Agananuru 292

Sling stone passes like comet fall.
My health is spoiling in love-sick on my Man of the mountain. My mother is doing something irrelevant to cure my health. My mother is spending a lot of money giving to ‘Velan’ the priest of God Murugan. He, wearing garland in his neck, tries to sacrifice a lamp which is so young that tries to eat tender leaves because of non availability of its mother’s milk. It makes me shame. You, my friend tell me what shall I do? The lady asks her friend-maid.
My bangles are sliding down. It is the love-sick on my Man of the mountain where the elephants come to field to eat the yield of yellow millet at night; the man guarding the yield shoot stones using his sling; the stone flows fast as comet fall; it will hit Vengai-flower fall; and then spoil the honey-hive; and at last stay entering into the jack-fruit. He my lover is the man of such kind mountain.
