Imbibing truth

36

Porulalla vatrai porulendru unarum
Marulam mana pirappu

One's birth not high
Unreal that eye

Irulneengi inban payakkumarul neengi
Maasaru katchi avarku

Clear vision absolves birth
Future, then mirth

Iyyathin neengi thelintharku vaiyathin 
Vaanam naniya thudaithu

Doubt not,  be pure
To heaven near

Ayyunarvu eithiya kannum bhayamindrey
Meiunarvu illatha varku

Five senses go, wasted
Reality not tasted

Epporul Eththanmai thayinum Apporul
Mriporul kanbathu arivu

Knowing things in fact
Their underlying tact

Katreendu meiporul kandar thalaipaduvar
Matreendu vara neri

Truth resolved not come
Their soul home

Orthullam ullathu unarin oruthalayap
Perthulla venda pirappu

Think another birth not
To knowledge got

Pirappennum pethamai neengi chirappennum
Chemporul kaanbathu arivu

Ignorance leads to births
Knowledge true mirths

Charbunardhu charbukeda ozhugin matrazhithu
Charthara chartharu noi

Annihilation desires will enrich
Evils never besmirch

Kamam veguli mayakkam immoondrin
Namamkeda kedum noi

Womanising, anger, confusion shed
Evils seen fled
