Love poem Kurunthogai # 301

It is midnight. Conceived bird ANTRIL (shore bird or wader) [image] being in its nest on Palmyra tree raises its voice calling its mate. A folly bell sound is ringing in my ear as His chariot is coming in the village courtyard. It makes me sleepless.

[The lady expecting her marriage earlier says these words to her friend-maid]     
  
Author of the poem is KUNTRIYAN
2nd century B.C.
