Chalna Hai Dur Musafir Kahe Sove Re Lyrics In Hindi
Chalna hai door musaafir kaahe sove re
You have a long journey ahead, traveler, why are you sleeping?
चलना है दूर मुसाफ़िर,
काहे सोवे रे।
Chet achet nar soch baavare, bahut neend mat sove re
Wake up, O confused one, don’t sleep your life away in ignorance.
चेत अचेत नर सोच बावरे,
बहुत नींद मत सोवे रे।
काम, क्रोध, मद, लोभ में फँसकर,
उमरिया काहे खोवे रे।
Kaam krodh mad lobh mein fanskar, umariya kaahe khove re
Why waste your precious life trapped in desire, anger, pride, and greed?
सिर पर माया मोह की गठरी,
संग दूत तेरे होवे रे।
सो गठरी तेरी बीच में छिन गई,
मूढ़ पकड़ कहाँ रोवे रे।
Sir par maaya moh ki gathri, sang doot tere hove re
You’re carrying the burden of illusion and attachment, and the messenger of death is always with you.
रस्ता तो दूर कठिन है,
चल अब अकेला होवे रे।
संग-साथ तेरे कोई ना चलेगा,
काट डगरिया होवे रे।
So gathri teri beech mein chhin gayi, moorh pakad kahaan rove re
If that bundle is snatched away in the middle, foolish one, where will you run to cry?
नदिया गहरी, नाव पुरानी,
केहि विधि पार तू होवे रे।
कहे कबीर सुनो भाई साधो,
ब्याज धोखे मूल मत खोवे रे।
Rasta to door kathin hai, chal ab akela hove re
The path is long and tough, now you must walk it alone.
Sang saath tere koi na chalega, kaat dagariya hove re
No one will stay with you on this road, you have to walk it by yourself.
Nadiya gahri, naav puraani, kehi vidhi paar tu hove re
The river is deep and your boat is old, how will you cross it?
Kahe Kabir suno bhai saadho, byaaj dhokhe mool mat hove re
Kabir says, listen seeker, don’t lose your true self chasing false gains.
