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…

Oh my dear friend, whom should I love?
Keep the company of pure-hearted ones
Keep the company of clean-hearted ones

I burnt down my house, yogi
I took up the flaming torch
If you scorch your own house, yogi
Then join me on this walk

In this body, the lock
In this body, the key
In this body, the one who
Opens the door

Sweetheart, dear girl
Wake up your beloved
He sleeps a deep, forgetful sleep
Shake him awake!

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

Fearlessly, I'll sing
The praises of the formless
Reality beyond description
