I Will Be Happy All The Day!
I am sad, now, every day,
My heart flare up day by day,
She tortures me every day,
She is schizophrenic from childhood day,
She is not leaving me all the way,
She has to bid farewell early day!
What I can say today,
What can I do this day?
Divorce is the only way,
When the day the demon shall go away,
And a healthy mistress comes my way,
I will be happy all the day!

An Esteemed Person
As a yak in Himalayas happens to lose
its thick fur-like hair during winter season,
It can't survive and die due to heavy snowfall;
Similarly An Esteemed Person,
if he happens to lose his modesty,
shall die if the lost modesty is regained!
(ThirukkuRaL 969)
Is there Any Esteemed Person nowadays?
Many persons who attended CBI enquiry
are in Tihar Jail and are still alive!

Early to bed and early to rise
Early to bed and early to rise
is a proverb said by elders,
This is the time to study
and remember your lessons;
Try to get good friends
and play while you play;
Every child needs life style changes
to prevent obesity without sitting in one place
monotonously seeing television;
Get up and walk everyday
morning and evening, twice a day,
to keep you fit for the whole day.

A victory flag will fly with democracy
There are so many falling roots in our banyan tree
We are the younger roots among these ones;
If these roots are anchored in the land,
it is an array of strengthening the
principal root of that tree;
Then - a victory flag will fly
Over the root that forms an array;
On top of it - frontal area of the flag -
There will be three thilaks - these are
FREEDOM
DEMOCRACY
SOCIALISM.

She Is My Angel
I came to existence in this world,
O' mother, You brought me to this world,
You only brought her, my wife, to my world,
I have to live with her and thrive in this world;
Don't quarrel with each other,
Both of you are important to me,
Both of you live peacefully,
Allow me to live peacefully;
You are my God,
She is my Angel,
Let our lives go smoothly,
We will live happily!

Prowess Is The Highest Quality For Great Men
Valour is the ability
to show the individual's strength
to control external enemies;
Prowess is the highest quality for great men
who can easily control internal enemies
like lust in self;
Such great men will not show interest
in other women, others' wives;
This quality is not only the virtue of these great men,
but also a great discipline of noble persons. (ThirukkuRaL 148)

Teasing each other is a pleasure for lovers
Lovers tease each other for some time
For a silly reason and pretend to misunderstand
For the purpose of understanding
And happiness;
Teasing each other
Is a pleasure for love desire;
Then they convince each other;
And they enjoy the intimacy of love;
It is more pleasurable to enjoy
Conjugal happiness for ever;
While they happen to unite after
Cajoling and compromising the lover!

Don't Say, In Hasty, Unparlimentary Words!
One should not make fun of anybody,
however he is an ordinary man and poor;
However best and invaluable material may be,
don't accept from UNDESERVED persons
whose offering hand is above and
your receiving hand is below;
However the words and deeds offend you,
said by persons poor by birth and reputation,
Don't loose your temper and furious;
Don't say, in hasty, unparlimentary words!

Flower Which Has No Pleasant Scent
A learned person who is not capable
of expressing - (what he has learnt
and what he likes to say) -
effectively and efficiently in such a way
that the listeners can understand fully
is equal to a full bloomed beautiful flower
which has no pleasant scent and flavour
to spread in the atmosphere.
Ref: ThirukkuRaL 650

Controlling His Five Senses
If a man is capable of controlling his five senses,
(by not doing any harm to anybody)
- his physical body, mouth, eyes, ears and nose
while facing the situation to do something harmful
demanding his virtue and character -
like the tortoise which withdraws into its shell
all the five parts of its body like four legs and head
while in danger;
It safeguards him, like a fort, in his future seven births.
