Kabir Ke Dohe - 1




A kid likes his father too much. He follows his father and holds on to him. Father gives him some sweets. The kid enjoys the sweets and the father goes away. We should not forget God when we enjoy his favors.

I was searching him. I met him face to face. He is pure and I am dirty. How can I bow at his feet?


If I say that Ram is heavy, this arouses fear in mind. If I say that he is light, this is absurd. I don’t know Ram as I haven’t seen him.


I have seen Ram. Those who have tried to describe him have to repent as they fail at their attempts. I won’t take any trouble to describe him, I will happily sing his virtues.


When I will reach the other shore I will talk about it. I am sailing right now at the middle of the ocean.



I don’t have anything of mine. Whatever I have that belongs to God. If I give him what belongs to him, I deserve no credit for doing something great.


As long as the devotion is conditional it won’t bear any fruits. How can people with attachment get something that is always detached?



In this Kali Age people make many friends. Those who offer their mind to God can sleep without worries.



Kabir works for Ram as a dog works for his Master. Ram’s name is the pearl that Kabir has. He has tied Ram’s chain round his neck and he goes there where Ram takes him.


A man of lust won’t like nectar. He always searches poison. Even if God Shiv himself exhorts a fool, the fool won’t part with his foolishness.
