It does not matter if my body is seriously wounded or cut into pieces.
O God! Your slave only fears that Your love may depart.
Your lotus feet are the home of my heart. By drinking the nectar of God’s name, I have found God, who is my wealth.
Prosperity, adversity, worldly love and wealth screen God from man. In them Your servant is not absorbed.
Your slave is bound by the rope of Your love.
Ravidass says, what is the advantage to escape from this rope of Your love?
