கூத்தாட்டு அவைக்குழாத் தற்றே பெருஞ்செல்வம்
போக்கும் அதுவிளிந் தற்று.
Kooththaattu Avaik Kuzhaath Thatre / Perunjelvam Pokkum Adhuvilin Thatru
English
Like a drama-crowd wealth gathers Like passing show its pride too goes
— As crowds round dancers fill the hall, is wealth's increase;Its loss, as throngs dispersing, when the dances cease
The acquisition of wealth is like the gathering together of an assembly for a theatre; its expenditure is like the breaking up of that assembly
