Advising The Virtuous Ways To The People Of Low Genetic Inheritance! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Advising The Virtuous Ways To The People Of Low Genetic Inheritance!

Rating: 5.0


The act of advising the virtuous ways to the people
Of low genetic inheritance is like squizzing the juice
From especially fine quality of mango into the pot
Where the gruel is poured for the pig to eat!

It is not only that such advices of virtues shall not fit
Into the ears of those people as if the short stick
Sharpened on one side gets blunt and could not be
Fixed on the rock of the mountain!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem '
Advising the virtuous ways to the people of low genetic inheritance! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

பன்றிக்கூழ்ப் பத்தரில் தேமா வடித்தற்றால்;
நன்றறியா மாந்தர்க் கறத்தா றுரைக்குங்கால்;
குன்றின்மேற் கொட்டுந் தறிபோல் தலைதகர்ந்து
சென்றிசையா வாகுஞ் செவிக்கு.257 நாலடியார்
