The Young Infants Were Sleeping With The Lullaby Of The Owl! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan
The Young Infants Were Sleeping With The Lullaby Of The Owl!
Since the men of the opponent country have not
Praised the name of the Chola king, Sembiyan,
The young infants
With shrinking lines in their red legs,
Who were delivered under the shadow
Of the leaves of shrubs,
By the women of opponent's country men
who ran out hither and thither,
Were sleeping with the lullaby by the loud
and fierceful voice of the owl in the midnight!
This poem 'The young infants were sleeping with the lullaby of the owl! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'MuththoLLAyiram'
நேரிசை வெண்பா
இரியல் மகளிர் இலைஞெமலுள் ஈன்ற
வரி இளம் செங்காற் குழவி - அரையிரவில்
ஊமன்தா ராட்ட உறங்கிற்றே! செம்பியன்தன்
நாமம்பா ராட்டாதார் நாடு.52 முத்தொள்ளாயிரம்
