Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *rul, *ruls) : phonetic 畾 (OC *ruːl) + semantic 糸 (“fine silk”). The original meaning is "rope; to bind", hence any reference to being tired after hard work in the fields or after sewing is a folk etymology based on modern meaning.

Etymology

“to bind; rope”
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *rej ~ s-rwi(j) (“obscure internal channel; cord; string; creeper; cane; rattan”); cognate with Mizo hrui (“creeper; cane; rope”), Burmese ရိုး (rui:, “kind of creeper; tree (in compounds)”).
Related to 虆 (OC *roːl, *rul, “creeper; rambler”), 藟 (OC *rulʔ, “to wind; creeper”) (Wang, 1982).
Proto-Tai *roːjꟲ (“to string together”) (whence Thai ร้อย (rɔ́ɔi)) may be a loan from Chinese (Manomaivibool, 1975).

Also see 累 (OC *ruːls, *rolʔ, *rols).
