The meaning of this for people who cant follow Hindi well

Singer...Kumar Vishnu
Lyricist...raju Rajasthani
Music Director..Mahesh Prabhakar

Part 1

KABHI PYASE KO PANI PILAYA NAHI

BAAD AMRIT PILANE SE KYA FAIDA

KABHI GIRATE HUVE KO UTHAYA NAHI

BAAD AASU BAHANE SE KYA? FAIDA

If you never gave a thirsty person any water,

Then what is the point in giving him nectar granting immortality afterwards?

If you never picked up a falling person,

Then what is the point in shedding tears afterwards?

Correct me if im wrong with the translation :) It is a very beautiful bhajan...

Part 2

MEI TO MANDIR GAYA, PUJA AARTI KI

PUJA KARTE HUVE YE KHAYAL AA GAYA

KABHI MAA BAAP KI SEVA KI HI NAHI

SIRF PUJA KE? KARNE SE KYA FAIDA

I went to the temple and I prayed to god,

Whilst I was praying I suddenly had a thought,

I never did a selfless service for my mother and father,

Then what is the point in only praying to god?

Part 3

MEI TO SATSANG GAYA GURUVANI SOONI

GURUVANI KO SOONKAR KHAYAL AA GAYA

JANMA MANAV KA LEKE DYA NA KARI

FIR MANAV KAHLANE SE KYA FAIDA

I went to a gathering to learn about god and I listened to the saint's teachings,

Whilst I was listening to the saint's teachings I? suddenly had a thought,

Even though I have been given birth as a human, I have never shown any mercy/kindness,

Then what is the point in being called a human?

Part 4

MAINE DAAN KIYA MAINE JAPTAP KIYA

DAAN KARTE HUVE YE KHAYAL AA GAYA

KABHI BHUKHE KO BHOJAN KHILAYA NAHI

DAAN LAKHO KA KARNE SE KYA FAIDA

I gave donations and I did my prayers and? I did my penance,

Whilst I was making the donations I suddenly had a thought,

I never gave food to a hungry person,

Then what is the point in donating thousands?

Part 5

GANGAA NAHANE HARIDHVAR KASI GAYA

GANGAA NAHATE HI MAANME KHAYAL AA GAYA

TAAN KO DHOYA MAGAR MAAN KO DHOYA NAHI

FIR GANGAA NAHANE SE KYA FAIDA

I went to bathe in the sacred river Ganges in Haridwar Kasi,

Whilst I was bathing in the sacred river Ganges? I suddenly had a thought,

I have washed my body but I haven't washed my soul,

Then what is the point in bathing in this sacred river Ganges?


Part 6

MAINE VED PADHE MAINE SHASHTRA PADHE

SHASHTRA PADHATE HUVE YE KHAYAL AA GAYA

MAINE GNAN HI KISI KO BATA NAHI

FIR GNANI KAHELANE SE KYA FAIDA

I have read all the? holy texts like the Vedas and the Shashtras,

Whilst reading the Shashtras I suddenly had a thought,

I have never shared my knowledge with anyone,

Then what is the point in being called wise/intelligent?

Part 7 - final stanza

MAAT PITAA KE HI CHARNOME CHARO DHAM HE

AAJA AAJA YAHI MUKTI KA DHAM HE

PITAA MAATA KI SEVA KI HI NAHI

FIR TIRTHO ME JANE SE KYA FAIDA

All your places of worship are at the feet of your respected parents,

Come. Come that is the place to achieve liberation and enlightenment,

If you never did a selfless service for your father and? mother,

Then what is the point in going on pilgrimages?


I hope all of you really listen to the song at least once and some day it will touch your lives and make a difference.

Words with such deep meaning - very inspiring. I think everyone makes a difference in someone's life in their own way.... some big n some small, many a times they don't even know about it. Music is one such medium ......
SRGMP never had a proper Bhajan round wonder why? or maybe I missed it.
