Culture diffuses by osmosis.

Tamils settled in Kerala

Feel shy to speak Tamil

And want to hide their race

From their tongue and looks.

.

Tamil Brahmins proudly use it.

They keep it as their mother tongue.

They speak, sing and dance in Tamil,

Generation after generation.

Tamils, save Brahmins, are held as black.

In a culture, the inferior dissolves in the superior.
