Kabir Friend Poems

Friend, hope for the Guest while you are alive.
Jump into experience while you are alive!
Think... and think... while you are alive.
What you call 'salvation' belongs to the time before death.
...

Friend, wake up! Why do you go on sleeping?
The night is over— do you want to lose the day
the same way?
...

O friend! hope for Him whilst you live
O friend! hope for Him whilst you live,
know whilst you live, understand whilst you live:
for in life deliverance abides.
...

Oh friend, I love you, think this over
carefully! If you are in love,
then why are you asleep?
