Don't Be Too Much Desirous Of This Youthful Girl Of Spear-Like Sharp Eyes! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Don't Be Too Much Desirous Of This Youthful Girl Of Spear-Like Sharp Eyes!



To be young and youth life of every one of us
Is like the nature of fruit yielding trees in the cool
And misty grove from which all the fruits,
As and when they ripen, wither and fall down!

Hence, don't be too much desirous of this youthful girl
As the girl who has spear-like sharp and beautiful eyes!
She too, will become hunch back in her old age; will have
To use the stick, as the eye, in her hand to support walking!

Hi,
This poem 'Don't be too much desirous of this youthful girl of spear-like sharp eyes! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

நேரிசை வெண்பா

பனிபடு சோலைப் பயன்மர மெல்லாம்
கனியுதிர்ந்து வீழ்ந்தற் றிளமை - நனிபெரிதும்
வேல்கண்ணள் என்றிவளை வெஃகன்மின் மற்றிவளும்
கோல்கண்ண ளாகும் குனிந்து.17

இளமை நிலையாமை, நாலடியார்
