Natrinai 134

yellow millet
தினைக்கதிர் 
millet watching
பரண் மீது ஏறித் தினைப்புனம் காத்தல்
The lady and her friend-maid are conversing.
The friend-maid starts the conversation. One good leads another. I see practically in your case. He, your lover points a place for your love meeting. This is a good thing. It leads another. Your mother and your father ask you to go to the millet field to gourd the yield from the birds eats destroying. Are you willing to proceed?
The lady replied in her joking mood: I am not interested.

Poet: Not known
Poem belongs to 2nd century B.C.
