Natrinai 260

You are the man of the river-bed land where the buffalo sleeps on sand done after eating water-lily flowers in pond; and refusing lotus in the same pond. Having water-lily creeper on its horn, the buffalo appears as a farmer carrying seedlings hanged in both sides of a wooden rod. You are sleeping with me pretending as you are in love with me after return from your concubine’s house. I wouldn’t believe your behavior.
King ‘Vayavan’ destroyed his enemies in his capital Irumbai. You make my flowers on my braided hair as that of the king’s capital Irumbai. I wouldn’t believe your lie.
The lady says to her husband.

Poet:  Paranar
