Kabir: Man Is Sure To Die Poem by Ravi Kopra

Kabir: Man Is Sure To Die



Man is sure to die
But always thinks
Of riches and wealth
And forgets old age and death.

You are vicious, O man!
You blossom like a lotus flower
Seeing your family in happiness
But get envious of others
Seeing them in happiness.
When the messengers of death come
You will not be here for a second.

-Kabir
Translated from Shri Guru Granth Sahib in Punjabi
