Mailee chaadar orhke kaise dwaar tumhaare aa-oo
Hey paawan parmeshwar mere man hee man sharmaa-oo
Too ne mujhko, jag me bhejaa, dekar nirmal kaayaa
Aakar ke sansar me maine, isko daag lagaayaa
Janam janam ki mailee chaddar, ab kyaa daag chhuraa-oo…
Nirmal vaanee, paakar tujhse, naam na teraa gaayaa
Nain mood-kar he Parmeshwar, kabhi na tujhko dhyaayaa
Man veenaa kee taare tootee, ab kyaa geet sunaa-oo
In pairo se chalkar tere, mandir kabhi na aayaa
Jahaa jahaa ho pooja teree, kabhi na sheesh jhukaayaa
He harihar mai haar ke aayaa, ab kyaa haar charhaa-oo…
Explanation
Covering with a dirty shawl, how can I come to your doors? I am very much ashamed. - You sent me in this world with a very clean ‘sheet’. But having come into the world the accumulation of stains began. This staining process which is continuing from birth to birth is now difficult to rectify. - I got a very beautiful voice from Thee, but I never used it to sing your praises. I never closed these eyes, you gave me, to meditate on Thee. Now that the ‘voice is no longer melodious—how can I sing.
I have performed no righteous deed and I have tied my self to the material world. Now I have broken my relationship with this world and I am bound to you alone, for I am unable to move with this weight on my head - With these feet, I never go to places of your worship and / never bow my head with reverence, where your puja is done. What can I offer now when everything is lost?
