કાગા સબ તન ખાઈઓ, ખાઈઓ ચુન ચુન માંસ; દો નૈનાં મત ખાઈઓ, પ્રિય મિલનકી આશ.

kāgā saba tana khāīō, khāīō cuna cuna māṁsa; dō naināṁ mata khāīō, priya milanakī āśa.

Literally: O crow, eat my entire body, peck and eat all my flesh; but do not eat my two eyes, for they still hope to see my beloved.
What it means: Even in death or extreme suffering, a lover's deepest desire is to catch one final glimpse of their beloved.
