Mandahdeeno paayo ekaj, te prabhu Isu dhaar,
|
|
Upajaavi navi chhekaj vachan ne paahni dvaar;
|
|
Svargethi kanya leva te aavyo neeche jaahn,
|
|
Ne tene jeevan deva potaano aapyo praan.

Sahu deshothi te leedhi topahn te ekaj khaas,
|
|
Ekaj Ishvarano vidhi paahdi raakhe vishvaas;
|
|
Ek naamni stuti gaai ek kare shuddhaahaar,
|
|
Ne krupaathi chhavaai chaale ek aasha dvaar.

Teni maha peeda dhaari jagat nindaathi joy,
|
|
Phuti tema hoy bhaari, durmtathi dukhi hoy;
|
|
Pan santo to pokaare: "Kya sudhi, he dhani?"
|
|
Rudanni raatri bhaare veetye khushi ghani.

|
Maate ladaai kare ne vethe dukho haal,
|
|
Shaantini aasha dhare ke male te sahu kaal;
|
|
Gauravne dekhi tyaare trupti thai jashe,
|
|
Ne jayvant mandahdi bhaare shaantivaahdi thashe.

|
Bhuae te sambandh raakhe triek prabhu sanghaat,
|
|
Ne guhya sangat daakhe vishraam paamela saath;
|
|
Ha, shuddh ne sukhi keva ! He prabhu, de te vaas,
|
|
Te namra jano jeva thai raheeye taari paas.
