Excellent stuff!
The most notable thing is Sri Velceru Narayana Rao's translation.
Sri VNR's translation is better than Jayaprabha's original in my opinion.
Especially, the last 4 lines are like thorns! I have no adequate vocabulary
to describe the translator's talent in putting the right words to bring the
same effect. It is just like an excellent photographer taking a picture
which will speak the same thing as the original speaks.
Hats off to Jayaprabha!
Heads, bowed down! Sri Velceru ga'roo!

Translating anything from one to another language is harder than writing
an original piece. I can say that because I make a living, half the time
translating stuff from 4 different languages (not Indian but European).
Translated stuff may look pale to some people - unfortunate, sad, and
a pity.
