jaisi karni waisi bharni
yahi prabhu ka nyay
boye beej babul ke
to aam kaha se khaye
jo jaisa boye beej, yaha karni ka
jo jaisa boye beej, yaha karni ka
waisa hi wo phal pata
dusro ke ghar me aag lagane wala
khud hi usme jal jata
jo jaisa boye beej, yaha karni ka

dhul uchali to sar pe giregi
bande na itna bhul
kankar ke badle pathar milega
kate ke badle shul
jo jaisa apna khata dikhata
wo waisa hisab chukata
dusro ke ghar me aag lagane wala
khud hi usme jal jata
jo jaisa boye beej, yaha karni ka
waisa hi wo phal pata
dusro ke ghar me aag lagane wala
khud hi usme jal jata
jo jaisa boye beej, yaha karni ka

As you sow, so shall you reap,
The Lord's just decree, a promise to keep.
If thorns you plant, your harvest sore,
How can mangoes grace your door?

As the seed of deeds you sow,
So the fruit of fate will grow.
He who sets another's house aflame,
Finds himself consumed by the same.
As the seed of deeds you sow.

Dust you fling, it falls on your head,
Forget not this, O mortal, be it said.
For stone you'll find where pebbles lie,
And thorns will bloom where thistles die.
As the ledger of your life you pen,
So shall you pay, again and again.
He who sets another's house aflame,
Finds himself consumed by the same.
As the seed of deeds you sow,
So the fruit of fate will grow.
He who sets another's house aflame,
Finds himself consumed by the same.
As the seed of deeds you sow.
