परब्रम्हीची गोडी नेणती ती बापुड़ी I
संसारसाकडी विष्यभरित II
तुते चुकलीरे जगजीवनरक्षा I
अनुभवाविणं लक्षा न येचि रे कोणा II
जवळी असताचि क्षीर नव्हेसि वरपडा I
रुधिर सेविता गोचिडा जन्म गेला II
दर्दूरा कमळीणी एके ठायीं बिढार I
वास तो मधुकर घेऊनि गेला II
मधुमक्षिया मोहोळ रचिता रातदिवस I
भाग्यवंत रस घेवोनि गेला II
शेळीस घातली उसाची वैरणी I
घेऊ नेणे घणी त्या रसाची II
नामा म्हणे ऐसी चुकली बापुड़ी I
अमृत सेविता फुडी चवी नेणे II

It says ,
" Our worldly life is a wonderful medley of sorrow and happiness. But a pilgrim on the journey of Self Realisation experiences only Eternal Bliss which is ecstasy from within. In this composition Saint Namdev has elucidated this thought. He says ,
Being naive to the reflective religious thought , One remains in the bondage of the senses , which is the root cause of most of the miseries faced in day to day life. The veil of ignorance blocks our mind from thinking of the existence of the Supreme Lord who cares for well being of all. The Divine is the order out of chaos. It is never hypothetical , but a very pragmatic experience. The Seeker of Supreme Self experiences the Divine presence all around him.
A gadfly (गोचिड), remains stuck near the udder (आचळ), of cow. Despite being in its proximity , it is unaware of sweetness of milk. It spends its life force in sucking only the blood. This beautiful analogy depicts that for One blinded by ignorance , the worldly things seem to be more reliable than the Supreme Lord who is the most reachable.
In another analogy Saint Namdev says ,
A frog and a lotus flower reside in the murky pond. A beetle is enticed by the alluring aroma of the lotus flower , but the frog is unaware of seeking enjoyment of the fragrance.
A honey bee spends it's lifetime to make honey in a beehive. But all its efforts go in vain as soon as the blessed One takes away the readymade honey.
A goat may eat raw sugarcane but it is unaware of relishing the sweetness of sugarcane juice.
Being unaware of is unpardonable especially when One is unable to seek Supreme Divine despite being born as human. Only human birth is blessed with a boon of a reflective thought ,which is vital for the journey of Self Realisation.. "
