Tirrukural, the - Book 3 Hints
1091. Her greedy eyes have a double role-
They kill and cure.
1092. Her stealthy glance is more than half
Love's embrace.
1093. She looked, and dropped her head, and so
Watered the plant of love.
1094. When I look, she bends her eyes:
When I don't, she looks and smiles!
1095. She didn't stare at me, but smiled
And seemed to wink.
1096. Where words are curt, but not the heart,
A wink is as good as a nod.
1097. Words which are bitter, and looks which feign ire
Only mark the seeming-indifferent.
1098. Her pitying smile to my pleading look
Hinted happiness.
1099. To look at each other as if they were strangers
Belongs to lovers alone.
1100. When eyes with eyes commingle
What do words avail?
