Arrival of the Paṇṇai Headman
The beauty of his upper arm adorned with a tied, empty straw rope,
the beauty of his body like a charred ember from a burnt house,
the beauty of his belly shaped like the nest of a weaver bird,
the beauty of his bent, stick-like legs held high,
the beauty of his eyes afflicted by fly-bites and filled with rheum,
the beauty of his strut and haughty pride,
the beauty of his mouth that has never tasted betel nut—
the paṇṇaikkāraṉ appeared and arrived!
