Natrinai 117

Leaves of water-lily
Evening came. I am alone without his company. Peoples are murmuring about his relation with me. They are insulting me. It seems that I couldn’t leave me with life. These are the words revealed by the heroine to her friend-maid.
This is evening time. The waves in sea increase. The littoral land smells with flowers. The waves in lagoons dash up to my mouse. The petals in water-lily are shutting. The birds in park are flying to their nest. The sun-light is passing away. The sun sets. The leaves are trembling without sun-light. The evening is coming in this way. It seems that he is not worrying about time. I can’t live for long-time. My friend, listen to me; my love-sick one side and murmuring another side are attacking my character. What shall I do?

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