CHAPTER 133- VARITIES OF SULKINESS OF WOMAN.
***
133/04. புல்லி விடாஅப் புலவியுள் தோன்றும்என்
உள்ளம் உடைக்கும் படை.

133/04. Pulli vidaap pulaviyull thondrrumen
Ullam udaikkum padai.

133/04. "I am unable to come out from embracing my lover,
The reason is that sulkiness that broke my heart as a weapon."
***
Harjeet: After feeling very much for her sulkiness
She is now embracing her lover tightly.

Chiranjivi: True, this is a game of lovers
Where there is no winner
Or for that matter any loser.
In the event of a compromise.

Her sulkiness melted her heart
And she incidentally felt
For her lover's patience,
And his positive response.

Her embrace itself proves
That she has sympathies
For his bearing with her
Despite her lovely torture.
***
133/05. தவறிலர் ஆயினும் தாம்வீழ்வார் மென்றோள்
அகறலின் ஆங்கொன்று உடைத்து.

133/05. Thavarrilar aayinum thaamveezhvaar mendrroll
Agharralin aangkghondrru udaiththu.

133/05. "Even if there is no fault with a male,
He acts as if he has a fault and touches
His lover's shoulders that gives more pleasure."
***
Harjeet: This love play comes to a close
With both getting pleasure in the game.

Chiranjivi: He's very much clever,
In acting like a culprit to her lover
And getting her due sympathies
For his show of kindness.

He understood her feelings,
And tried his best to neutralize
Her erstwhile sulkiness,
With his God given patience.

Hope this will for the present,
Continue in a friendly spirit,
Until another game starts
In their future love affairs.
***
133/06. உணலினும் உண்டது அறல்இனிது; காமம்
புணர்தலின் ஊடல் இனிது.

133/06. Unnalinum unndadhu arralinidhu; kaamam
Punnardhalin oodal inidhu.

133/06. "The food eaten must get digested to get pleasure.
Like that sulkiness gives more pleasure than love play."
***
Harjeet: It may be a fact because she says
Out of her experience.

Chiranjivi: When there is indigestion
One gets some kind of irritation.
When next hunger comes after digestion
One is happy with his stomach's action.

She says, that sulkiness gives,
Her, in fact, more happiness,
As it tortures severely her lover,
Which gives her sadistic pleasure.

Anyhow she wins the game
That gave both of them
What they were waiting for
At the end of all these hours.
