Kabir Das Sayings

O friend, hope for Him whilst you live, understand whilst you live; for in life deliverance abides.
If your bonds are not broken, whilst living, what hope of deliverance in death?
It is but an empty dream that the soul shall have union with Him because it has passed from the body;
If He is found now, He is found then;
If not, we do but go to dwell in the city of Death.

Sant Kabir

(English Translation by Rabindranath Tagore.)
