77
Let those who die, die such a death, that they shall never have to die again. ||29||
1366
:
78
Kabeer, it is so difficult to obtain this human body; it does not just come over and over again.
1366
:
79
It is like the ripe fruit on the tree; when it falls to the ground, it cannot be re-attached to the branch. ||30||
1366
:
80
Kabeer, you are Kabeer; your name means great.
1366
:
81
O Lord, You are Kabeer. The Jewel of the Lord is obtained, when the mortal first gives up his body. ||31||
1366
:
82
Kabeer, do not struggle in stubborn pride; nothing happens just because you say so.
1366
:
83
No one can erase the actions of the Merciful Lord. ||32||
1366
:
84
Kabeer, no one who is false can withstand the Touchstone of the Lord.
1366
:
85
He alone can pass the test of the Lord's Touchstone, who remains dead while yet alive. ||33||
1366
:
86
Kabeer, some wear gaudy robes, and chew betel leaves and betel nuts.
1366
:
87
Without the Name of the One Lord, they are bound and gagged and taken to the City of Death. ||34||
1366
:
88
Kabeer, the boat is old, and it has thousands of holes.
1366
:
89
Those who are light get across, while those who carry the weight of their sins on their heads are drowned. ||35||
1366
:
90
Kabeer, the bones burn like wood, and the hair burns like straw.
1366
:
91
Seeing the world burning like this, Kabeer has become sad. ||36||
1366
:
92
Kabeer, do not be so proud of your bones wrapped up in skin.
1366
:
93
Those who were on their horses and under their canopies, were eventually buried under the ground. ||37||
1366
:
94
Kabeer, do not be so proud of your tall mansions.
1366
:
95
Today or tomorrow, you shall lie beneath the ground, and the grass shall grow above you. ||38||
1366
:
96
Kabeer, do not be so proud, and do not laugh at the poor.
1366
:
97
Your boat is still out at sea; who knows what will happen? ||39||
1366
:
98
Kabeer, do not be so proud, looking at your beautiful body.
1366
:
99
Today or tomorrow, you will have to leave it behind, like the snake shedding its skin. ||40||
1366
:
100
Kabeer, if you must rob and plunder, then plunder the plunder of the Lord's Name.
1366
:
101
Otherwise, in the world hereafter, you will regret and repent, when the breath of life leaves the body. ||41||
1366
:
102
Kabeer, there is no one born, who burns his own home,
1366
:
103
and burning his five sons, remains lovingly attuned to the Lord. ||42||
1366
:
104
Kabeer, how rare are those who sell their son and sell their daughter
1366
:
105
and, entering into partnership with Kabeer, deal with the Lord. ||43||
1366
:
106
Kabeer, let me remind you of this. Do not be skeptical or cynical.
1366
:
107
Those pleasures which you enjoyed so much in the past - now you must eat their fruits. ||44||
1366
:
108
Kabeer, at first, I thought learning was good; then I thought Yoga was better.
1366
:
109
I shall never abandon devotional worship of the Lord, even though people may slander me. ||45||
1366
:
110
Kabeer, how can the wretched people slander me? They have no wisdom or intelligence.
1366
:
111
Kabeer continues to dwell upon the Lord's Name; I have abandoned all other affairs. ||46||
1366
:
112
Kabeer, the robe of the stranger-soul has caught fire on all four sides.
1366
:
113
The cloth of the body has been burnt and reduced to charcoal, but the fire did not touch the thread of the soul. ||47||
1366
:
114
Kabeer, the cloth has been burnt and reduced to charcoal, and the begging bowl is shattered into pieces.
1366
:
115
The poor Yogi has played out his game; only ashes remain on his seat. ||48||
