“Lord, if you are sandalwood, I am water;with the fragrance in all parts of my body.
Lord, if you are a cloud, I am a peacock;looking for you like the Chakor bird for the moon.
Lord, if you are a lamp, I am the wick;with the light burning day and night.
Lord, if you are a pearl, I am the thread;together like gold and suhaga.
Lord, you are the Master and I servant;thus is the devotion of Ravidas.”
“The company I keep is wretched and low,and I am anxious day and night;my actions are crooked,and I am of lowly birth.”
~ Saint Ravidas
