Agananuru 277

Spring season attacks me as cock attacks another cock, when my husband is not with me to enjoy, the lady says to her friend-maid.
The beauty in my face is fading as the dark eating the warm evening. By this time he is indulging in earning wealth in distant place. Having s spear alone as his companion, he is traveling in a dangerous forest where the tiger roars as the sound arise when the peasant-girl wave-twisting the milk in pot to get butter, to remove the hungry of the female-tiger watching for wild pig to get prey. There will be shadow lines of old trees to rest a while. The land will be dry everywhere. That is the route he will crosses.
You, my friend listen to me.
When my husband not return to me the spring season is attacks me. It makes Murukkam-flower wither. As a cock attacks another, the spring is attacking me forcefully. I feel there no way to reduce my love-desire.
Cock fight
As the cock attacks, the Spring attacks me when I am  waiting for him in love sick, she says
