The Esteemed People Delightfully Like The Learned Persons! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The Esteemed People Delightfully Like The Learned Persons!



O' the girl who has the sharp shining eyes
To which the long spear that offers the victory
Requesting not to blame it!

The banana fruit only needs the milk subtly to eat,
Whereas the fruit of tamarind does not need the milk!

Likewise, only the esteemed people delightfully
like the knowledgeable learned persons!
But the other people will not respect them for ever!

Hi,
This poem, 'The Esteemed People Delightfully Like The Learned Persons! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'NanneRi'

நேரிசை வெண்பா

கற்ற அறிவினரைக் காமுறுவர் மேன்மக்கள்
மற்றையர்தாம் என்றும் மதியாரே - வெற்றிநெடும்
வேல்வேண்டும் வாள்விழியாய்! வேண்டா புளிங்காடி
பால்வேண்டும் வாழைப் பழம்.35 - நன்னெறி
