I saved this to my [[Shabad bookmarks]] because I found it interesting how it specifically focuses on kaam, using the word [[ਮਦਨ (Madhan)]] instead. I appreciate ਕੋ ਕੋ ਨ ਬਿਗੂਤੋ ਮੈ ਕੋ ਆਹਿ ॥੧॥, referring to how it says it's something everyone struggles with it. The pangtee ਜਿਨਿ ਗਿਆਨ ਰਤਨੁ ਹਿਰਿ ਲੀਨ ਮੋਰ ॥ is a wonderful metaphor illustrating [[ਮਦਨ (Madhan)]] as a literal thief. **STTM link:** https://sttm.co/s/4240/51391 --- ਇਸੁ ਤਨ ਮਨ ਮਧੇ ਮਦਨ ਚੋਰ ॥ (ਇਸੁ) In this (ਤਨ) body (ਮਨ) and mind (ਮਧੇ) within (ਮਦਨ) lustful desire (ਚੋਰ) thief.
