Kabir says, this body is a tanpura, made of the Five elements. If struck well, it sings the divine hymn. Enjoy “Ho Sadho”, a tribute to the saint on #Kabir Jayanti.
Lyrics and Meaning:
Ho sadho
Yaha tana thaata tambure kaa
Ho sadho
हो साधो
यह तन ठाठ तम्बूरे का
हो साधो ||
O seekers, this body is a splendid tanpura!
Pach tatwa ka banaa hai tambura
Tara laga nau ture ka
पांच तत्व का बना है तम्बूरा
तार लगा नौ तूरे का ||
This tanpura made of 5 elements, strung together with nine resonances.
Aenchata tara marodata khoonti
Nikasata raga hajure ka, ho sadho
एंचत तार मरोड़त खूँटी
निकसत राग हजुरे का, हो साधो ||
Tighten the strings, twist the pegs, and it sings the song of the Lord.
Toota tara bikhara gayi khoonti
Ho gaya dhoora madhure ka, ho sadho
टूटा तार बिखर गई खूँटी
हो गया धूर मधुरे का, हो साधो ||
The strings snap, the pegs lie scattered, the sweetness has turned to dust.
Ya dehi ka garaba na keeje
uda gaya hansa tanbure kaa
या देहि का गर्व न कीजे
उड़ गया हंस तम्बूरे का ||
Don’t cling in vain to this body. Its swan has flown away.
Kahe kabira suno bhai sadho
Agama pantha ika sure kaa
कहे कबीरा सुनो भई साधो
अगम पंथ इक सूरे का ||
Kabir says, listen seekers. The path of the brave is pathless.
