I.82. pani vic min piyasi I LAUGH WHEN I hear that the fish in the water is thirsty: You do not see that the Real is in your home, and you wander from forest to forest listlessly! Here is the truth! Go where you will, to Benares or to Mathura; if you do not find your soul, the world is unreal to you.
এক হাতে ওর কৃপাণ আছে আর এক হাতে হার। ও যে ভেঙেছে তোর দ্বার। আসে নি ও ভিক্ষা নিতে, লড়াই করে নেবে জিতে পরানটি তোমার। ও যে ভেঙেছে তোর দ্বার। মরণেরি পথ দিয়ে ওই আসছে জীবন-মাঝে, ও যে আসছে বীরের সাজে। আধেক নিয়ে ফিরবে না রে, যা আছে সব একেবারে করবে অধিকার। ও যে ভেঙেছে তোর দ্বার।
I.112. sunta nahi dhun ki khabar HAVE YOU NOT heard the tune which the Unstruck Music is playing? In the midst of the chamber the harp of joy is gently and sweetly played; and where is the need of going without to hear it? If you have not drunk of the nectar of that One Love, what boots it though you should purge yourself of all stains? The Kazi is searching the words of the Koran, and instructing others: but if his heart be not steeped in that love, what does it avail, though he be a teacher of men? The Yogi dyes his garments with red: but if he knows naught of that colour of love, what does it avail though his garments be tinted? Kabir says: 'Whether I be in the temple or the balcony, in the camp or in the flower garden, I tell you truly that every moment my Lord is taking His delight in me.'
