āj kaljug puraṇ thaeo / kufrān chālīyā
Sayyid Imam Shah · 8 verses
Ejī āj kaljug puraṇthayo, Ane satī sat na rākhe koi; Tiyāṅ mindar mindar āpṇe, Ghar ghar ḍāyā hoe
English meaning: O brother! Today Kali Yuga is fully manifest and the pious will not protect their truth. There each one will consider himself clever in his own place of worship and abode.
Ejī tiyāṅ lok nindā bahū karse, Munivar mukhthī na bolere koi; Tamne karshe vīrā ujḷā, Te potānī kamāi khoi
English meaning: O brother! There people will backbite much; O believers! Do not say anything from your mouth. They will clean you and will lose their own earnings.
Ejī evī khari kasoṭī kasāvshe, Te to pūra kas kahevāe; Tiyāṅ khara hashe te ghar jālshe, Ne khoṭā te bhāgī jāe
English meaning: O brother! In this way there will be a real test and (it) will be a complete test. There the true will remain in their homes and the false will run away.
Ejīkhoṭā bhāghse te sahū dekhtā, Te mugtinā phal nahīṅ pāe; E duniyā durijan kāraṇe, Te to kaḍvā indrāṇ phal khāe
English meaning: O brother! Everybody will see the false fleeing; they will not obtain the fruit of salvation. For the sake of this evil world they will eat the bitter fruit of Indrā۬.
Ejī have kshetra nathīre pāṅchmū, Tame rolo karsho kyāeṅ; Sarve vasat khoi kūḍe pāpīe, Jeṇe chhoḍī imamnī bāeṅ
English meaning: O brother! Now there is no fifth field (yuga); where will you go and complain? That false sinner lost everything who forsook the arm of the Imam.
Ejī satpanth vorī gāṅṭhe bāndhiā, Paṇ murakh na jāṇere maram; Ek til sukhne kāraṇe, Teṇe khoyā mugatnā dharam
English meaning: O brother! Having obtained the Satpanth (true path) kept it securely, but the foolish one did not understand its essence. For the sake of a little pleasure he lost the religion of salvation.
Ejīteṇe āpe dozakh samāriyā, Ane bahesht na pāve soi; Be pīr thayā te dozakh paḍyā, Bhāī hāthe amar phal khoi
English meaning: O brother! He prepared (his) hell with his own hands and he will not obtain paradise. Those without a pir (spiritual guide) went to hell. O brother! With his own hands he lost the fruit of immortality.
Ejī e murakh ginān vichārī nav jue, Ane satpanth jevo nathī panth sār; Bhaṇe Sayyad Imām Shāh suṇo munivaro, Bāvā be imānīne paḍe ghaṇī dohelī mār
English meaning: O brother! That foolish one does not contemplate upon the Ginan, and there is no other path like the Satpanth (true path). Sayyid Imam Shah (r.a.) says: Listen O believers! The faithless will be beaten relentlessly.
