Arabic text

وقيل أنه عاش مائة وعشرين سنة ولم يسقط من فيه سن ولا ضرس. وقال بعضهم: رأيته وقد بلغ الثمانين تزف غروبه. وكان كلما سقطت له ثنية تنبت له أخرى مكانها. وهو من أحسن الناس ثغرا.

Translation

It is said that Nabigha Jodi lived for 120 years without losing any of his teeth. A person says that his teeth were intact till he was eighty; when he lost a set of teeth, another one grew in its stead. He was best with regard to teeth.

Translation: Sayyid Athar Husain S. H. Rizvi — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
