The Lust Is More Frightening Than The Fire And The Shining Rays Of Sun! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The Lust Is More Frightening Than The Fire And The Shining Rays Of Sun!



The arrow, the fire and the shining rays of sun,
However they are sharp and extremely hot
Will hurt and burn externally!

But, the lust is more frightening than those
Since the lust burns one's mind and heart
By woeful torture that never heals all the time!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'The lust is more frightening than the fire and the shining rays of sun! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naaladiyaar'

நேரிசை வெண்பா

அம்பும் அழலும் அவிர்கதிர் ஞாயிறும்
வெம்பிச் சுடினும் புறஞ்சுடும்; - வெம்பிக்
கவற்றி மனத்தைச் சுடுதலால், காமம்
அவற்றினும் அஞ்சப் படும்.89

- பிறர்மனை நயவாமை, நாலடியார்
