aaj din maiñ jā.ūñ balihārī
pītam sāheb aay mere pahunā ghar-āñgan lage suhaunā
sab pyālā lage mañgal gāyan ye gagan lakhi chhabi man-bhāvan
charan pakhārūñ nihārūñ tan-man-dhan sab sā.īñ par vārūñ
jā din paa.e piyā dhan soī hot anand param sukh hoī
surat lagī satt-nām kī aasā kahaiñ 'kabīr' dāsan ke daasā
This day is dear to me above all other days, for to-day the Beloved Lord is a guest in my house;
My chamber and my courtyard are beautiful with His presence.
My longings sing His Name, and they are become lost in His great beauty:
I wash His feet, and I look upon His Face; and I lay before Him as an offering my body my mind, and all that I have.
What a day of gladness is that day in which my Beloved, who is my treasure, comes to my house!
All evils fly from my heart when I see my Lord.
My love has touched Him; my heart is longing for the Name which is Truth.
Thus sings Kabir, the servant of all servants.
aaj din main jaun balihaari
pitam saheb aay mere pahuna ghar-angan lage suhauna
sab pyala lage mangal gayan ye gagan lakhi chhabi man-bhawan
charan pakhaarun nihaarun tan-man-dhan sab sain par warun
ja din pae piya dhan soi hot anand param sukh hoi
surat lagi satt-nam ki aasa kahain 'kabir' dasan ke dasa
