| Irumbai or Iluppai Fruits இரும்பை (இருப்பை - இக்கால வழக்கு) - பழம் |
Bear used to go in search of food. It will
eat, enough fruits-‘Irumbai’ tree. When it feels, it is not tasty it will
search for ants-prey in fresh ant-hill.
That is the season with hot sun. Eagles
perking on ‘Asoka’-tree will raise their voice to catch prey that moves.
In such a dreadful forest you have
decided to cross though.
Think of your lady.
She is as beautiful as the village ‘Vilangil’
the capital of King Kadalan who is also a philanthropist. Have you decided to
leave her with tears? Ah!
A
poem by: Sattanar of Alamberi village
The text is belongs to second century
B.C. or earlier.
