Agananuru 335

The hero invites his mind and asks to consider going on earning along with his lover in new place. Mere mercy helping a poor will not be possible without money, I know. You, my mind, decided to go on earning with the aim, I know. It is not difficult for me to fallow with you through the route, where the male elephant cut and peel skin of the ‘Ya’ tree to feed its female.
At the outside of the fort in Madurai of King Seliyan, there is a Palmyra tree with ‘Nungu’. She has her kissing saliva in her pearl-like teeth as nungu water of ambrosia. Why we cannot fetch her to our earning place?
Nungu water
her kissing saliva is as sweet as 'nungu' water

A poem by: TattanKannanar of Madurai village
The text is belongs to second century B.C. or earlier.
