The author said:
"Kannagi stood before me.
Also she blessed me,
To be a king of pleasure,
Beyond a limitless measure."
THE AUTHOR'S REQUEST
"Leave your worries.
Be sure God exists.
Listen to the wise.
Fear for the lies."
"To blame others don't rush.
Stop eating food made of flesh.
Never attempt to kill anyone.
Do charity to everyone."
"Observe moral code of conduct.
To pay gratitude never forget.
Bad companies completely avoid.
False witness words never be said."
"Be in the company of great men.
Avoid the crowd of bad men.
Never on other's wife cast your eyes.
Save the animals from their pains."
"Never do acts of sins.
Avoid drinking wines.
To theft, never resort.
Never be after a life of lust."
"Don't speak lies.
Avoid vain gossips.
Youth, body, wealth, yes,
They never stay with us."
"One can't avoid birth,
Or after birth, the death,
So, search for the truth
While staying on this earth."
"Lead a life of austerity,
In this world of prosperity.
Try to attain a state of eternity.
This is my advice to posterity."
THE CROWNING GLORY
The crowned kings three,
They had their rule free
From worries or shortfalls,
They ever remained peaceful.
Their capitals were joyful
With festival after festival,
They spent days on folk dances
Side by side sang folk songs.
The city guards kept alert.
At nights they never slept.
The soldiers did their duty,
For the safety of the city.
A peaceful life Senguttuvan led,
After winning the wars he led.
His crowning glory spread,
In the world far and wide.
