raag dvesh ko chhod ke manwa
raag dvesh ko chhod ke manwa
gyan ki jyot jaga le manwa
gyan ki jyot jaga le
raag dvesh ko chhod ke manwa
gyan ki jyot jaga le manwa
gyan ki jyot jaga le

ghiri chahu se ek bawri jiwan jeena marna
ghiri chahu se ek bawri jiwan jeena marna
sah sah kar sansar basa basa
sah sah kar sansar basa basa
patit ki seva karna
in se dvesh updesh ho hansa
in se dvesh updesh ho hansa
man me preet basa le manwa
gyan ki jyot jaga le

maya moh hata de man se kaam krodh ko jeet
maya moh hata de man se kaam krodh ko jeet
swarth tyag parmarth me kho ja
swarth tyag parmarth me kho ja hogi teri jeet
sewa ko apna le manwa
sewa ko apna le manwa
jag ko meet bana le manwa
gyan ki jyot jaga le

Abandon attachments, o my heart,
Abandon attachments, let them depart.
Kindle the lamp of wisdom bright,
Kindle the lamp, and fill with light.
Abandon attachments, o my heart,
Kindle the lamp, a brand new start,
Kindle the lamp, and let it start.

Ensnared on all sides, a life so wild,
Living, dying, like a burdened child.
Enduring the world, the cycle spun,
Enduring the world, ‘til all is done.
Serve the fallen, with grace and care,
From these, let wisdom fill the air.
Let love reside within your heart,
Kindle the lamp, a brand new start.

Cast off illusion, and worldly ties,
Conquer anger, and all its lies.
Self-interest, relinquish now,
In selfless service, take a vow.
Then victory's song will fill your soul,
Let service be your guiding goal.
Make friends of all, in every art,
Kindle the lamp, and let it start.
