Kabir, get drunk on love Rid the heart of duality Such a delicate path to tread Why lug a heavy load anymore?
In your sky-dome is an upside-down well Full of the nectar of life!
Speak in hints in grazing fields So that no one should guess No one should hear, no one should know!
I’m rolling about in these waves I don’t know how to swim Take me across…
I ate your fruit, I soiled your leaves I played from branch to branch You burn, and I fly away? You live and love but once!
Scorch the house To make a house arise, yogi Protect it And it's gone!
In this body, the lock In this body, the key In this body, the one who Opens the door
If my beloved is like a rose Then I’m his fragrance If my beloved is like my heart Then I’m his breath
You are the sea, and I the fish I’ll stay immersed in you If you dry up, I’ll die too What would I be without you?
Kabir, this boat is wobbly And the boatmen are inept They got across who were light The heavy ones drowned
Once I went to the court of love Love stripped me of my swagger I went to garner praises from love Love robbed me of my vanity
