Your command of the English Language is most commendable!!!!!
The actual meaning behind every proverb totally lost in translation.
All the same must say .. I do appreciate your efforts to reach Malayalam proverbs to people who do not read Malayalam. But, please for heaven's sake, the next time you venture into something like this .. please take the assistance of another, to edit your text.

Can anyone please explain the proverb: Eenampechikku marapatti kootu?
I know what the two animals are.
