Avvayaar and four crores

Avvayaar and four crores

 

Translation by

P.R.R.Ramachander

 


A king met Sage Avvayar , the poetess and asked   for four crores ,

 

She said:-

 

1.Mathiyaathaar  muthram ,

Mathithu oru kaal chendru

Mithiyamai kodi perum

 

The courtyard  of those  who do not respect  you.

By chance. ,  not going  and stepping on it  ,

You will  get one crore

 

2.Unneer , unneer yendru   upachariyaar

Tham Manayil  Unnamai kodi perum

 

Not taking food  in the house, where

They fondly request you, “ Please  join us for food, “

You will  get one crore

 

3.Kodi koduthum  kudi piranthaar

Thammodu kooduthal,Kodi perum

 

Having company of good and noble,

Even if we pay  one crore

You will get one crore

 

4.Kodanu kodi  koduppinnum

THannudaya naakkodamai  kodi perum

 

Even if you pay  crores and crores

Not going back on your word

You will get one crore
