The Son Should Safeguard His Father To Overcome The Fatigue In His Old Age! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The Son Should Safeguard His Father To Overcome The Fatigue In His Old Age!



As if the banyan tree eaten by termites is supported
by its falling multiple roots with their strength,

When the fatigue due to the old age appears in one's father,
if the son born to him safeguards and protects him,
The father will overcome the fatigue and live longer!

Hi,
This poem 'The son should safeguard his father to overcome the fatigue in his old age! ' is a translation by me of a poem from Tamil literature 'Naalatiyaar'

ஒரு விகற்ப இன்னிசை வெண்பா

சிதலை தினப்பட்ட ஆல மரத்தை
மதலையாய் மற்றதன் வீழூன்றி யாங்குக்
குதலைமை தந்தைகட் டோன்றிற்றான் பெற்ற
புதல்வன் மறைப்பக் கெடும்.197 நாலடியார்
