In this video has both Tamil and English version of Thirukkural from Part I Virtue, section - Excellence of Rain

PART I. VIRTUE
 
  1.1.3. The Greatness of Ascetics
21. The settled rule of every code requires, as highest good,
Their greatness who, renouncing all, true to their rule have stood.
The end and aim of all treatise is to extol beyond all other excellence, the greatness of those who,
while abiding in the rule of conduct peculiar to their state, have abandoned all desire.

22. As counting those that from the earth have passed away,
'Tis vain attempt the might of holy men to say.
To describe the measure of the greatness of those who have forsaken the two-fold desires, is like
counting the dead.
