Bhagwān jevu to koī padārtha nathī, te āpaṇne maḷyā chhe. Ne jeṇe dānt āpyā te chāvavānu nahi āpe? Ne āpaṇā kapāḷmā kāī roṭalā nahi lakhyā hoy? Ne āpaṇe kāī Prabhu vechī khādhā chhe? Māṭe Bhagwān bhūkhyā uṭhāḍe paṇ bhūkhyā suvāḍe nahi. Game tevī rīte paṇ khāvā āpe chhe, ne Prabhu bhajāy te sāru garīb rākhyā chhe. Kadāpi pṛuthvīnu rājya āpyu hot to narakmā paḍī chūkyā hot. Māṭe āpaṇne āpyu nathī. Ne ā deh to patrāvaḷāne ṭhekāṇe chhe, temā lāḍavā jamī levā. Te shu je, ā dehe Bhagwānne maḷī chūkyā pachhī dehne game tem thāo, ne ‘Dāsnā dushman Hari ke’dī hoy nahi, jem karashe tem sukh ja thāshe.’1 Ne amane to het āve chhe te vāt karīe chhīe je, ‘Swāminārāyaṇ'nā nāmno mantra bahu baḷiyo chhe, māṭe bhajan karyā karavu.

Kīrtan Dāsnā dushman Hari ke’dī hoye nahi, Bhāī je kāī karashe te sukh thāshe; Aṇasamaje aṭpaṭu e lāge kharu, Paṇ samazīne juve to satya bhāse... Dās. 1 Bhāī sukhmā Hari kaho kene sāmbharyā, Jo dhan rāj ne parivār pāme; Rājnā sājmā Rāmjī visare, Vaḷī mālnā madnā madmā matta vāme... Dās. 2 Bhāī sansārnā sukh te dukh chhe dāsne, Teh Hari vichārīne nahī ja āpe; Paṇ jaktanā jīv te jukti jāṇe nahi, Aṇachhatā dāsnā doṣh sthāpe... Dās. 3 Bhāī dehtaṇu dukh teh sukh chhe santne, Jo akhanḍ varati vaḷī em rahe; Niṣhkuḷānand e dayā Nāthnī jāṇaje, Je samajyā te to em ja kahe... Dās. 4 [Kīrtan Sār Sangrah: 2/456]
There is no entity like God. We have attained him. He who has given us teeth, will he not give us something to chew? Are we not destined to get food? And have we given up God? (No.) So, God awakens us hungry, but does not send us to sleep hungry. He will give us food in any way possible. Also, he has kept us poor so we can worship him. Maybe if he had given us sovereignty over the world, we would have already fallen into hell. Therefore, he has not given it to us. ‘Dāsnā dushman Hari ke’di hoy nahi, jem karshe tem sukh ja thāshe.’ That is, “God can never be the enemy of his devotees. Whatever he does will result in happiness for the devotees.”
