Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya-Parts1-2

144 Barahin-e-ahmadiyya
He abides by justice—closing his eyes to everyone,
And does not care if, for the Friend, he lives or dies.
The torrent of greed, avarice and temptation,
Lasts so long as one is blind;
But when the inner eye is opened, even a little,
One becomes totally disinclined towards greed.
O You, who give long rein to your greed,
Why do you not curb your ego.
The wealth of life decreases every moment,
But all you think of is wealth and property.
Your ties of kith and kin are full of deception,
Have you cut your ties with God for their sake!
All of them are bent upon taking your life,
At times they kill you peacefully; and at times
through combat.
Cursed are the relations that cut you off,
From the True Friend.
