मैं अपराधी जन्म का , नख-सिख भरा विकार। तुम दाता दु:ख भंजना , मेरी करो सम्हार॥ 63॥
— Kabir
Meaning
I am a sin of birth, filled with flaw throughout my being. You are the giver of sorrow, please grant me destruction/liberation.
Explanation
This couplet is a profound confession where Kabir describes himself as inherently flawed, carrying sin since birth. The phrase 'nakh-sikh bhara vikar' emphasizes that his imperfection is not superficial but woven into his very being. What makes this so poignant is the paradox: he acknowledges the divine as the source of sorrow, yet turns to that same source for ultimate liberation. This demonstrates Kabir's deep humility and recognition that salvation comes only through divine grace.
