The performer who is a friend of mine says that the story is about a 'Vyali' (Deadly Serpent) who was about to harm the world. Thw whole Devas were not sure how to quell it. At this time goddess Saraswathi played her veena and the Vyaali was so pleased and forgot everything in that excitement. Then the goddess caught him and tied it to her Veena. Probably the lyrics is vEnakul vyAliyay kudiyiruttAi nI - meaning She placed the vyaali in the veena or tied it to the veena
