An old Song on King Maveli goes somewhat like this. When the legendary King Maveli, Once governed over the land, God’s own country, Kerala, All the citizens had equality; And citizens were joyful and cheerful; They were all free from mischief; There was neither worry nor illness, There were no lies, prevailing; There was neither theft nor dishonesty, And no one was false in words either. Measures and weights were right; No one cheated or mistreated. When Maveli, our King, ruled the land, All the people created one caste-less race; And lived harmoniously as one family WILLIAMSJI MAVELI www.mavelinadu.com www.maveliveedu.com williamsji@yahoo.com
