Purananuru # 029

A modern model 
of the gold ornament lotus 
awarded by the ancient Tamil kings 
to the artist of music and dance
The poet advises the king.

  • Be your court having seized by the musicians wearing award of lotus-gold-ornament on hair spread head.
  • Then let your chest with applied sandal cream be seized with girls.
Let this enjoyment all of your kith and kin.

  • Destroying rouges and helping the good should be your duty.
  • You should not lean towards the people who say “there is no result on doing good or doing harm”.
  • Let your army be happy guarding the birds in fields, eating fired fish, drinking toddy if not drinking tender coconut.
  • Now they are happy with what they have that living in huts with creeper climbing thatched roof. Let them poor life be changed.
  • Be your days of life span helping others.
It is the life spans that the musicians playing in festival.

  • Let you and your relatives are inclined towards happiness.
  • Let your wealth enjoy fame.
