A person who owns oxen and bulls is a farmer,
A Brahman who is unable to win by valor
To get things done as he likes to his favor
Wins by tactics similar to cock coaxes and manages
To win the hen by approaching and embracing with one thigh,
A girl with beauty and knowledge is most fit for family life,
A person who has an efficient battalion of soldiers
Is an ideal commander for an army,
These are the messages said
by learned and experienced men.
Enjoyed this a lot, perhaps the English translation reads a bit uneasy, needs some work,
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
As we have so many words to describe a noun or a verb in Tamil, it is quite interesting to read the version of the Tamil poem. Well written..Enjoyed reading it!
