CHAPTER 70 - CO-OPERATION WITH KING
***
70/04. செவிச்சொல்லும் சேர்ந்த நகையும் அவித்தொழுகல்
ஆன்ற பெரியார் அகத்து.
70/04. Sevichsollum serndha nagaiyum aviththozhugal
Aanrra periyaar agaththu.
70/04. When a reputed king is near, one must avoid
whispering into ears of another person or smile at his face.
***
Akshay: It is not good manners to whisper into ears or smile
at some one, when the King is close by.
Dhiraj: Yes, it's not good manners
To smile at or whisper into ears
Of someone, when the King is near,
That'll give room for suspicion or fear.
Some conspiracy is going on,
He may think by such signs,
And may even put them jail,
If their explanations fail.
From the etiquette point,
It's also not correct,
To do such doubtful things
In the presence of a King.
***
70/05. எப்பொருளும் ஓரார் தொடரார்மற்று அப்பொருளை
விட்டக்கால் கேட்க மறை.
70/05. Epporullum oraar thodaraarmatrru apporullai
Vittakkaal ketka marrai.
70/05. When a King is talking to someone secretly, one should not try to hear it or be after it until he reveals what it is?
***
Akshay: It is not good to listen when someone talks secretly.
Dhiraj: Leave alone a King,
A common man is talking
With one secretly something
It's no good overhearing.
When two persons meet
Unless they both invite
A third person to join,
Far away he must remain.
Good manners will always,
Bring in excellent results,
If one follows the same,
He'll earn a good name.
***
70/06. குறிப்பறிந்து காலம் கருதி வெறுப்பில
வேண்டுப வேட்பச் சொலல்.
70/06. Before talking to a King, one must see his mood and time
and he must tell him softly in clear words.
***
Akshay: There is mood and time
For everyone and everything
And one must observe this.
Dhiraj: A King may be in a dull mood,
To talk to him then, it is no good,
At what time, he'll be free,
This one also, one has to see.
When one says something
In person to the King,
Let him tell in clear words
Without confusing his mind.
A King also is made
Of flesh and blood,
Any mistake, he may commit,
It's minister's duty to set it right.
