Thiruppaavai and Naachiyaar Thirumozhi. Andal's devotion and bhakti was supreme love for Lord Krishna. She vowed that Lord Krishna would be her lover and her husband. She invoked her Lord by chanting the hymns of Thiruppavai and Naachiyaar Thirumozhi. She chose the early morning hours in the Tamil month Margazhi to chant the hymns. She was thinking that Lord Krishna is her Lord and also her reality. She was able to reach and got married with Lord Krishna as vowed by her. Of the 173 hymns composed by her, the 30 hymns Thiruppaavai are well known.
