The Young Bamboo That Can Easily Be Bent Gets The Esteem! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan
The Young Bamboo That Can Easily Be Bent Gets The Esteem!
The growing young bamboo that can easily be bent gets
the esteem of being the coverage over the crown of the king!
The fully grown up bamboo that cannot be bent
While making an effort to bend, by losing its
importance reaches with indigence to the hands
of acrobatic pole player, going around all over the
earth and gets degraded under their feet forever!
Likewise, the people who learnt as and when
they are young get the credit and flourish!
The people who are not educated and illiterate
will get degraded and become rubbish!
This poem 'The young bamboo that can easily be bent gets the esteem! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Neethi veNpaa'
நேரிசை வெண்பா
வருந்தவளை வேய்அரசர் மாமுடியின் மேலலாம்
வருந்த வளையாத மூங்கில் - தரித்திரமாய்
வேழம்பர் கைப்புகுந்து மேதினியெல் லாம்திரிந்து
தாழுமவர் தம்மடிக்கீழ்த் தான்.7 நீதிவெண்பா
