If Mind Murky Remains Poem by Aniruddha Pathak
If Mind Murky Remains
It's like washing-cleaning a skunk
If mind its murky muck retains,
A fish remains in water dunk,
Her stink still as ever remains.

Kabeer is another medieval saint poet. One of his quatrains is taken here for translation (transliteration as under) :
nahāye dhoye kyā bhayā, jo mana maila na jāye,
mīna sadā jalamen rahe, dhoye bāsa na jāye.
