You Offer At Least A Small Measure Of Rice To The Poor Everyday! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

You Offer At Least A Small Measure Of Rice To The Poor Everyday!

Rating: 5.0


You offer at least a small measure of the said to be
The smallest variety of rice to the poor as possible as
You can everyday and then you eat!

Because, the virtuous people say that in this earth
Surrounded by the ocean, the poorest people who do not
Have the fire hearth to cook their food (No means)were the people
Who had not offered anything to anyone in their previous birth!

This poem 'You offer at least a small measure of rice to the poor everyday! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naaladiyaar'

நேரிசை வெண்பா

இம்மி யரிசித் துணையானும் வைகலும்
நும்மில் இயைவ கொடுத்துண்மின் - உம்மைக்
கொடாஅ தவரென்பர் குண்டுநீர் வையத்து
அடாஅ அடுப்பி னவர்.94

ஈகை, நாலடியார்
