The Ignorant Person Could Not Be Comparable With Greater Persons! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The Ignorant Person Could Not Be Comparable With Greater Persons!



O' the Goddess having a pair of parallel breast
that had excelled the greatness of gold!
Don't you know? Tell me!

The Vindhya Mountain that talked of its pride of its height
Had lowered in front of the saint Agasthiya!

Likewise, the ignorant person who praised himself
In front of the greater persons could not be comparable
And gets lowered leaving aside his greatness!
