Illiterate Person Will Not Realize The Effects Of Virtues! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Illiterate Person Will Not Realize The Effects Of Virtues!



O’ the girl who has good manners!
…Even though a wooden scoop with a handle
can scoop and take more quantity of good ghee,
…will the scoop get the sense of knowing its taste?

Similarly, whatever we explain and reason out
…to an illiterate and uneducated person,
He will not realize even a little bit about
…the virtues and its resultant effect!

கல்லா ஒருவனைக் காரணங் காட்டினும்
இல்லைமற் றொன்றும் அறனுணர்தல் – நல்லாய்!
