CHAPTER 7

மக்கட்ப்பேறு
OFFSPRING


61. பெறுமவற்றுள் யாமறிவது இல்லை; அறிவறிந்த
மக்கட்பேறு அல்ல பிற.
perumavattrul yaamarivadhu illai; arivarindha
makatperu alla pira.

There is no greater blessing than to get understanding children.

62. எழுபிறப்பும் தீயவை தீண்டா; பழிபிறங்காப்
பண்புடை மக்கள் பெறின்.
yezhupirappum theeyavai theendaa; pazhipirangaa
panbudai makkal perin.

No evil will touch upon those who have children of unstained character, (for seven births).

63. தம்பொருள் என்பதம் மக்கள்; அவர்பொருள்
தம்தம் வினையான் வரும்.
thamporul yenbadham makkal; avarporul
thamtham vinaiyan varum.

children are called one's fortune, that comes only through the result of their deeds.

64. அமிழ்தினும் ஆற்ற இனிதே; தம் மக்கள்
சிறுகை அளாவிய கூழ்.
amizhdhinum aattra inidhae; tham makkal
sirukai alaaviya koozh.

The porridge messed up by our children's tiny hands, tastes more sweeter than the nectar.

65. மக்கள்மெய் தீண்டல் உடற்கின்பம்; மற்றவர்
சொற்கேட்டல் இன்பம் செவிக்கு.
makkalmei theendal udarkinbam; mattravar
sorkettal inbam sevikku.

Body delights with the touch of the children and ears delight when they speak.

Thanks sowpar, this idea came to me when our ilites pointed out to add pictures when we were in the 2nd chapter when Usha posted it...
She added pictures to those she had posted and I am following her steps..
