Ants Go Round And Round! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Ants Go Round And Round!



Ghee in a vessel; ants go round and round
…around the vessel knowing pretty well
these cannot taste and eat the ghee!

Similarly,

The innocent people make wasteful efforts
…to get benefits from rich persons
who never help others from their amassed wealth!

ஆகா தெனினும் அகத்துநெய் யுண்டாகின்
போகா தெறும்பு புறஞ்சுற்றும்; - யாதுங்
கொடாஅ ரெனினும் உடையாரைப் பற்றி
