Oh! The Disease Of Lust Is Cruel In The Mind Of Knowledgeable People! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Oh! The Disease Of Lust Is Cruel In The Mind Of Knowledgeable People!



The lusty feeling will not spread
..in the mind of knowledgeable people!

Even if the feel and urge is there,
..they will not express their feeling!

Even if such feeling exhibits, it will not
..stay with other women than their wives!

For such knowledgeable people,
..Oh! The disease of lust is cruel and horrible!

Even if they happen to be with their wives,
and if their wives do not have such same lusty desire,

for the fear of being shy to show it to their wife,
..the desire subsides and heals inside
their mind without saying to their wives!

Hi,
This poem 'Oh! The disease of lust is cruel in the mind of knowledgeable people! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naaladiyaar'

இன்னிசை வெண்பா

பரவா, வெளிப்படா, பல்லோர்கண் தங்கா;
உரவோர்கண் காமநோய் ஓ! ஓ! கொடிதே;
விரவாருள் நாணுப் படலஞ்சி யாதும்
உரையாதுள் ஆறி விடும்.88 பிறர்மனை நயவாமை, நாலடியார்
