Says Rahim do not snap ever br the thread of love br once broken, it does not unite br if it does, knots appear. br br Says Rahim do not spurn the trivial br seeing the weighty br when you need a sewing needle br of what use a sword. br br Says Rahim keep your sorrow br to your own heart br others will taunt you br none willing to share. br br Says Rahim a man with no education br wisdom, religion and generosity br an animal without a tail or horns br futile is his birth in this world. br br Says Rahim pleased I am not br being offered ambrosia without respect br better to die with dignity br drinking poison. br br Says Rahim a dilemma indeed br when you speak out the truth br worldly ties break br with lies you don't ever reach God. br br Says Rahim the sun rises with glowing rays br it sets with equal grace br so does a good man br living through ups and downs. br br Body, a paper toy br turns into pulp in a trice br strange, so says Rahim br yet filled with much pride. br br How will the weak ever live br fighting the strong? br Says Rahim like being at war br with the crocodile while in water. br br A tree does not eat its own fruits br no pond drinks up its own water br a good man saves for others' needs br so says Rahim. br br Blessed is the love the fish has for water br lifeless without it br says Rahim a bumble bee is different br hopping flower to flower. br br Blessed is the swamp br insects thrive on br says Rahim so vast the sea br yet everyone comes away thirsty. br br Says Rahim my Lord's image is embedded in my eyes br there is place for none else br like a traveller turning away br from a full caravanserai.
