Agananuru 214

The hero active in a war camp feels very much pondering his wife at home with expectation of his arrival. He says:
Here is raining in the dark sky at day-time. The king is watching the spears in ambition of earning fame by victory in war. Who is going to win? That is my burden.  
She will be in home with a hope that I will save her. The rain will fall; in her place also. The cattle will be returning home in the evening; bell rings at their neck. The cowherd plays music in his bow-shaped harp (Yal or Yazh) in his favorable tunes. The music will affect her to feel sad because of loneliness. Both she and I are in exciting mood in different places.
