NILLAI ILLA MANAM
Pattum Padamalum Thamarai il vizhundha thaneeyaga
Parthum paaramal salanamedhum illa odaiyaga
Vaarthaiku marupechindri mounam kaatha peasmadandhaiyay
Sirithum sirikaamal arai manadhu punagaiyudan
Kettum ketkaadha ragasiyam pesum siru kuzhandhaiyay
Ingum angum alaindhu parithavithadhu en manam
Melum keezhum vangum moochu nee sooli endradhu
Thavariya thaalam nee paatu pazhagavillai endradhu
12 varathil thirumbaavittal vellai illai endral adhigari
Vellaikku sel veetil enna seivai enna saadinaal Amma
Rosham thavir pidivadham vidu kobamedharku endrum neetinaal
Paramugamudan Akka , vali vedhanai il Athai, Periyappa nilai patriya kavalai il ellorum
Avan indri thanimayil naan Karanamilla varugai tharum Manny
Yarukkum en nillai vilangavillai...en patriya kavalai illayo?
Nillai kola thadumaatram ekkamum thabamum sera
Mana poraatathil naan.

MY PLIGHT
Amma wonders at the detached attachment I feel for him
A lotus pad distancing itself from the water running down on it
I see and don't pay attentive observation and stay a clear running brook
Bearing in avowed silence the words and taunts thrown at me
A half hearted half smile is what I adorn
A toddler sharing unintelligible whispers
My heart keeps wandering about restlessly
Huffs and puffs reminded that I was a mother to be
A missed note and beat evoked firm censures of missed Sadhanas
Return in 12weeks or miss your position I am warned
Get back to work like us what do you gain by being home Amma chided
Stop being obstinate drop your insistence forget your rage...she listed Akka moves about choosing to ignore me and my state
Athai in her aches and pains and all in anxiety over Periyappa
My solitude sans him , his delayed advent Manny's sudden appearance surprise me
Don't I have anyone sensitive to my plight, don't they every worry about me?
I agitatedly pine and frenetically pace about in deep reverie
