I Didn't Really Understand Why My Daughter Hugged My Entire Body! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

I Didn't Really Understand Why My Daughter Hugged My Entire Body!



I didn't really understand even a little bit
..Of the nature of reality why my daughter
Hugged my entire body by pressing her breast
..With nipple and her pearl necklace wholly over me!

I understand now that it was the indication of my dear
..Daughter that she was eloping with her lover
As if the herd of deers gets separated across
..The entire forest with the fear of the tiger!

Hi,
This poem 'I didn't really understand why my daughter hugged my entire body! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

முலைக்கண்ணும் முத்தும் முழுமெய்யும் புல்லும்
இலக்கணம் யாதும் அறியேன் - கலைக்கணம்
வேங்கை வெரூஉம் நெறிசெலிய போலும்என்
தீம்பாவை செய்த குறி.399 - நாலடியார், காமநுதலியல்
