Abhanga 367Confession and Sin

The Sense of Sin

English Translation · I.P. 367

WHAT can a feeble man know about right or wrong? He who is mighty has hidden himself from me. I cry aloud at the door and no one hears me; the house is empty; there is no one at home. If a chance guest comes and you speak kindly to him, do you waste your words ? Tuka says, O holy Hari, such kindness becomes you well. THK BKN8K OF STN

Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
