In that pool, people have made their homes, but the water there is as hot as fire!

In your mind, you do not remember the One Lord-you fool!
12
:
9
You have forgotten the Lord; your virtues shall wither away. ||1||Pause||
12
:
10
I am not celibate, nor truthful, nor scholarly. I was born foolish and ignorant into this world.
