sā.īñ ke sañg sāsur aa.ī
sañg nā rahī svaad nā jānyau gayo joban sup nekī naa.ī
sakhī-sahelī mañgal gaave sukh-dukh māthe hardī chaḌhā.ī
bhayau vivāh chalī bin dulhan baaT jaat samdhi samjhā.ī
kahae 'kabīr' ham gaune jaibe tarat kant lae tuur bajā.ī
Came with my Lord to my Lord's home: but I lived not with Him and I tasted Him not, and my youth passed away like a dream.
On my wedding night my women-friends sang in chorus, and I was anointed with the unguents of pleasure and pain:
But when the ceremony was over, I left my Lord and came away, and my kinsman tried to console me upon the road.
Kabir says, I shall go to my Lord's house with my love at my side; then shall I sound the trumpet of triumph!
sain ke sang sasur aai
sang na rahi swad na jaanyau gayo joban sup neki nai
sakhi-saheli mangal gawe sukh-dukh mathe hardi chaDhai
bhayau wiwah chali bin dulhan baT jat samdhi samjhai
kahae 'kabir' hum gaune jaibe tarat kant lae tur bajai
