The Merit By Education And Wisdom That Make The Men Great! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan
The Merit By Education And Wisdom That Make The Men Great!
No one will try to approach the age old Cobra
looking for fetching the illuminating Ruby
that it ejects from its mouth while it goes for prey;
And no one will accept to swallow the poison since
it came from the oceon of milk while it was churned!
Likewise, no one needs to look at others as superior
and inferior by birth, but look for the merit
by education and wisdom that make the men great!
This poem 'The merit by education and wisdom that make the men great! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'NanneRi'
இருவிகற்ப நேரிசை வெண்பா
ஆக்கும் அறிவான் அலது பிறப்பினால்
மீக்கொள் உயர்விழிவு வேண்டற்க - நீக்கு
பவர்யார்? அரவின் பருமணிகண் டென்றும்
கவரார் கடலின் கடு.22 - நன்னெறி

Definitely it is not by the virtue of one's birth that a man is assessed, but by one's education, refinement and the wisdom to behave in the manner suited for each occasion! Great thoughts! So happy to have heard from you after a long time.....sir!
