பிச்சை எடுத்துத்தான் உயிர்வாழ வேண்டும் என்ற நிலை இருந்தால், இந்த உலகைப் படைத்தவன் அங்கும் இங்கும் அலைந்து கெடுவானாக.

பிச்சையெடுத்துதான் சிலர் உயிர்வாழ வேண்டும் என்ற நிலையிருந்தால் இந்த உலகத்தைப் படைத்தவனாகச் சொல்லப்படுபவனும் கெட்டொழிந்து திரியட்டும்

உலகத்தை படைத்தவன் உலகில் சிலர் இரந்தும் உயிர்வாழுமாறு ஏற்படுத்தியிருந்தால், அவன் இரப்பவரைப் போல் எங்கும் அலைந்து கெடுவானாக.

If the Creator of the world has decreed even begging as a means of livelihood, may he too go abegging and perish

This verse from Thiru Kural is a commentary on the harsh realities of life, specifically on the state of poverty and begging. Valluvar, the poet, uses a strong metaphor to express his disdain for a world where some individuals are forced to beg for their survival. In this kural, he states that if the creator of the world has designated begging as a way of life for some people, then the creator himself should experience the suffering of begging and the subsequent downfall. This is a profound expression of empathy towards the underprivileged and a critique of the societal structure that allows such disparity. The poet essentially condemns a world order that necessitates begging as a means of survival. He criticizes the creator for allowing such inequality and hardship to exist. His words serve as a call to action to alleviate such conditions and strive for a world where everyone has access to basic needs without having to degrade themselves. The underlying moral lesson here is the importance of empathy, understanding the struggles of the less fortunate, and the necessity to work towards a more equitable society. This verse highlights the poet's commitment to social justice and his belief in the dignity and worth of every human being.
