अंतकाळी मी परदेशी I
ऐसे जाणोनि मानसी II
म्हणोनिया हृषिकेशी I
शरण मी तूज आलो II
नवमास गर्भवासी I
कष्ट जाले त्या मातेसी II
ते निष्ठुर जाली कैसी I
अंती दूर राहिली II
जीवी बाळाची आवड I
मुखी घालुनी करी कोड II
जेव्हा लागली यमवोढ I
तेव्हा दूरी राहिली II
बहिणी बंधुचा कळवळा I
ते तू जाणसी रे दयाळा II
जेव्हा लागली यमशृंखला I
तेव्हा दूरी राहिली II

          - संत नामदेव


It says ,
" We are not everlasting. One day the blood won't flow so gladly and we will get still. We were born alone in this world , so we will exit alone. Our journey is all alone from beginning to end. Our physical body is but a bubble on the surface of a great river. A bubble forms and disappears instantly, without even bothering the flow of the river. In this composition Saint Namdev has reminded himself of this cardinal truth that One must always be aware of death , as it is the certainty in this most uncertain world. Nevertheless when it's footsteps sound , the affections and bonds betray the most and One feels utter vulnerable as the dark silhouette of death looms over. And hence Saint Namdev implores One to surrender completely to Supreme Lord Shri Ram  as this is the only way to escape unscathed from this  gruesome ordeal. He says ,
He is well aware of the truth that as he will tend to the end of his life journey , he will be all alone once again. And hence O Lord Vitthal , please let me reside in the shadow of your kindness.
A child grows in the safety and comfort of mother's womb for nine months. The sacrifices and hardships of the mother in the childbirth  are unparalleled in all respects. But even she cannot rescue her child at the time of death. In the end , when life betrays , One is all alone in his rendezvous with death , the ultimate reality. "
