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
