naiya padi majhdhar
guru bina kaise lage paar
naiya padi majhdhar

main apradhi janam ko
man me bhara vikar
tum data dukh bhan bina
meri karo sambhal
ab gun das kabir ke
bahut garib navaj
jo main put kaput hun
jo main put kaput hun
kahu pita ki laaj
guru bina kaise lage paar
naiya padi majhdhar
guru bina kaise lage paar
naiya padi majhdhar

saheb tum mat bhuliyo
lakh log lag jahe
saheb tum mat bhuliyo
hum se tumhre bahut hai
tum se humre nahi
antaryaami ek tum
aatam ke aadhar
jo tum chhodo aas parbhu ji
jo tum chhodo aas parbhu ji
kaun utare paar
guruji kaise lage paar
naiya padi majhdhar

The vessel tossed, a sea of doubt,
Without the guide, how can I break out?
The vessel tossed, a sea of doubt.

Born stained, in sin I drown,
My heart a festering, wounded town.
You, the Giver, of sorrow's end,
Embrace me now, and gently tend.
I sing Kabir's humble praise,
To the One who knows all ways.
Though a wayward child I be,
I cling to honor, desperately.
Without the guide, how can I break out?
The vessel tossed, a sea of doubt.
Without the guide, how can I break out?
The vessel tossed, a sea of doubt.

Forget me not, Great Lord above,
Though legions turn, and lose their love.
Forget me not, though many stray,
We are your own, come what may.
We are your own, bound to your grace,
While you, within, hold every space.
You, the Inner Light, the soul's embrace,
The very ground of time and space.
If you forsake, O Lord of Light,
Who then will lead me through the night?
How can I cross, without your might?
The vessel tossed, a sea of doubt.
