Flood of Passion – Kurunthokai 99
Another gem from Auvviyar of Sangam age. A poet par excellence, most of us know her songs on Adhigaman Neduman Anci. In way some of her poems were prelude to hero build up songs in Tamil cinema.

Isn’t he father and mother – Kurunthokai 93
It is not easy for women especially if the marriage doesn’t work out. Thaliavan has started philandering and he is not allowed to enter the house by Thalaivi. When Panki (Thalaivi’s friend) comes to advice her of not have love quarrels with her husband and asks her to let him in. Thalaivi responds that as husband he should care for her like a father and mother. And feels he isn’t behaving like that, when there is no love how can there be love quarrel is her central question. Sangam literature deals with every facet of love and marital life.

Melt me and fill me – Andal’s Nachiyar Thirumozhi 10.8
By far one of the best love and philosophical poem, I have read in Tamil. It is a surprise to me it matches Sangam love poems but surpasses them here by it deep philosophy.This poem has layers, each passing day I was realizing a new meaning to the poem. Plain vanilla translation would neither emphasize the philosophy of the poem nor the intended meaning of the poem.
