Ek dui hui toh unhe samjhaoo re,
Kehi Samjhaoo, Sab Jag Andha re,
Kahat Kabir Suno bhai sadho,
Ek din jana hain doosre ke khanda re.....
For folks who cannot understand it intrinsically, the beauty might be lost by a hawkish translation....but here goes.
If it was just one or two (of them), then I might still attempt to drive sense into them, but how many people do I show the light too....there is a world full of blind people out there....(essentially its a hopeless task).
Listen to Kabir and remember this, my friends,(who are drowned in piety), whatever you do, however you live, eventually we all have to depart on the shoulders of others ( a reference to the Asian tradition of lifting the dead on their shoulders).
