In plain words
Slander me, slander me, let people go on slandering me. Slander is truly dear to his servant. Slander is my father, slander is my mother. *(refrain)* If there is slander, one goes to Baikuṇṭh. The treasure of the Nām is settled in the mind. When slander comes, the heart inside is clean. The slanderer is washing my clothes. Whoever slanders me is my friend. My mind stays with the slanderer. The real slanderer is the one who holds the slander back. It is my life that the slanderer longs for. The slander they give me is love, it is affection. Slander is what carries me across. To Kabīr, his servant, slander is the best of it. The slanderer has drowned, and I have crossed to the far shore.
