Manaiththakka maanpudaiyaL aagith tharkondann
ValaththakkaaL vaazhkkai thunai.
She who is worthy of her home, possesses excellence, and is equal to her husband's prosperity is the true companion of life.
வீட்டிற்கு தகுந்த மாண்பும், கணவனின் வளத்திற்கு ஏற்ற குணமும் உடையவளே உண்மையான வாழ்க்கைத் துணை.
A true life partner has two qualities: she is worthy of the home (manaiththakka — has domestic grace and wisdom) and is equal to her husband's prosperity (valaththakka — rises with and sustains his growth). Neither purely domestic nor merely supportive — she is a complete equal partner in building life.
