hum se kar le prit ri jogan
hum se kar le prit ri jogan
hum se kar le prit
hum se kar le prit
jogi kis ke mit re murakh
jogi kis ke mit re murakh
jogi kis ke mit

jante ho tulsi maharaj kya kahte hai
pothi pad pad jag muha
jogi bhayanak hoye
ho jogi bhayanak hoye
dhai akshar prem ke
dhai akshar prem ke
padhe so jogi hoye
dhai akshar prem ke
padhe so jogi hoye
jogi kis ke mit re murakh
jogi kis ke mit
jogi kis ke mit

kya maine tulsi maharaj nahi padha
pakki ho na chahe tu to
pakki ho na chahe tu to
pakke ke sang khel khel
ji pakke ke sang khel
kacchi sarso kacchi sarso
pelane se kabhi na nikale tel
kacchi sarso kacchi sarso
pelane se kabhi na nikale tel
hum se kar le prit ri jogan
hum se kar le prit

tan ujala man sanwala
tan ujala man sanwala
bagule ka sa bhes
bagule ka sa bhes
tujhse to kava bhala
tujhse to kava bhala
bahar bhitar ek
tujhse to kava bhala
bahar bhitar ek
jogi kis ke mit re murakh
jogi kis ke mit
hum se kar le prit ri jogan
hum se kar le prit

Embrace love, O seeker,
Embrace love, O seeker,
Embrace love.
Embrace love.
Whom does the ascetic befriend, fool?
Whom does the ascetic befriend, fool?
Whom does the ascetic befriend?
Whom does the ascetic befriend?

Do you know what Tulsidas says?
The world wearies of scriptures,
The ascetic becomes grotesque,
The ascetic becomes grotesque.
Two and a half letters of love,
Two and a half letters of love,
He who reads, becomes a yogi,
He who reads, becomes a yogi.
Whom does the ascetic befriend, fool?
Whom does the ascetic befriend?
Whom does the ascetic befriend?

Have I not read Tulsidas?
If you seek to ripen,
If you seek to ripen,
Play with what is ripe,
Play with what is ripe.
Pressing unripe mustard,
Pressing unripe mustard,
Will never yield oil,
Will never yield oil.
Embrace love, O seeker,
Embrace love.

Body fair, mind dark,
Body fair, mind dark,
Like the guise of a heron,
Like the guise of a heron.
Better the crow,
Better the crow,
One within, one without,
One within, one without.
Whom does the ascetic befriend, fool?
Whom does the ascetic befriend?
Embrace love, O seeker,
Embrace love.
