How Is It The People Who Do Not Realize The Good And Bad Do Live Happily? Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

How Is It The People Who Do Not Realize The Good And Bad Do Live Happily?



Good fortune and moral merits
that fit with someone in this wide world

Surrounded by the ocean on all the sides
are entirely different, it is said!

Because, as and when the people
who realize what is good and bad

remain not cherished, the people
who do not realize the good and bad

Living like thorny plant and dummy stake
set up in the corn field

do live happily by wearing the silky
and richest dress! How is it?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'How is it the people who do not realize the good and bad do live happily? ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

இருவிகற்ப நேரிசை வெண்பா

புணர்கடல்சூழ் வையத்துப் புண்ணியமோ வேறே;
உணர்வ துடையா ரிருப்ப - உணர்விலா
வட்டும் வழுதுணையும் போல்வாரும் வாழ்வாரே,
பட்டும் துகிலும் உடுத்து.264 நாலடியார்
