Vemana Satakam - Uppu Kappurambu
Uppu Kappurambu nokka polika nundu
Chooda chooda ruchulu jaada veru
Purushulandu Punya purushulu veraya
Visvadabhirama , Vinura Vema!
or
ఉప్పుఁ కప్పురంబు నొక్కపోలిక నుండు
చూడ చూడ రుచుల జాడ వెఱు
పురుషులందు పుణ్యపురుషులు వెరయా
విశ్వదాభిరామ, వినురవేమ!
చూడ చూడ రుచుల జాడ వెఱు
పురుషులందు పుణ్యపురుషులు వెరయా
విశ్వదాభిరామ, వినురవేమ!
English Translation:
Salt and camphor look alike
With familiarity, the paths of their taste is different
Among men, virtuous people stand apart
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!
Meaning:
Salt and camphor look alike. But they are very different in taste. All men appear similar but the pious ones are different among them.
One must not judge a person by outward appearance alone but must carefully study the conduct of the person and judge his true nature. Wrong judgment of character leads to several difficulties.
