Kabir Das Ji ke Dohe : Kabira Kiya Kutch Na Hote Hai, Ankiya Sab Hoye



Kabira Kiya Kutch Na Hote Hai, Ankiya Sab Hoye
Jo Kiya Kutch Hote Hai, Karta Aur Koye

Translation

On Kabir's saying nothing happens , What I don't do does come to pass
If anything happens as if my doing, It is done by someone else

Meaning

All things happen as per Gods wish, it just seems that we are doing them.




Jyon Naino Mein Putli, Tyon Maalik Ghat Mahin
Moorakh Log Na Janhin, Baahar Dhudhan Jahin

Translation


Like the pupil is in the eyes , Your God lives inside you,
The ignorant don't know this, they search Him on the outside

MeaningGod is within, the ignorant look for Him on the outside.




Jab Tun Aaya Jagat Mein, Log Hanse Tu Roye
Aise Karni Na Kari, Pache Hanse Sab Koye

Translation


When you came in to this world , Everyone laughed while you cried
Don't do such work, That they laugh when you are gone

Meaning
Do good work.




Pehle Agan Birha Ki, Pachhe Prem Ki Pyas
Kahe Kabir Tub Janiye, Naam Milan Ki Aaas

Translation


First the pain of separation, then the thirst for Love
Says Kabir, only then will you know Joy of the Union.

Meaning
First the pain of separation, then love. Only from the pain of separation do we feel the pangs of love. There is then hope of union. This is the story of life - the lovers meeting, separating, the pangs of love and the urge for union and the eventual union. In Sufi tradition it is a reflection of man and God - realization of the separation from God, the pangs of love and urge for union with God, and the eventual joy of union.
