Thaameyum seyvar thavarozhiththar Oomar uraitha mozhi.

Those who eliminate their own errors themselves also perform (goodness) — like the words a mute speaks.

தவறு ஒழித்தவர்கள் தாமே நல்லது செய்வர்; ஊமர் சொல்வது போல்.

Those who eliminate their own failings automatically begin doing good — just as a mute's words, when they do come, are especially meaningful. Self-correction precedes positive action naturally.
