The People Who Offer Help For The Needy Have Seven Eyes! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The People Who Offer Help For The Needy Have Seven Eyes!



Even though everyone has only two eyes,
The learned people, with education, have three eyes;

For the people who offer help for the needy
have seven eyes that include the pulp
in the nail beds of the fingers in their donating hand!

You know that for the people who had obtained
Graceful wisdom by suitable practiced penance
Have umpteen numbers of eyes for sure!

கண்ணிரண்டே யாவர்க்கும் கற்றோர்க்கு மூன்றுவிழி
எண்ணுவழி ஏழாகும் ஈவோர்க்கு - நண்ணும்

அநந்தம் விழியென்று அறி.10 நீதி வெண்பா
