are man dhīraj kaahe na dharai
pasu-panchhī jiiv kīT-patañgā sab kī sudh karai
गर्भ-बास meñ ḳhabar letu hai bāhar kyuuñ bisrai
man tū hasan se sāheb ke bhaTkat kaahe phirai
pirītam chhāñḌ aur ko dhārai kāraj ik na sarai
Why so impatient, my heart?
He who watches over birds, beasts, and insects.
He who cared for you whilst you were yet in your mother's womb,
Shall He not care for you now that you are come forth?
Oh my heart, how could you turn from the smile of your Lord and wander so far from Him?
You have left Your Beloved and are thinking of others: and this is why all your work is in vain.

गर्भ-बास mein KHabar letu hai bahar kyun bisrai
man tu hasan se saheb ke bhaTkat kahe phirai

Why so impatient, my heart?
He who watches over birds, beasts, and insects.
He who cared for you whilst you were yet in your mother's womb,
Shall He not care for you now that you are come forth?
Oh my heart, how could you turn from the smile of your Lord and wander so far from Him?
You have left Your Beloved and are thinking of others: and this is why all your work is in vain.
