అలాము కొండకు సలాము కొట్టు

వివరణ

The riddle asks 'what salutes the mountain?' with the answer being an axe (గొడ్డలి). It's a clever wordplay where 'సలాము కొట్టు' (striking a salute) refers to the axe repeatedly striking/bowing against the mountain's trees, personifying the tool's repetitive chopping motion as a respectful gesture.
