Ek Oankar Akal Sahai

gaibaan haivaan haraam kustanee murdaar bakhoraa-ay.

Like a goblin, or a beast,Forbiddan, they kill and eat the carcasses


Das can explain it better now.As he had to re study Grammer book of modern Farsi for that.


It is from old farsi or Kadeemee Farsi


Like Iran is a noun and after adding ee or i we make Irani an adjective.


so by adding kustan also a tpye of noun meaning kiling with ee we make an adjective kustanee or killer.


So it must be read as such.


(oh) Ghost(!) (Oh) beast (!) Forbiidan killer(Go and) Eat dead(its an order).


So as yet eating is not done.And no killing of animal is done but a killer who do senseless killling which is forbbidan is eqauted with animal or ghost and his deeds are equal to eating dead.
