Sant Kabir Translation by A.K. Malhotra, in Eating God, A Book of Bhakti

If parroting the name of Rama brought salvation,

Then saying sugarcane should sweeten the mouth,

Saying fire burn the feet,

Saying water slake the thirst,

And saying food would be good as a belch.

If saying money made everyone rich,

There would be no beggars on the street
