CHAPTER 62 - ON PERSEVERANCE.
***
62/04. தாளாண்மை இல்லாதான் வேளாண்மை பேடிகை
வாளாண்மை போலக் கெடும்.
62/04. Taalaannmai illaadhaan vellaannmai pedigai
Vaallaannmai polak kedum.
62/04. A person who is not capable of helping others
He is like a man, who is afraid of war, is holding a sword in his hand.
***
Indira: If one can't help others,
He's unfit for any job.
Sridevi: A person who can't climb a tree
To pluck coconuts from the tree
He had a dozen knives around his waist
Which attempt is nothing but a waste.
Like this, one who's afraid of war,
He has a sword in his hand,
But he can fight how far,
When fear is ruling his head?
Only a man of perseverance
Has a tendency and good sense
To give helping hand to others,
When they're in distress.
***
62/05. இன்பம் விழையான் வினைவிழைவான் தன்கேளிர்
துன்பம் துடைத்துன்றும் தூண்.
62/05. Inbam vizhaiyaan vinaivizhaiyaan thankellir
Thunbam thudaiththunrrum thoonn.
62/05. One who wants no happiness for himself, but has perseverance
To do work, such a man will help his relatives, removing their hardships.
***
Indira: A man of perseverance will be work minded
And will not crave for his happiness very much.
Sridevi: Yes, he'll also help others,
After removing their hardships,
And thinks more about his works
Rather than his own happiness.
Rarely a kind heart one has,
Of helping others in distress,
And as a noble person he is
To help all his relatives.
His happiness remains
In serving all others
Including his kith and kin
Who loves him as their own.
***
62/06. முயற்சி திருவினை ஆக்கும்; முயற்றின்மை
இன்மை புகுத்தி விடும்.
62/06. Muarrchi thiruvinai aakkum; muyarrinmai
Inmai puguthhti vidum.
62/06. Perseverance will grow more and more wealth.
No perseverance will result in poverty.
***
Indira: If one wants more wealth
He must have more perseverance.
Sridevi: It's one's perseverance
That gives him more riches
While another man inherits
Poverty in its absence.
Without any serious efforts
One can't reach heights,
But he can even reach moon
By good efforts of his own.
Perseverance is an asset
That has no minimum limit,
And one will prosper well
When his assets swell.
