Dr.V.K. Kanniappan Poems

You come to know by this present birth
..what activities you had done in the earlier birth!

By the activities you do in this present birth,
...

The people who live with the nobility of offering charity
And liked by multitude persons who approach them with hope
Are comparable and on par with the ever yielding female
Palmyra tree with a raised dais for the surrounding people
...

If one considers and boasts his own pride himself
thinking that he stood in good discipline
and he won the enmity of the five senses,
...

The people who make their friendship with the person
of the said qualities below such as,

A person who does not assent for someone to murder,
...

Living in a village where there is no teacher
who can teach the additions and subtractions
of the accounts in their day to day life,
...

To live as a friend with the following three persons namely,

A person who puts efforts and works hard
and lives without obtaining any loans and debts
...

O' mother! The growing teeth,
by biting and chewing the hard food particles
offer the excellent taste to the tongue!
...

Even if it is not ripen well and fully,
the banana is good for food!

But, even if nux vomica (strychnos)is ripen,
...

A person who has left by abandoning the austerity
Due to the fear in spite of the advancing old age;

An adult male who does not have union with his wife
...

The old age, taken for sure, definitely comes
to anyone, either the husband or the wife;

The sad separation comes on both sides
...
