Lyrics with English translation

Singer And Composer: Pandit Kumar Gandharva (1924- 1992) Dewas (M.P) India

LYRICS :-
Ud Jayega Huns Akela,
Jug Darshan Ka Mela
Jaise Paat Gire Taruvar Se,
Milna Bahut Duhela
Naa Jane Kidhar Girega,
Lageya Pawan Ka Rela

Jub Howe Umur Puri,
Jab Chute Ga Hukum Huzuri
Jum Ke Doot Bade Mazboot,
Jum Se Pada Jhamela
Das Kabir Har Ke Gun Gawe,
Wah Har Ko Paran Pawe
Guru Ki Karni Guru Jayega,
Chele Ki Karni Chela
Ud jayega hans akela
Jag darshan ka mela…

Translation
The swan will fly away alone / the worlds’ spectacle a passing fair

The leaf which falls from the tree cannot be found / Who knows where it will fall?

Struck with a gust of wind; when life’s span is complete;
Then obedience to orders, following after others, will be done

The messengers of Yama are very strong / once entangled with Yama

Servant Kabir praises the Lord’s attributes / He finds the Lord soon

The guru will go according to his doings / The disciple according to his

The swan will fly away alone / the worlds’ spectacle a passing fair


Kabir is a very important figure in Indian history. He is unusual in that he is spiritually significant to Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims alike
