Kilippattu


Kilippattu or parrot song is a genre of Malayalam poems in which the narrator is a parrot, a bee, a swan, and so on. Kiḷippaṭṭu was popularized by the 16th-century poet Ezhuthachan.
In Adhyathmaramayanam, each chapter begins by calling the parrot and asking it to tell the story of Rama.
