Natrinai 95

Rope dance 
The hero fell in love reveals his feeling to his service-friend.
A dancing girl was treading on a rope tied in erected bamboos that spring bending while she dances, along with drum-beat.
On seeing this event baby monkey is imitating on its mother’s back. This baby has reddish face as fig-fruit. It has few hairs in its head and strong hands.
The dance was tasted by the children dwelling in the small village on hill, with hand-clap.
My lover is there.
My heart has fallen in her hands of net.
No other person can save it.

Poet: Kottambalavanar
Poem belongs to 2nd century B.C.
