Kabeer, nothing is mine within myself. Whatever there is, is Yours, O Lord.

If I surrender to You what is already Yours, what does it cost me? ||203||

Kabeer, repeating, "You, You", I have become like You. Nothing of me remains in myself.

When the difference between myself and others is removed, then wherever I look, I see only You. ||204||

Kabeer, those who think of evil and entertain false hopes

- none of their desires shall be fulfilled; they shall depart in despair. ||205||

Kabeer, whoever meditates in remembrance on the Lord, he alone is happy in this world.

My pre-ordained primal destiny has now been revealed. ||207||

I have not meditated on the Lord and my account is still pending, and now, the moment of my death has come! ||208||

Fifth Mehl:

Kabeer, the mortal is a barking dog, chasing after a carcass.

By the Grace of good karma, I have found the True Guru, who has saved me. ||209||

Fifth Mehl:

Fifth Mehl:

Kabeer, no one belongs to me, and I belong to no one else.

The One who created the creation - into Him I shall be absorbed. ||214||

Kabeer, the flour has fallen into the mud; nothing has come into my hands.

That which was eaten while it was being ground - that alone is of any use. ||215||

Kabeer, the mortal knows everything, and knowing, he still makes mistakes.

What good is a lamp in one's hand, if he falls into the well? ||216||

Kabeer, I am in love with the All-knowing Lord; the ignorant ones try to hold me back.

How could I ever break with the One, who owns our soul and breath of life. ||217||

Kabeer, why kill yourself for your love of decorations of your home and mansion?
