The friend-maid consoles her lady.
He, my lady’s lover assured her
returning back before rainy season when Flower Mullai will bloom in bush
appearing as deer with dots on its body, and went on earning. He did not come
yet. So the thunder hears is not in real rainy season. I shall not believe the
rain and thunder as they are in real season as the peacocks believe and dance
in folly season.
With these words the maid conveys to
her lady his lover will return surely as he assured.
Poet: Kasipan Kiranar
This is a poem of second century B.C.
