ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaaun
main charanan sheesh nawaaun
ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaaun
main charanan sheesh nawaaun

saanjh sakaare lekar lota
nal par queue lagaun
aap nahaun ya na nahaun
par tujhko nahlaun
khud khaun ya na khaun
par tujhko bhog lagaun
mai charanan sheesh nawaun
ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaaun
mai charanan sheesh nawaaun

churchgate se borivali tak
vt se kalyaan vt se kalyaan
bhatak chuke ham par bin pagdi
milta nahi makan milta nahi makan
aji sar dhakne ko topi nahi
mai pagdi kahaan se laaun
mai charanan sheesh nawaaun
ho itne bade bhagwan dila de makan
tere gun gaun tere gun gaaun
main charanan sheesh nawaun

tere insano ki basti me aa gaye ye haiwan
tere insano ki basti me aa gaye ye haiwan
aur pagdi lene dene wale dono beiman
tu shakti mujhko de tu shakti mujhko de
inhe mai kachha hi kha jau
mai charanan sheesh nawaun
ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaaun
main charanan sheesh nawaaun

ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaaun
mai charanan sheesh nawaaun
beete ro ro o o beete ro ro
saawan bhaado biwi bulaane(?) aaye
ae sach poochho ?? ham to shaadi kar pachhtaye
ae ae shaadi kar pachhtaye narayan narayan
maine bhi ik chhoti si bulbul se nain ladaaye
maine bhi ik chhoti si bulbul se nain ladaaye
roz karu shaadi ke waade poore kar nahi paaun
poore kar nahi paau main charanan sheesh nawaaun
ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaaun
main charanan sheesh nawaaun

aji ek ke paas hai chhe chhe kamre
aur yaha ek mein chhe chhe aur bhi jo chaahe
aa jaye ae ae ae ae aji naa nahi hogi hamse
ae naa nahi hogi hamse
beghar ka dukh dekh sakoon na
ro ro main mar jaau ro ro main mar jaau
main charanan sheesh nawaau
ho itne bade bhagwaan dila de makaan
tere gun gaaun tere gun gaau
main charanan sheesh nawaau

Oh, great God, grant a home to me,
That I may sing Your praise, constantly,
And bow my head at Your blessed feet,
Oh, great God, a home, a home to meet.
I sing Your praise, endlessly,
And bow my head, eternally.

Morning and evening, with a humble heart,
I’ll fetch water, a devotion's start,
Whether I bathe, or choose to abstain,
I'll bathe You first, through sun and rain.
Whether I eat, or choose to fast,
I'll offer You the first repast.
I bow my head at Your blessed feet,
Oh, great God, a home, a home to meet.
I sing Your praise, endlessly,
And bow my head, eternally.

From Churchgate to Borivali's expanse,
From Wadala to Kalyan's dance,
We wander lost, without a roof,
No home we find, a sorry proof.
No cap to shield my weary head,
Where can I find a turban, instead?
I bow my head at Your blessed feet,
Oh, great God, a home, a home to meet.
I sing Your praise, endlessly,
And bow my head, eternally.

In Your human realm, beasts now reside,
Dealers of deceit, on every side.
Grant me strength, Your sacred might,
That I may consume them, with all my fight.
I bow my head at Your blessed feet,
Oh, great God, a home, a home to meet.
I sing Your praise, endlessly,
And bow my head, eternally.

Oh, great God, grant a home to me,
That I may sing Your praise, constantly,
And bow my head at Your blessed feet.
The monsoon passed with tears, I weep,
My wife calls out, her promises to keep.
I confess, in marriage, I did err,
I pledged my love, a small bird to prefer.
Each day I vow, a promise to fulfill,
But fail each time, against my will.
I bow my head at Your blessed feet,
Oh, great God, a home, a home to meet.
I sing Your praise, endlessly,
And bow my head, eternally.

Some possess six rooms, a grand design,
While here, six souls in one room pine.
They can come, but space is tight,
I cannot bear this endless plight.
The homeless pain, I cannot hold,
I weep, and die, stories untold.
I bow my head at Your blessed feet,
Oh, great God, a home, a home to meet.
I sing Your praise, endlessly,
And bow my head, eternally.
