I. 121. tohi mori lagan lagâye re phakîr wâ

To Thee Thou hast drawn my love, O Fakir!
I was sleeping in my own chamber, and Thou didst awaken me;
  striking me with Thy voice, O Fakir!
I was drowning in the deeps of the ocean of this world, and
  Thou didst save me: upholding me with Thine arm, O Fakir!
Only one word and no second--and Thou hast made me tear off all
  my bonds, O Fakir!
Kabîr says, "Thou hast united Thy heart to my heart, O Fakir!"
