Couplets

These are a few Dohe which we have heard at various points of our lives. Time now to revise them. The good thing is that they are presented with very simple metaphors and we get never bored of them.

Bada Hua To Kya Hua, Jaisa Ped Khajoor,
Panthi Ko Chhaya Nahin, Phal Lagey Ati Door

Pothi Padh Padh Jug Mua, Pandit Bhaya Na Koi,
Dhai Ankhar Prem Ka, Padhey So Pandit Hoye

Kankan Patthar Jori Ke, Masjid Layi Banai,
Ta Chadd Mulla Bang De, Kya Behra Hua Khudai

Aisi Vani Boliye, Man Ka Aapa Khoye
Auron Ko Sheetal Kerey, Apahun Sheetal Hoye

Guru Govind Do-u Khadey Hain, Kakay Lagoon Pain
Balihari Guru Apney, Govind Diyo Batai

Mala Pherat Jug Gaya, Mita Na Man Ka Pher,
Kar Ka Manka Chhor De, Man Ka Manaka Pher

Bura Jo Dekhan Main Chala, Bura Naa Milya Koye
Jo Man Khoja Apnaa, To Mujhse Bura Naa Koye

Sukh Mein Simran Sab Kare, Dukh Mein Kare Na Koye
Jo Dukh Mein Simran Kare, Tau Dukh Kahe Ko Hoye

-Kabir

Jo Rahim Uttam Prakrati, Ka Kar Sakat Kusang,
Chandan Vish Vyapat Nahin, Lipitay Rahey Bhujang

Rahiman Vipida Hoo Bhali, Jo Thoray Din Hoye,
Hit Unhit Eeh Jagat Mein, Jaan Paday Sab Koi

Rahiman Dhaga Prem Ka, Mat Todu Chatkai,
Tootey Phir Se Na Milay, Milay Ganth Padi Jai

Ruthay Sujan Manaiye, Jo Ruthay Sau Baar,
Rahiman Phir Phir Poiye Jo Tootay Tootay Sau Baar

Rahiman Dekh Badein Ko, Laghu Na Dijiye Daar,
Jahan Kaam Awai Sui, Kahan Karey Talwar

-Rahim
