Maha Kavi ,Bharathi was a national poet who wrote on varied themes in Tamil and through his poems he triggered the spirit of freedom and real Indian nationalism.I do not know how may indians are aware of his contributions.One thing is sure enough , like Gandhi,Ambedkar Periyar and Patel, he is a great social reformer and will be relevant for all times .
Depending upon time, mood and my ability to translate ,I will strive to convey the poetic thrust Of the great poet Bharathiyar for the global audience.
On the river ganges, in a moon lit night
In the pleasant company of young keralite girls,
singing song in the beautiful sweet Telugu language.
we shall row our boats and make it a routine to play.
Our poet was for real integration...I have just taken a single stanza which was not difficult for me translate..
Among the impending work translating Bharathi will have a priority...I will attempt the possible.
