If you walk up to her right now
And before all eyes quickly bow,
She will you her night's bed allow;
Throughout the night address your slough,
Her lands release for you to plough,
Your rivals warm against a row,
Everything hand you but a dhow,
Because finding one knows not How...
If you walk up to her right now
And before all men act a cow
You're getting a sleek Hausa Cow.
Not in the next hour: "Right now".
It is no debate for sages:
Deserve worshipers their wages.

Sure wish the sun would come out
It raises my spirits with glee and I shout
Perhaps later I hope
Clouds make me mope
Weather sure affects me, a sun worshipper devout

scratching his groin
a worshiper offers food:
the flattered deity
in flowery garbage, holy
water, incense and sweat

An iron trident
Is all I had
As a Sadhu
In a cave by the lake
I worshipped Shiva
And his consorts
As if they were my parents
Sometimes I slept on a rock
By the Sea
Fit for a hermit
My mind was occupied
With worshipping
I forgot myself most of the time
My feet were always
Covered in sand
Until they carried
Me across the river of life
It was the only time
They got clean
And made sense to me

I, a long forgotten tune; you, a melody sweet and bold
How will then our reunion be in this splendid world
One is a jewel in the crown, the other dust –no worth
One is the shinning star in horizon, the other part of earth
How to meet the endless yearnings of my brainless heart
It forsakes all that I urge and I decry its part
Priests and preachers are men of vision; I regard them right
I am a humble worshiper of love; with them, I have no fight
In vain are, the prudence and vision, casting their glow and light
Cloaked in the darkness of ones deeds, life is a moonless night
Darkness is casting its shadow on life, but why Yamin, complain
Love, fragrance and colour fade out and not life-long sustain
