There Are Others, Not Born With You, But Helpful! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

There Are Others, Not Born With You, But Helpful!



The disease kills by being with you, since birth;
Hence, don’t take it for granted that the brothers
and sisters born with you are your true relatives!

There are others who may be alike the medicines
that are available in the great nearby mountains
that are not born with you, but cure the ailments!

மருந்தும் உடன்பிறப்பும்

உடன்பிறந்தார் சுற்றத்தார் என்றிருக்க வேண்டா
உடன்பிறந்தே கொல்லும் வியாதி - உடன்பிறவா
மாமலையி லுள்ள மருந்தே பிணிதீர்க்கும்
அம்மருந்து போல்வாரு முண்டு.20 - மூதுரை
