Religion
Men's Reviling
Translated by Nicol Macnicol (1919) · From Psalms of Maratha Saints (1919)
Religion
Vile, vile of conduct me they call,
Me, servant of the soul of all.
Vile is my Ganga next they say,
Which sweeps my sins all, all away.
Vile is my friend who all for nought
Cleanses my robe of every spot.
Yea, vile my guru, he who hath
Made great Janardan's Ekanath.
