Elupirappum tiyavai tinta palipirankap
Panputai makkat perin.

A man's children who are blemishless and cultured, safeguard his family reputation for generations.
Though I have preferred to translate the phrase 'Yelupirappu' as through 'generations', the exact meaning is through the 'seven births'. A person with such children who are pure and cultured will according to Parimelalagar, go through his chain of seven births without blemish and definitely attain ultimate release.
The Bible says in this context:
'The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice'.
Here again the Karma theory comes in testifying to Valluvar's firm roots in the Hindu religion and philosophy.
