| pandanus odoratissimus willd தாழை |
The waves
of the sea enter into the toy-house-lines made by the playing girls and
destroy. It is a kind of land where pandanus
odoratissimus willd blooms. You are coming and enjoying her in
such a place. This news was murmured among the people of the village. Knowing
this mother confines her in house moving outside. That is why you have returned
back without getting her union. Her budding breasts suffer for your hug. How can
I prevent you from getting her enjoyment?
There
is a village called ‘Sellur’. It is famous for the warrior’s family called ‘Kosar’.
Even if the entire village is given to her father as a gift for making jewels
to her, he wouldn’t give her to marry. You can get her married because of her
lover. Please get her married and enjoy.
A
