The Tamil word for a lion is Puli,
This li comes out of your mouth,
When you flick your tongue inside.

With the roof of the mouth you do,
Then add an 'O' to it as a connector,
Finally end it with the lion's color.

The lion in question is grey in color,
So it becomes Puli O' Grey finally,
And it's a Kannada word for a food!

Puliyogare!
I have a magnificent genetic makeup.
My dad is an Aryan from North India.
My mom is a Dravidian from South India.

In Southern states like Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, a particular tamarind rice dish is made on special festive occasions.

It is called Puliyogare in Kannada (most ancient living language globally), and called Puliyodharai in Tamil (most spoken South Indian language).
