Love Poems No. 15 : I WILL SING YOUR PRAISE

I WILL SING YOUR PRAISE

Leave  me alone and vanish in air
I will sing your praise.
Forget me till the end of times
I will sing your praise.
Turn me like a snare despised
I will sing your praise
Mock me in power and laugh in glory
I will sing your praise
Hide in heaven or behind the cosmos
I will sing your praise
Till my skin is eaten by moths

I will sing your praise.

ജ്ഞാനപ്പാന

പൂന്താനം നമ്പൂതിരി 


ഇന്നലെയോളമെന്തെന്നറിഞ്ഞീലാ

ഇന്നി നാളെയുമെന്തെന്നറിഞ്ഞീലാ

ഇന്നിക്കണ്ട തടിക്കു വിനാശവു-

മിന്ന നേരമെന്നേതുമറിഞ്ഞീലാ.

കണ്ടു കണ്ടങ്ങിരിക്കും ജനങ്ങളെ-

ക്കണ്ടില്ലെന്നു വരുത്തുന്നതും ഭവാന്‍.

രണ്ടു നാലു ദിനംകൊണ്ടൊരുത്തനെ

തണ്ടിലേറ്റി നടത്തുന്നതും ഭവാന്‍,

മാളികമുകളേറിയ മന്നന്റെ

തോളില്‍ മാറാപ്പു കേറ്റുന്നതും ഭവാന്‍.

അധികാരിഭേദം

കണ്ടാലൊട്ടറിയുന്നു ചിലരിതു

കണ്ടാലും തിരിയാ ചിലര്‍ക്കേതുമേ.

കണ്ടതൊന്നുമേ സത്യമല്ലെന്നതു

മുമ്പേ കണ്ടിട്ടറിയുന്നിതു ചിലര്‍.

മനുജാതിയില്‍ത്തന്നെ പലവിധം

മനസ്സിന്നു വിശേഷമുണ്ടോര്‍ക്കണം.

പലര്‍ക്കുമറിയേണമെന്നിട്ടല്ലോ

പലജാതി പറയുന്നു ശാസ്ത്രങ്ങള്‍.

കര്‍മ്മത്തിലധികാരി ജനങ്ങള്‍ക്കു

കര്‍മ്മശാസ്ത്രങ്ങളുണ്ടു പലവിധം.

ജ്ഞാനത്തിനധികാരി ജനങ്ങള്‍ക്കു

ജ്ഞാനശാസ്ത്രങ്ങളും പലതുണ്ടല്ലോ.

സാംഖ്യശാസ്ത്രങ്ങള്‍ യോഗങ്ങളെന്നിവ

സംഖ്യയില്ലതു നില്‌ക്കട്ടെ സര്‍വ്വവും;

Taize Community, the "Spring of Godliness"
(തെസെ കമ്മ്യൂണിറ്റി ; ഈസ്വരചൈതന്യതിന്റെ നിത്യവസന്തം )



Taize is a village in France which attracts thousands of young people from all round the world every year. The ecumenical community founded by Brother Roger attracts the attention of all peace lovers around the globe, as there is no such place anywhere else .
            Dr. Karickam narrates the history of this great movement which is the fore runner of all ecumenical movements in different parts of the world. Brothers of Taize live in small fraternities among most of the poor nations where they bring the message of love and peace to suffering communities.
            Brother Roger was a great friend of Mother Teresa and they worked together for the betterment of suffering humanity. Taize was successful in building up an example for community living which was a model for many similar movements in different corners.

            The story of Taize is described fully in this book, which was the first of its kind in any Asian language. The book was published by M Y books and released in the year 1988 

Panchatantra Story- The Three Fishes


There were three big fishes living in a lake who were very close friends. All three of them were very different from one another. The first one believed in fate. He thought things cannot be changed and what had to happen will happen no matter what. The second one was intelligent. He thought he knew how to solve a problem if he had one, with his intelligence. The third one was the wise one. It thought long and hard before acting.
So one day, the wise fish was happily playing around in the water, when it over heard a fishermen talking to another. "Look at that one, what a big fish... This lake is full of big fishes like this one. Let us come tomorrow and catch them."
It hurriedly swam to it's friends to tell the news. "Let us get out of this lake before those fishermen come back. A canal I know can take us to another lake," the wise one said.
The intelligent fish said, " I know what to do if the fishermen come and catch me."
The fish which believed in fate said, "Whatever to happen will happen, I was born in this lake and I am not going to leave it."

The wise fish didn't want to risk its life, so he took the canal and went to another lake.
The fishermen came back the next morning and cast their net. The rest of the two friends were caught in it along with many other fishes.
The intelligent fish thought of a way to escape, it acted as if it were dead. The fishermen threw him along with other dead fish back into the lake. But the other fish which believed in fate was still jumping in the net and the fishermen struck him dead.
Story moral: Intelligence wins over might.
