There Is No Need For Any Desirable Intellectual Books For Him To Read! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

There Is No Need For Any Desirable Intellectual Books For Him To Read!



O' the girl who has eye-paste smeared eyes
..with the nature of fish!
If a person behaves and practices
..by not telling lies, by avoiding

The drinks of toddy and eating the meat,
..by not doing any immoral activity,
By not mingling the assembly of the people
..with low and mean mentality

And by not abusing and scolding others,
if you think aloud,
There is no need for any desirable
..intellectual books for him to read!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'There is no need for any desirable intellectual books for him to read! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Elaathi'

இருவிகற்ப நேரிசை வெண்பா

பொய்யான் புலாலொடு கட்போக்கித் தீயன
செய்யான் சிறியா ரினஞ்சேரான் - வையான்
கயலியலுண் கண்ணாய் கருதுங்கா லென்றும்
அயல வயலவா நூல்.14 - ஏலாதி
