Bhajo Re Bhaiya

Bhajo Re Bhaiya
bhajo re bhaiya
raam govind hari

jap tap saadhan
kacchu nahi laagat
karchat nahi ghatari

santat sampat
sukh ke kaaran
jaa so bhool pari

raam naam ko
sumiran kar le
sir pe maut khadi

kahat kabira
raam na jaa mukh
taa mukh dhool pari

Translation
sing o brother
raam govind hari

it needs no chanting, no penance, no practice
it doesn't even cost you anything

wealth and progeny
are only for happiness
it makes one forget

remember the name of raam
don't wait for your death

kabir says,
the tongue that doesn't know raam
is a tongue full of dust
