Listen while reading
Chalna Hai Door Musaafir
The traveler must journey far
Kaahe Sove Re
Why do you still sleep?


Chet Achet Nar Soch Baavre
O heedless man, think, you mad one
Bahut Neend Mat Sove Re
Do not slumber any longer
Kaam Krodh Mad Lobh Mein Fanskar
Entangled in lust, rage, pride and greed
Umariya Kaahe Khove Re
Why waste the life you’ve been given?


Sir Par Maaya Moh Ki Gathri
A bundle of delusion on your head
Sang Doot Tere Hove Re
With death’s messengers beside you
So Gathri Teri Beech Mein Chhin Gayi
That bundle will be snatched away mid-journey
Moodh Pakad Kahaan Rove Re
Fool, where will you cling and weep?


Rasta To Door Kathin Hai
The road is long and hard
Chal Ab Akela Hove Re
Now you must walk alone
Sang Saath Tere Koi Na Chalega
No one will keep you company
Kaat Dagariya Hove Re
You alone must cut the path


Nadiya Gehri Naav Puraani
The river is deep, the boat is old
Kehi Vidhi Paar Tu Hove Re
How will you ever cross?
Kahe Kabir Suno Bhai Saadho
Kabir says: listen, O seeker brother
Byaaj Dhokhe Mool Mat Khove Re
Never lose your capital to interest and deceit
Chalna Hai Door Musaafir
Kaahe Sove Re

Chet Achet Nar Soch Baavre
Bahut Neend Mat Sove Re
Kaam Krodh Mad Lobh Mein Fanskar
Umariya Kaahe Khove Re

Sir Par Maaya Moh Ki Gathri
Sang Doot Tere Hove Re
So Gathri Teri Beech Mein Chhin Gayi
Moodh Pakad Kahaan Rove Re

Rasta To Door Kathin Hai
Chal Ab Akela Hove Re
Sang Saath Tere Koi Na Chalega
Kaat Dagariya Hove Re

Nadiya Gehri Naav Puraani
Kehi Vidhi Paar Tu Hove Re
Kahe Kabir Suno Bhai Saadho
Byaaj Dhokhe Mool Mat Khove Re
चलना है दूर मुसाफ़िर,
काहे सोवे रे।

चेत अचेत नर सोच बावरे,
बहुत नींद मत सोवे रे।
काम, क्रोध, मद, लोभ में फँसकर,
उमरिया काहे खोवे रे।

सिर पर माया मोह की गठरी,
संग दूत तेरे होवे रे।
सो गठरी तेरी बीच में छिन गई,
मूढ़ पकड़ कहाँ रोवे रे।

रस्ता तो दूर कठिन है,
चल अब अकेला होवे रे।
संग-साथ तेरे कोई ना चलेगा,
काट डगरिया होवे रे।

नदिया गहरी, नाव पुरानी,
केहि विधि पार तू होवे रे।
कहे कबीर सुनो भाई साधो,
ब्याज धोखे मूल मत खोवे रे।
