Kural - 338
Birds fly away, and leave the nest deserted bare;
Such is the short-lived friendship soul and body share
Explanation
The love of the soul to the body is like (the love of) a bird to its egg which it flies away from and leaves empty.
Tamil Transliteration
Kutampai Thaniththu Ozhiyap Pulparan Thatre
Utampotu Uyiritai Natpu.
