As The Birds Fly To The Far Off Place Leaving The Nest Empty In The Tree! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

As The Birds Fly To The Far Off Place Leaving The Nest Empty In The Tree!



As the birds fly to the far off place leaving the nest empty in the tree,
the human beings are born in families as relatives without asking
for anybody's opinion and die later as it is of no use to anyone
and lay straight leaving their body to the relatives for disposal!

Hence, it is advised to do virtues while alive since we do not know
When the death will happen and leave the worldly life suddenly
Without the alternate arrangement of the wealth for future generation,
Well known fact that you go to the place of no return for ever!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'As the birds fly to the far off place leaving the nest empty in the tree! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

நேரிசை வெண்பா

கேளாதே வந்து கிளைகளாய் இல்தோன்றி
வாளாதே போவரால் மாந்தர்கள் - வாளாதே
சேக்கை மரன்ஒழியச் சேண்நீங்கு புள்போல
யாக்கை தமர்க்கொழிய நீத்து.30

- யாக்கை நிலையாமை, நாலடியார்
