baabaa man ki aankhe khol
man ki aankhe khol baabaa

duniyaa kyaa hai ek tamaashaa
chaar dino ki jhuthi aashaa
pal me tolaa pal me maashaa
gyaan taraazu leke haath me tol sake to tol
baabaa man ki

matalab ki sab duniyaadaari
matalab ke sab hai sasaari
jag me teraa ho hitakaari
tan man kaa sab jor lagaakar naam hari kaa bol
baabaa man ki

Open the eyes of the heart, Baba,
Open the eyes of the heart.

What is this world but a fleeting play,
A false hope of but four days' stay?
Weighing moments, light or deep, they sway,
With wisdom's scales in hand, can you hold and weigh?
Baba, the heart's...

All this world is of selfish design,
Bound by meaning, a tangled twine.
May your deeds bring goodness divine,
With body and mind, chanting God's holy name, you must enroll.
Baba, the heart's...
