Get The Friendship Of The People With The Nature Of The Dog! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Get The Friendship Of The People With The Nature Of The Dog!



Keeping aside the friendship of those people
who have their nature similar to the elephant,
You should pleasantly accept and get the friendship
of the people with the nature of the dog!

Because, however you have trained for a long time
and well accustomed to the behavior of the elephant,
it might find fault with him and kills him with anger!

But, even though the trainer has really pierced
its body with spear, the dog will keep on wagging
its tail with thankfulness and love!

யானை யனையவர் நண்பொரீஇ நாயனையார்
