Original Poem: Any Lifetime
By: Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi
वह जीवन ऐसा बीता जिसने भगवान न देखा हो
जैसे मृत्य पड़ा था वो या फिर निद्रा से उठा न हो
वह पानी जो प्रदूषित हुआ वह जहर समान हुआ
और वो ज़हर जिसने शुद्ध किया वह पानी समान हुआ
Any lifetime that is spent without seeing the master
Is either death in disguise or a deep sleep.
The water that pollutes you is poison;
The poison that purifies you is water.
