Large He-Goats Are Much Better Than The Ignorant Men! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Large He-Goats Are Much Better Than The Ignorant Men!



No one will ever scold
and hate the sky above
since it is thundering!

No virtuous person will ever try to kill
the mischievous person in advance even though
he knows that the other fellow might kill him!

In spite of the calf biting the teats,
the cow gives the sweet milk
to the calf bountifully!

It is a fact that large he-goats
are much better than the ignorant men
who do not know how to live harmoniously!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'Large he-goats are much better than the ignorant men! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Innilai'

இருவிகற்ப நேரிசை வெண்பா

இடிப்பதென் றெண்ணி யிறைவானைக் காயார்
முடிப்ப ருயிரெனினு முன்னார் - கடிப்பவும்
கன்றமர்ந்து தீம்பால் கலுழுமே நீண்மோத்தை
யொன்ற வுணராதா ரூங்கு.10 இன்னிலை
