Taking Care Of Me On His Shoulder As His Life! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Taking Care Of Me On His Shoulder As His Life!



By carrying me, the baby son on his shoulder
and driving the shoulder-chariot with a waned plow,

the eyes on the stepping feet,
taking care of me on his shoulder as his life,

In spite of the hardships that occurred
in his life as if walking on the sword,

My daddy is like a mother for the crops
by balancing the burden on the earth lands!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'Taking care of me on his shoulder as his life! ' is a translation by me of a Tamil poem by Poet.K.R.Rajendran of Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.

தந்தைக்காக ஒரு விருத்தம்

தோள்மீதில் எனையமர்த்தித் தேய்ந்ததொரு
..கலப்பையிலே தோட்டேர் ஓட்டத்.
தாள்மீது கண்ணிருக்கும் தோள்மீது
..யிரவருடைத் தாகிப் போற்ற
வாள்மீது நடப்பதுபோல் வாழ்க்கையிலே
..யின்னல்கள் வந்த போதும்
தாள்மீது பாரமது தாங்கித்தான்
..பயிருக்குத் தாயாய் எந்தை..! - க.அர.இராசேந்திரன்
