Natrinai 269

She is lying on her bed decorated with garlands. Her baby is crawling on her breast eating milk. The baby is wearing Kinkini ornament in his waist. Her belly is alluring. Her mouth smiles majestically. That is her mind. She is valuable more than your soul and my soul. Her eyes are turning, studying something strange in your character. You, my Lord, please consider her dependence upon you. If you leave her for earning in a distant place, without considering her position, nobody can say what the result would be. 
The friend-maid says to the husband of her lady.
 
Her baby is eating milk 
Poet:  IlanKiranar son of Eyinandai
This is a poem of second century B.C.
