Poems

chinta chiti nibariye, phiri boojhiye na koi indri pasar mitaiye, sahaji milaiga soi

bade badaai na karain, bade na bolain bol rahiman heera kab kahain, laakh taka hai mol

Where the Mind Is Without Fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth;

Kabir kaha garbiyau, dehi dekhi surang bichhadiyan milibau nahin, jyun kaanchli bhuvang

jaisi parai so sahi rahai, kahi Rahim yah deh dharti hi par parat sab, seet ghaam aru meh

chalau chalau sab koi kahai, mohin andesa aur sahib soon parcha nahin, e jaahinge kis thaur

kheera sir te kaatiye, maliye lon lagaai rahiman karue mukhan ko, chahiyat yahi sajaai

Kabir hari ras yaun piya, baaki rahi na thaaki paaka kalas kumbhar ka, bahuri na chadhai chaaki

rahiman chup hvai baithiye, dekhi dinan ko pher jab neeke din aaihain, banat na lagi hai der

maya mui na man mua, mari mari gaya sarir aasa trishna na mui, yon kahi gaya Kabir

rahiman nij man ki bitha, man hi raakhau goy suni athilaihain log sab, baanti na laihain koy

herat herat he sakhi, rahya Kabir heraai boond samani samad mein, so kat heri jaai

jo Rahim uttam prakriti, ka kari sakat kusang chandan bish byaapat nahin, lapte rahat bhujang

sukhiya sab sansar hai, khaavai aru sovai dukhiya daas Kabir hai, jaagai aru rovai

bigri baat banai nahin, laakh karau kin koi rahiman bigre doodh ke, mathe na maakhan hoi

gur govind tau ek hai, dooja yahu aakar aapa met jeevat marai, tau paavai kartar

rahiman paani raakhiye, bin paani sab soon paani gaye na oobarai, moti maanush choon

jab main tha tab hari nahin, ab hari hain main nahin sab andhiyara miti gaya, jab deepak dekhya maahi

taruvar phal nahin khaat hain, sarvar piyahin na paan kahi Rahim par kaaj hit, sampati sanchahin sujaan

pothi padhi padhi jag mua, pandit bhaya na koi ekai akhar peev ka, padh su pandit hoi

rahiman dekhi baden ko, laghu na deejiye daari jahan kaam aavai sui, kaha karai tarvaari

aisi bani boliye, man ka aapa khoye auran ko sheetal kare, aapahu sheetal hoye

rahiman dhaga prem ko, mati toro chatkaai toote se phiri na milai, mile gaanthi pari jaai

kaal kare so aaj kar, aaj kare so ab pal mein pralay hoyegi, bahuri karega kab
