Deen te duneeaa dohen bhainaan Tenu aqal naheen samjhendaa hoo

Dohen wich nikaah hike de Tenu sharaa naheen farmendaa hoo

Agg te paanee thaan hike wich Vaasaa naheen karendaa hoo

Doheen jahaaneen unhande mutthaa (Hazrat Bahu ) Jinhan daavaa keta main da hoo

Hazrat Sultan Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe says that 'Doctrine of Faith and the Dunya (World) are as if two real sisters which cannot come in wedlock with same husband. Or, these two things are like water and fire which cannot be kept in same pot. Hence, that person, who is of the People of Dunya (World), he can never be of the People of Faith. That person, who claims that both the Faith and Dunya (World) have been granted to him, his claim is totally wrong as Maulana Room Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe says:

Thoughts of sordid Dunya (World) are like the 'partners of God',

If such thoughts exist, no one can claim to be a Real Believer.

At the end, he says that 'those people have ruined in Both-the-Worlds, who took pride in having Dunya (World) like the Pharaoh who died unaided and considered acquisition of Dunya (World) the aim and purpose of life.
