தமிழை தேடுகிறேன்!!!


வெள்ளி நிலவும்
வைர நட்சத்திரமும்
பூமியை வசியப்படுதியிருக்கும் இவ்வேளையில்
நான் விட்டதை பார்க்கிறேன்
விடியலை நாடுகிறேன்
என்னிடமிருந்து தொலைந்துபோன அன்புத் தோழி
தமிழை தேடுகிறேன்!!!

It means...

At this time...
When the silver moon
And diamond stars have evaded the Earth
I am staring at the ceiling
Hoping for the dawn...
And searching for my long lost friend, Tamil!

PS: As I sat with MS-Word open tonight with thinking glasses on and the desire to draw some awesome theme to write, I was suddenly stuck with a reality... 

The reality hit me on my face and then started laughing at me...
And I was filled with guilt... 

In spite of being a person who takes great pride on not forgetting Kannada for the past though I have left Karnataka when I was only 7years old, how did I manage to forget a language – Tamil – that was a part of my daily life until the last 7 years? I felt bad.

And as I stared at the ceiling, out of nowhere, words started flowing...
And I knew I should write in Tamil too...

So dear readers who can’t follow Tamil, bear with me...
This will be once in a while...

But guess what...
I am in cloud nine now...
So happy....
As if I have found my lost love!!!

And here begins a new theme in my blog...
My search for my lost friend - Tamil
After all, தேடல்கள்means "Searchings"
