What Is The Use Of Safeguarding The Wealth With Greed? Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

What Is The Use Of Safeguarding The Wealth With Greed?



If any person who stays safeguarding
His wealth unnecessarily with greed,

Without eating the essential nutrient food,
Without establishing his pride and esteem,

Without enriching his respect and fame,
Without an attempt to relieve the sufferings

Of the rarest of the rarest close relatives,
Without offering the needy help to the people

Who ask for, O' Alas! What is the use of his wealth?
He is considered as a pauper who lost his wealth!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'What is the use of safeguarding the wealth with greed? ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

நேரிசை வெண்பா

உண்ணான் ஒளிநிறான் ஓங்கு புகழ்செய்யான்
துன்னருங் கேளிர் துயர்களையான் - கொன்னே
வழங்கான் பொருள்காத் திரும்பானேல், அஆ
இழந்தானென் றெண்ணப் படும்.9

செல்வம் நிலையாமை, நாலடியார்.
