Tamil is a Dravidian language spoken by the Tamil people of India and Sri Lanka. It is the official language of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu and the union territory of Puducherry. Tamil is one of the longest-surviving classical languages in the world, with a literary tradition that dates back to the 3rd century BCE. It has a rich vocabulary and grammar, and is known for its complex system of consonants and vowels.

Over the centuries, Tamil literature has been shaped by a long line of poets and scholars. Some of the most famous Tamil poets include Kapilar, Thiruvalluvar, and Avvaiyar. These poets wrote on a variety of subjects, including love, nature, and morality, and their works continue to be widely read and studied today.

Here we describe our's tamil

Oh, the language of the Tamils,

So rich and ancient, full of grace

With a literary tradition that endures,

A symbol of the Tamil race.

Tamil people, proud and true,

With a culture that shines so bright,

Their language is a part of them,

A source of strength and light.

From the hills to the sea,

The Tamil people, strong and free,

With their words, they sing their soul,

A story that's been told for centuries old.

Oh, the words that flow so sweet,

A language that cannot be beat,

The voice of the Tamil people,

With a rhythm that can never be tamed.

The Tamil language lives on,

A treasure of the Tamil people,

With a legacy that will always be strong,

A source of pride, a source of life.
