Thirukural written by Thiruvalluvar consists of three books, the first book on Aram (the Way or Dharma), the second on Porul (Material or Artha) and the third on Inbam (Joy or Kama).

There are 37 chapters in the first book, the first four called Payiram or Prefactory Matter, the next twenty about Ill-Aram (the householder’s Dharma) and the next thirteen about Turavaram (the path of Renunciation). The second book on Porul contains seventy chapters, the first twenty dealing with Kings and their Duties, the succeeding thirty two chapters with the other matters concerning the State, and next thirteen, with Sundry Concerns. The third book on Inbam contains twenty five chapters, the first seven being on Pre Marital Love (Kalavu) and the next eighteen on Marital Love.

There are 133 chapters in all, each chapter contains ten distichs in the metre known as Kural and the work itself is now called by that name.

    தவ்வென்னும் தன்மை இழந்து.
  • விளக்கம்
    எனது காமம், இவ்வூரவர் கூறுகின்ற தூற்றுதலால் வளர்ந்து வருகின்றது; அத்தூற்றுதல் இல்லையென்றால், அது இன்பம் தருதலை இழந்து சுருங்கிப் போகும்.

    The rumour rising makes my love to rise;
    My love would lose its power and languish otherwise.

    Rumour increases the violence of my passion; without it, it would grow weak and waste away.
