A Dumb Person Having A Dream! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

A Dumb Person Having A Dream!



A Scabbard-fish trying to catch
The common snipe bird as such!

An inefficient fellow born in a family rich
Unable to manage and maintain the properties!

A person who, learned with books and education,
Have fears to speak and discuss in a learned audience!

Are considered to be like a dumb person having a dream!
He could not explain and express what he had dreamt!

வாளைமீன் உள்ளல் தலைப்படலும் ஆளல்லான்
செல்வக் குடியுட் பிறத்தலும் - பல்லவையுள்
