Volume : III, Issue : V, June - 2013 THE GRAND ANICUT ACROSS CAUVERY, TIRUCHIRAPALLI: PAST AND PRESENT MODERNIZATION – REVISITEDA.RANJITH Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : How wise our ancestors were to identify
Those all pervading elements five,
Soil, Water, Fire, Air and Space
Towards which now the rich nations race.
Mother East, womb of all life, predominates
Followed by Water sustain all that germinates.
All through my care II handles Water
Only to find I could not master.
On the lap of mother you were air borne
To rush Sanjeevi to save one renown,
Now man has learnt to fly with ease
Can he stand the Wind Power let loose!
So it is with Water too,
Controlled, harnessed showers benefits true;
Water Shakti is too tough to harness
So, we bow down to Thee for guidance.
Desperate though confident Karikala was
When Cauvery suddenly changed is course.
Paying obeisance to Thee we are told
He plunged into action too bold.
You Blessed him build this Anicut Grand
Across mighty Cauvery gushing water and sand,
And stood here to protect it all the time
Infusing confidence in us to maintain it for a while. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : A.RANJITH, (2013).
