Chaupai Text
गौर सरीर स्याम मन माहीं। कालकूटमुख पयमुख नाहीं॥ सहज टेढ़ अनुहरइ न तोही। नीचु मीचु सम देख न मोही॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
gaura sarīra syāma mana māhīṃ। kālakūṭamukha payamukha nāhīṃ॥ sahaja ṭeṛha anuharai na tohī। nīcu mīcu sama dekha na mohī॥ 4 ॥
Meaning
Outwardly he is fair, but within his heart he is dark. He is poison-faced, not milk-mouthed. By nature he is crooked and does not follow you; he is not as virtuous as you. This lowly one does not regard me as something fearful, like Death itself.
