Vemana Poetry:

Gangi govu paalu garitadainanu chaalu
Kadivedainanemi kharamu paalu
Bhakti kalugu koodu pattedainanu chaalu
Viswadhaabhiraama, Vinura Vema
A ladleful of a Sacred cow's milk is enough
Of what worth is even a potful of donkey's milk
Even a little food given with respect is sumptuous
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!
Anuvu gani chota Nadhikulamanaradu
Kochmayina nadiyu kodava gadu
konda addamandu knochami undada
Viswadhaabhiraama, Vinura Vema
When it is not our place or time, we cannot win
You have not become small because of this
Dont you know the hill looks like small in a mirror
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!

About Vemana

Reddy Community has the unique previlege that "YOGI VEMANA" was from that community. He renounced all the worldy pleasures, became a "YOGI" wandering about with a loin cloth. Life had taught him many lessons and he began to put all these in beautiful Telugu verses known as "Vemana sathakam" to enlighten the public. His verses are so terse, down-to-earth and simple to understand. These verses carry truths which make the life of an individual really sublime. He never wrote them sitting in one place. He went on composing extemporarily as and when a situation arose. He is popularly known as "YOGI VEMANA" and "PRAJAKAVI VEMANA". Therefore to show our gratitude to that great soul the trust is named after him as "YOGI VEMANA EDUCATIONAL AND WELFARE TRUST".
