O my companion, worldly comfort is illusion,  
  As soon you get it, it goes.  
  I have chosen the indestructible for my refuge,  
  Him whom the snake of death will not devour.  
  My beloved dwells in my heart all day,  
  I have actually seen that abode of joy.  
  Meera's lord is Hari, the indestructible.  
  My lord, I have taken refuge with you, your maidservant.
Mira Bai, in Saints of India: Mirabai, p. 251
