“Simple Union” by Kabir…

O seeker, the simple union is best.

Since the day when I met with my Lord,

There has been no end to the sport of our love.

I shut not my eyes, I close not  my ears,

I do not mortify my body; I see with eyes open

And smile and behold his beauty everywhere:

I utter his name, and whatever I see,

It reminds me of him; whatever I do,

It becomes his worship.

The rising and setting are one to me:

All contradictions are solved.

Wherever I go, I move round him.

All I achieve is his service: when I lie down,

I lie prostrate at his feet.

He is the only adorable one to me:

I have none other.

My tongue has left off impure words;

It sings his glory, day and night.

Whether I rise or sit down, I can never forget him,

For the rhythm of his music beats in my ears.

Kabir says: My heart is frienzied

And I disclose in my soul what is hidden.

I am immersed in that great bliss

Which transcends all pleasure and pain.

  1. This is peace the knowledge the knowing of the unknown
    Kabir said-
    जाती ना पूछो साधु की ,पूछ लीजिए ज्ञान ।
    मोल करो तलवार का, पड़ा रहन दो म्यान ॥
    “Ask the saint what he knows not his religion
    value the sword not its case”
