The story of Murugan's courtship and his union with the daughter of the hunters, Valli, is the most important of all Tamil myths of the সেকেন্ড marriage of a god. In the Sanskrit tradition, Skanda is either an eternal brahmacārin (bachelor) অথবা the husband of a rather colourless deity, Devasena, the Army of the Gods. In Tamil, in contrast, the earliest reference to a bride of Murugan is to Valli and there can be no doubt whatsoever that Valli is the আরো জনপ্রিয় and আরো important of Murugan's two brides. Hence, I do regard the lovely myth of Murugan and Valli as an indigenous-autochthonous myth, a Dravidian myth; it also contains some of the oldest indigenous fragments of myth to survive, and some of the most ancient conceptual and ideological apparatus of the Tamils.

The standard version, considered দ্বারা Tamil devotees of Murugan as canonical and definitive (although not the only one current!), is found as the very last (24th) canto of the sixth book of Kacciyappa's Kantapuranam (composed around 1350 AD in Kanchipuram); entitled Valliyammai tirumanappasalam, it has 267 stanzas. Here is its brief summary:

There is a mountain called Valli Malai অথবা Valli Verpu, not far from the village of Merpati, in the Tontainatu country. In a village beneath the পাহাড় lived a hunter called Nampi; all his children being boys, he longed for a little girl. On the mountain slope, an ascetic দ্বারা name of Śivamuni was engaged in austerities. One দিন a হরিণ went by, and the ascetic was aroused দ্বারা its lovely shape; his lascivious thoughts made the হরিণ pregnant. The daughter of Mal incarnated in the embryo.

In due time, the হরিণ gave birth to a girl in a pit dug out দ্বারা the women of the hunter-tribe when they searched for the tubers of edible রাঙা আলু (valli). The female deer, having round out that she had প্রদত্ত birth to a strange being, abandoned the child which was discovered দ্বারা the hunter-chief Nampi and his wife. Overwhelmed with joy, they took the little girl to their hut and named her Valli.
Murugan assumed the form of a hunter and, as soon as he arrived at Valli's field, he addressed the lovely girl

When Valli reached the age of twelve, she was sent to the millet field - in agreement with the custom of the hillmen – to guard the crop against parrots and other birds, sitting in an elevated platform called itanam (paran), and chasing the birds and other beasts away. The sage Narada, who visited Valli-malai and saw the girl, went to Tanikai to informed god Murugan about Valve's exceptional beauty and her devotion to the god of the hunters.

Murugan assumed the form of a hunter and, as soon as he arrived at Valli's field, he addressed the lovely girl enquiring after her প্রথমপাতা and family. However, at that moment Nampi and his hunters brought some খাবার for Valli (honey, millet flour, valli roots, mangoes, দুধ of the wild cow) and Murugan assumed the form of a বৃক্ষ (venkai, Pterocarpus bilobus).

This is a story about the pride of Brahma, our Creator. One day, Brahma was meditating. In his meditation he had gone higher than the highest, deeper than the deepest. He was in ecstasy. Brahma ব্যক্ত to himself, “How I wish I could spend all my time in this sublime meditation!”

Suddenly, there appeared in front of him the most beautiful nymph, অথবা apsara. Her name was Mohini. She ব্যক্ত to Brahma, “I want to marry you.”

Brahma got furious. “I was in such ecstasy, such bliss, and আপনি have to come here and charm me! Never! Do not come near me. Leave me alone!”

Mohini was deeply insulted....

Once Brahma and Vishnu were talking and talking and talking endlessly. In everything, they are endless! When they are silent, they do not utter a word for thousands of years; and then again, when they resume talking, they can talk for thousands of years uninterruptedly.

On this occasion, they were enjoying one of their birthless and deathless talks when, all of a sudden, Shiva appeared. For some reason, Shiva sometimes assumes a very rough manner. On that day, everything about him was uncouth. Shiva is not polished like the other cosmic gods. Around his neck there are skulls; he is adorned with...

(The court.)

JUDGE: Prince, why do আপনি keep a bird which belongs to somebody else? True, আপনি have compassion, আপনি have প্রণয় for the bird. আপনি have প্রণয় for everything. But justice says the bird belongs to Devadatta. It was he who brought the bird down to earth. It is his possession.

SIDDHARTHA: O venerable Judge, I do not know anything about justice, but my হৃদয় tells me that he who saves life is the owner, not he who takes life. My হৃদয় was bleeding for the bird and I saved it. I am prepared to give my own life for this bird.

DEVADATTA: Siddhartha, আপনি know how to talk. আপনি know perfectly well...
