Tigers, who made life heavy until the end
Tigers, who made life heavy until the end
through the liberation war,
through the fearless sacrifice of death!
In the ears of time
your name
On the foreheads of ages
your name
In the faces of tomorrow’s
children
Every flower will tell
your fragrance of
your life
To the faces of tomorrow´s children
Tomorrow’s dawn in Eelam
The warmth of your life
will be fused
in the rays of longing
The dust of treachery
Tigers burned it!
Empty cyanide bottles
shoulder-mounted rifles
young blood that has not yet dried
Above all
your life, death
and liberation as symbols
will be weighted in the lines of history!
Salute to the heroes
– Poet Ingulab
(Translation by Tamilpriya)
