O, Ruby of Womenfolk!
Tamil original Poet Shantarubi Ambaladiyaal Switzerland English Version Professor Dr SA Sankaranarayanan
1
How Honey Ambrosial Sea
wonders what your fruity heart be!
Learned in Paediatry thy highness
served the world.Boon of it
we had got ; you, birth’s fullness!
Absent though,thy Heart lingers lit
2
Limitless love of home you found;
overcame all hurdle and harm,
you had your sons placed sound;
even stones mellow in thy warm
Mercy-Heart;to you, no one equal
we see;e’er hail you the world shall
3
In amazing acts we still see you!
By grace of intent you did rule
Home and the World. As help due
able were you,inspiring life noble.
Cane sweet in speech,in your view
glowed compassion cool n calm
4
No doll life but females’ pride
Spouse’s fancy thought twice
All done to perfection,pied
beauty of knowhow, divine, nice
by Ammai Appa gifted to guide
as Lady Love you homekept wise
5
In thy memory, with heavy heart
live the rest.Whither is fled
the face, feel of youth in part
is strummed; conch sweet instead
is silent at home; in thy lovely art
we froze!Took you God in dread!
6
You taught how save children;
thy word is joy! You cured, granted
the boon of life to one
and all Parents poor that tended
kids think of you pleased in
heart.Forget Tara Maa who could !
7
In love his hands you held firm;
Spouses’ wed to war, they say.
Offering love profuse in charity
you did win thy household-game.
Though end is sure late or soon ,
you outlive as eternal boon !
