An exercise in translating kural by dsam ( From Adelaide diary)

An excercise in Translating  kural;

Sep rated from husband the lady laments at home afflicted by love ailment known as pasalai and kamam.Our hero there ruminates over  the wealth of pleasure delivered by her when they were together once.
Toddy gives pleasure only to those
who drink but
Kamam intoxicates and make any one
Happy by sheer thinking about it
Small wonder
 kamam is sweeter than toddy.
At various stages of life we pass through many experience and more important relationship that  we will cherish is our love life at a very young age..I was lucky to get my M A degree at 20 and I got married at 22 and became father before I reached 25...Now it takes minimum 30 years to land into a good job and also get a girl/ boy 
Life is at jet speed  In Melbourn I saw people eating the sandwitch lunch while walking  on platform.Do the career oriented youngsters have time to romance and get bliss or get drunk in parties  miss breakfast and say busy boss  when he is called?!

saint valluvar is clear that the girl dear to the heart is the treasure and I had her   for long  ...she has gone to a different land  By just thinking about her and seeing her in the dream I get the bliss...she will goad me to work as she did when she was in physical form.
