledge of tamil..) Thank you... arulmari.
