KARAM KI GATI  NYARI

 Ram kahiye, govind kahin mere………

Karam ki gati nyari….santon………karam ki gati nyari!

Bare bare nayan diye mirgan ko….ban ban firat ujari!

Karam ki gati nyari…….

Ujjwal varna dini bagalan ko……koyal kar dini kaari!

Karam ki gati nyari…….

Aur nadi pan jal nirmal kini….samundar kar dini khari!

Karam ki gati nyari…….

Murakh ko tum raaj diyat ho……..pandit firat bhikhari!

Karam ki gati nyari…….

Meera ke prabhu giridhar nagar…..rajaji to aan bichari!

Karam ki gati nyari…….

Bare bare nayan diye mirgan ko….ban ban firat ujari!

Karam ki gati nyari…….

 

Meaning:

Meerabai says:- O mind ! chant the name of the Lord who sometimes is known as Ram and sometimes Govind!

The ways of destiny are really strange…..o saints……really strange!

Though nature has given such big and beautiful eyes to deers, still what they have got to see? They keep roaming in the wilderness of the forests.

The lord has given such bright complexion to useless cranes, but coloured the melodious cooku (koyal) bird in black! What an irony! The ways of the lord are strange!

O destiny! Thou hast given the smaller rivers clear and sweet waters but made the great ocean salty! What to say……….thy ways are really strange!

You make the fools king, while the deserving ,pious and learned people wander in this world as beggers!........ thy ways are really strange!

This poor Meera has only sri govind,giridhar-the holder of mount govardhan  as her Lord but the king not believing her chastity thinks someone else to be her lover! Really strange!  O destiny…….. thy ways are really strange!

Only if we could develop a fraction of bhakti of Meera bai...

ध्यायतो विषयान् पुंसः संगस्तेषूपजायते । संगात्सञ्जायते कामः कामात्क्रोधोऽभिजायते ॥
क्रोधाद् भवति सम्मोहः सम्मोहात्स्मृतिविभ्रमः । स्मृतिभ्रंशाद् बुद्धिनाशो बुद्धिनाशात्प्रणश्यति ॥

ध्यायत ईश्वरं पुंसः संगस्तेषूपजायते । संगात्सञ्जायते प्रेमः प्रेमात्करुणोपजायते ॥
करुणाद्भवति निर्मोहोनिर्मोहात्स्मृतिरागमः । स्मृतिवृध्याद्बुद्धिशुद्धिः धीशुध्याद् विमुच्यते ॥

Master sang this song, telling us to tell our mind to dive deep into the mind.
 
"O ceasely searching mind,
if your longing for Truth is real,
then let me hear you cry out
to the beautiful Black Goddess,
with an infinite cry.
Could the Mother of the Universe
 then sustain the playful illusion
that She is separate from you?
 
[The Great Swan  Lex Hixion First Indian Edition p. 69]
