kahe ko bisara sat nam
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam
kahe ko bisara sat nam
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam

jhuth na chodi tune
pap na choda tune pap na choda
daya dharam se kyu mukh moda
tan bhi vyakul man bhi vyakul vyakul tan
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam
kahe ko bisara sat nam
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam

jhutha rishta jhutha nata
kahe birkha janam gawata
maya jal ko tod ke pagle chakar shabd pahchan
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam
kahe ko bisara sat nam
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam

nam rahega teri deh jalegi
satya ki kunji tere sath chalegi
parbhu ke bhajan bina aakhir tere
parbhu ke bhajan bina aakhir tere
koi na aaye kam
o baba tune kahe ko bisara hari nam

Why have you forsaken the True Name?
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?
Why have you forsaken the True Name?
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?

Falsehood you've not relinquished,
Sin you've not released, sin you've not released.
Why have you turned your face from compassion and duty?
The body aches, the mind is restless, restless the form.
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?
Why have you forsaken the True Name?
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?

False the ties, false the bonds,
Why then, in vain, does birth descend?
Shatter the illusion of Maya's waters, madman,
Grasp the wheel of creation's dance.
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?
Why have you forsaken the True Name?
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?

The Name alone shall endure, your flesh will burn,
Truth's key alone will journey with you.
Without the Lord's hymn, in the end, for you,
Without the Lord's hymn, in the end, for you,
None will come to aid.
O Father, why have you forgotten Hari's Name?
