காக்கை சிறகினிலே நந்தலாலா


 


காக்கை சிறகினிலே நந்தலாலா உன் கரிய நிறம் தோன்றுதடா நந்தலாலா 
sang Bharatiyar
I see your black hue in the wings of a crow, oh the darling of Nandagopa

Kumaran aasaan the great poet of malayalam said.. 

കണ്ണേ മടങ്ങുക കരിഞ്ഞുമലിഞ്ഞുമാശു
മണ്ണാകുമീ മലര് വിസ്മൃതമാകുമിപ്പോള്‍ 
എണ്ണിടുകാര്‍ക്കും ഇതുതാന്‍ ഗതി സൌഖ്യമെന്തു 
കണ്ണിരിനാല്‍ അവനിവാഴ്വു കിനാവ്‌ കഷ്ടം 
kanne matanguka karinjumalinjumaasu mannakumii malaru vismruthamaakumippol,
enniitukaarkkum ithuthan gathi saukhyamentu kanneerinaal avani vaazhvu kinavu kashtam..
My eyes, you withdraw yourself from enjoying the beauty of this flower, because in the span of a few minutes or, may be  hours, the flower will fade, become unattractive and turn into sod and shall be forgotten for ever.. 
Beware, this is the fate for all living beings on the earth...it is meaningless to shed tears,

life is but a dream, an illusion...

 So Krishna created this stunning beauty for a very short time to sit on the plant and give pleasure to the eyes of others. Why should we pluck it and shorten its lifetime? 
பூக்களைத்தான் பறிக்காதீங்க
