Enough Evil In Us All
Looking for world's vile and wicked,
I found no one so crooked;
When I delved in my own within,
No one than me was more mean!

Here is the original doha, called a couplet of Kabeer, which actually is a quatrain:
Bura jo dekhan main chala, bura naa milya koye
Jo munh khoja apnaa, to mujhse bura naa koye
We always look far and wide for the evil, assuming that we are always fine.
But if we put a mirror in front of us we will soon find the truth that we are no less an evil.
