The Lord is like sugar, spilled onto the sand.........

Vaheguruu Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguruu Ji Ki Fateh

This Shabad is by Bhagat Kabeer Ji in Raag Raamkalee on Anng 972

dhuneeaa huseeaar baedhaar jaagath museeath ho rae bhaaee
People of the world, remain awake and aware. Even though you are awake, you are being robbed, O Siblings of Destiny.

nigam huseeaar peharooaa dhaekhath jam lae jaaee 1 rehaao
While the Vedas stand guard watching, the Messenger of Death carries you away. 1Pause

na(n)eeb bhaeiou aaa(n)b aaa(n)b bhaeiou na(n)eebaa kaelaa paakaa jhaar
He thinks that the bitter nimm fruit is a mango, and the mango is a bitter nimm. He imagines the ripe banana on the thorny bush.

naaleeeaer fal saebar paakaa moorakh mugadhh gavaar 1
He thinks that the ripe coconut hangs on the barren simmal tree; what a stupid, idiotic fool he is! 1

har bhaeiou khaa(n)dd raeth mehi bikhariou hasatha(n)ee chuniou n jaaee
The Lord is like sugar, spilled onto the sand; the elephant cannot pick it up.

kehi kameer kul jaath paa(n)th thaj cheettee hoe chun khaaee 2312
Says Kabeer, give up your ancestry, social status and honor; be like the tiny ant - pick up and eat the sugar. 2312
