नैहरवा.-Kabir


नैहरवा हम का न भावे...
साई कि नगरी ...परम अति सुन्दर,
जहाँ कोई जाए ना आवे
चाँद सुरज जहाँ, पवन न पानी,
कौ संदेस पहुँचावै
दरद यह... साई को सुनावै
आगे चालौ पंथ नहीं सूझे,
पीछे दोष लगावै
केहि बिधि ससुरे जाऊँ मोरी सजनी,
बिरहा जोर जरावे
विषै रस नाच नचावे
बिन सतगुरु आपनों नहिं कोई,
जो यह राह बतावे
कहत कबीर सुनो भाई साधो,
सपने में प्रीतम आवे
तपन यह जिया की बुझावे
नैहरवा...

-Kabir

There is none for me at my natal home
My beloved’s town is most beautiful
But, nobody goes there or returns
There is no moon, sun, wind or water
Who will take my message?
Then who will convey my pain to my beloved?

There is no visible path to move forward
and you blame the past for It
How may bride go to the house of her beloved?
Powerful pangs of separation are burning from Inside
Dual reality is fashioning a dance to its tune

There is none other than the Guru who is mine, who can tell me the way

Kabir says,
Listen oh Aspirant!
your beloved will come in a dream-like state
that alone will quench the thirst of your heart
