Khan-Paan-Paridhan Mein Jeevan Gayau Sab Biti - Shri Surdas, Sura Sagara

Khan-Paan-Paridhan Mein, Jeevan Gayau Sab Biti.
Jyaun Bit Par-Tiy-Sang Basyau, Bhor Bhaye Bhayi Bhiti.
- Shri Surdas, Sura Sagara

The whole life is wasted in eating, drinking, and worldly pleasures — all went in vain. Just like a sinner who spends the night with another’s wife, and trembles in fear at the break of dawn, so too does the soul, entangled in Maya (illusory world) like an illicit lover, begin to shiver with fear when the dawn of death approaches.
