ਕਬੀਰ ਸੰਤੁ ਨ ਛਾਡੈ ਸੰਤਈ ਜਉ ਕੋਟਿਕ ਮਿਲਹਿ ਅਸੰਤ ॥

kabeer sant na chhaaddai santee jau kottik mileh asant |

Kabeer, the Saint does not forsake his Saintly nature, even though he meets with millions of evil-doers.

ਮਲਿਆਗਰੁ ਭੁਯੰਗਮ ਬੇਢਿਓ ਤ ਸੀਤਲਤਾ ਨ ਤਜੰਤ ॥੧੭੪॥

maliaagar bhuyangam bedtio ta seetalataa na tajant |174|

Even when sandalwood is surrounded by snakes, it does not give up its cooling fragrance. ||174||
