sad-gurū soī dayā kari dinhā
taate an chinhār maiñ chīnhā
bin pag chalnā bin par uḌnā binā chūñchā kā chugnā
binā nain kā dekhan-pekhan binā sarvan kā sunñā
chand na suur divas nahiñ rajnā tahāñ surat lau laa.ī
binā ann amrit-ras-bhojan bin jal trishā bujhā.ī
jahāñ haras tahñ pūran sukh hai yah sukh kāsau kahnā
kahaiñ 'kabīr' bal bal satgurū kī dhann sishya kā lahnā
It is the mercy of my true Guru that has made me to know the unknown;
I have learned from Him how to walk without feet, to see without eyes, to hear without ears, to drink without mouth, to fly without wings;
I have brought my love and my meditation into the land where there is no sun and moon, nor day and night.
Without eating, I have tasted of the sweetness of nectar; and without water, I have quenched my thirst.
Where there is the response of delight, there is the fullness of joy. Before whom can that joy be uttered?
Kabir says: The Guru is great beyond words, and great is the good fortune of the disciple.
sad-guru soi daya kari dinha
tate an chinhaar main chinha
bin pag chalna bin par uDna bina chuncha ka chugna
bina nain ka dekhan-pekhan bina sarwan ka sunna
chand na sur diwas nahin rajna tahan surat lau lai
bina ann amrit-ras-bhojan bin jal trisha bujhai
jahan haras tahn puran sukh hai yah sukh kasau kahna
kahain 'kabir' bal bal satguru ki dhann sishya ka lahna
