chakki chal rahi, kabira baitha royi
dono pud ke bich mein
to saajha na nikle koi
chakki chal rahi, kabira baitha joyi
khoonta pakado nij naam ka
to saajha nikle jo soyi

chhod ke mat jaao
ekli re bannjara re banjara re
chhod ke mat jaao
ekli re bannjara re, banjara re
haan door desh re hai maamla
ab jaago pyaara ho.

apna saaheb ne mahal banayi
banjara re, banjara re
apna saaheb ne mahal banayi
banjara re, banjara re
haan.gehri gehri maahe bin bajai
banjara ho
chhod ke mat jaao
ekli re bannjara re, banjara re
haan door desh re hai maamla
ab jaago pyaara re
apna saaheb ji maang manayi
apna saaheb ji maang manayi
banjara re
han.phool bhari layi chhab re
banjara ho

kahat kabira, kahat kabira
kahat kabira, kahat kabira
aharmiaas ko sant amrapur maalna
banjara ho
chhod ke mat jaao
ekli re bannjara re, banjara re
haan door desh re hai maamla
ab jaago pyaara re
ab jaago pyaara re
ab jaago pyaara re

The mill grinds on, Kabir weeps a sound,
Between the hulls, no kernel can be found.
The mill grinds on, Kabir, weary, sees,
Cling to the Name, the essence of ease.

Do not leave, do not forsake,
Alone, O Traveler, your journey's stake.
Do not leave, do not forsake,
Alone, O Traveler, for your heart’s sake.
A distant land, a veiled affair,
Awake, Beloved, and cast off despair.

My Lord has built a palace grand,
O Traveler, in this promised land.
My Lord has built a palace fair,
O Traveler, beyond compare.
Deep within, the flute's song cries,
O Traveler, beneath the skies.
Do not leave, do not forsake,
Alone, O Traveler, your fate to make.
A distant land, a veiled affair,
Awake, Beloved, and cast off despair.
My Lord fulfills each heart's desire,
My Lord fulfills, setting hearts afire.
O Traveler, a basket blooms,
O Traveler, dispelling glooms.

Kabir speaks, Kabir’s wisdom rings,
Kabir speaks, as the true truth sings.
The humble saint, a garland takes,
O Traveler, for God’s own sakes.
Do not leave, do not forsake,
Alone, O Traveler, the life you make.
A distant land, a veiled affair,
Awake, Beloved, and cast off despair.
Awake, Beloved, and rise from sleep.
Awake, Beloved, and secrets keep.
