Getting Involved In The Habitual Drinking Everyday! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Getting Involved In The Habitual Drinking Everyday!

Rating: 3.5


The woman who lives the whole day in agony
With anticipation that her husband shall come home,
As the thought of his excellently chaste wife goes off,

The fellow keeping the money he earned with his effort
Tightly in his shirt pocket on his chest,
With longing grief that the wine shop may be closed in time,

Getting involved in the habitual drinking everyday
Is amounting to killing the entire family, not only himself,
But also the dependent chaste wife and children!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'Getting involved in the habitual drinking everyday! ' is a translation of a Tamil poem by Poet Esekkial from Chennai.

நாளும் நினைந்தழியும் நங்கை நினைப்பழியத்
தாளின் பணம், நெஞ்சில் தானழுத்த - நாளும்
முடியுங்கொல் லென்ற முனிவுடனே நாளும்
குடியின்மேல் வீழ்த்தல் கொலை! – எசேக்கியல்
