Mmgl Part 018-001 - Udayakumaran Went To Ambalam



(In the beggar's role, Manimegalai begged alms.
Chitrapathi got annoyed and vowed before the
dancing girls. She went to Udayakumaran to
instigate him to get Manimegalai. At first
he refused but influenced by her sweet words
his own lust, he proceeded towards Ulagavaravi.
He asked Manimegalai why she took this
ascetic role? She told him the reason for it.
and disguised herself as Kayachandigai.
Not knowing this, he took a vow before
Sambapathi.)

CHITRAPATHI'S NATURE

Manimegalai's ascetic role,
And her giving others dole,
From the Amudhasurabhi bowl,
Chitrapathi heard from the people.

She felt like a red hot rod
That went into her wound.
She told the stage dancers,
"I'll stop this nonsense."

AN ACT OF JOKE

"After Kovalan's demise,
Madhavi, as a surprise,
Joined the Buddha's school,
That was an act of ridicule."

"It's a talk of the town,
And is a mockery to anyone,
Who normally says, "It is worth."
This is the exact truth."

NOT CHASTE WOMEN

"We aren't that kind of women,
Having lost their dear men,
To jump into the funeral pyre
And burn themselves in the fire."

"We're that kind of women,
Who receive things from men,
So, we can't be chaste women
In the livelihood we've chosen."

COMMUNITY DISCIPLINE

"After the yazh player dies,
To another hand the yazh goes.
After sucking honey from flowers
The bees care not for these flowers."

"We're like these yazh and flowers,
Sometime, we also leave our lovers,
Once we take out what all they've.
This kind of profession we've."

I'LL BRING HER BACK

"My daughter is Madhavi.
She gave birth to Manimegalai,
Whose embrace Udayakumaran
Is longing for time and again."

"I'll bring and here she shall be,
For the sake of our prince-bee
Who'll not fall for anyone,
But, for her, he has fallen."

"That bowl she should give,
To those willing to receive.
With the prince, I'll bring her
In a golden chariot here."

CHITRAPATHI'S VOW

"Our stage dancers carry blame,
On their heads with no shame,
And a villain I shall be
In this drama, you'll all see."

WENT TO THE PRINCE

Then she walked all the distance
To meet the royal prince,
Along with some stage-girls,
Wearing jingling bangles.

MET UDAYAKUMARAN

It was a beautiful hall,
With raised pillars tall,
Artistically designed walls,
Which glittered like pearls.

In the hall, she met Udayakumaran,
Who was sitting on a golden throne.
She bowed to his lotus feet.
She got up and began to greet.

NO MISTAKE

In a sarcastic manner,
The prince received her.
He inquired from her
About their welfare.

"Is the beggars' role of Madhavi
And her daughter Manimegalai
It's going on unbroken? "
This was his question.

THE FLOWER IS FREE

Chitrapathi said:

"The flower has bloomed.
But it's not yet groomed.
Oh Prince, as a bee you're
To taste it you're meant for."

"That flower in this town,
Is in the graveyard garden,
And it lives like a mendicant,
That's not so significant."

MENTIONED HIS DESIRE

Just like a drowning man
Catching straw piece one,
The prince took Chitrapathi
To get hold of Manimegalai.

The prince said:

"One day, in the marble hall,
I saw a beautiful girl,
Who stood like a portrait.
To leave her then I thought."

"Her magnetic fingers' hold,
They clubbed together to fold,
And reveal her tender breast.
I happen to see this just."

"Her coral-pieces-like lips
Hiding her teeth in rows
They threw a new kind of smile
That I wished to drink and avail."

"Like the Kayal fish her eyes,
"She's different from others, "
This the eyes said to her ears
The same as I found in hers."

"Outside the marble hall,
I saw this coral-color-girl,
I thought she was so hiding
For fear of my heart breaking."

"With these thoughts in my mind,
Even by midnight no sleep I could find.
I was awake through out the night.
I was immersed on this portrait."
