Kabir ke Dohe · Sakhi
Kabir ke Dohe Doha 198 meaning
jara shvan joban sasa, kal aheree nitta
do bairee bich jhompada, kushal kahan so mitta
जरा श्वान जोबन ससा, काल अहेरी नित्त ।
दो बैरी बिच झोंपड़ा, कुशल कहाँ सो मित्त ॥
Old age is a hound, youth a hare, and Time a hunter always on the prowl. With your hut between two enemies, friend, how can all be well?
What it means
Youth runs, age chases, and time hunts both. That isn't meant to scare us but to wake us up: do the meaningful things now, while you can.How it helps in real life
- Health & body: You keep saying you'll start yoga 'after this project'. Roll out the mat tonight for ten minutes; there's always another project.
- With family: Your parents in Pune are getting older and you visit once a year from Dubai. Book the next trip home today, not someday.
हिंदी में अर्थ
बुढ़ापा कुत्ता है, जवानी ख़रगोश, और काल हमेशा शिकारी बना फिरता है। दो दुश्मनों के बीच झोंपड़ी हो, तो मित्र, कुशल कहाँ?
जवानी भागती है, बुढ़ापा पीछा करता है, और समय दोनों का शिकार करता है। यह डराने के लिए नहीं, जगाने के लिए है, सार्थक काम अभी कीजिए।
