Theevinai seythaarku odiththodarndh eerkkum
Kaaviri ennum kani.
Evil deeds pursue and pull (the doer) like the Kaveri river following its course relentlessly.
தீவினை செய்தவர்களை ஓடி தொடர்ந்து கவிழ்க்கும்; காவேரியாற்றின் வெள்ளம் போல்.
Evil deeds pursue their perpetrators with the relentlessness of a flooding river. The Kaveri in flood cannot be stopped; similarly, the consequences of evil cannot be escaped. The image of an unstoppable river pursuing the doer is both vivid and frightening.
