बेला अमृत गया, आलसी सो रहा, बन अभागा।
साथी सारे जगे, न तू जागा ॥ झोलियां भर रहे भाग वाले।
लाखों पतितों ने जीवन संभाले ॥
रंक राजा बने, प्रभु रस में सने, कष्ट भागा।
साथी सारे जगे तू न जागा ॥
प्रभु किरपा से नर तन ये पाया।
आलसी बन के यूं ही गंवाया ॥
उलटी हो गई मती, कर लई अपनी क्षति, चोला त्यागा।
साथी सारे जगे, तू न जागा ॥
स्वांसा एक-एक अनमोल बीता।
अमृत के बदले विष को तू पीता।
सौदा घाटे का कर, हाथ माथे पै धर, रोने लागा।
साथी सारे जगे, तू न जागा ॥
मानव कुछ भी न तूने विचारा।
सिर से ऋषियों का ऋण उतारा।
हंस का गुण न लिया, गंदला पानी पिया, बन के के कागा।
साथी सारे जगे, तू न जागा ॥ जागा ॥
The precious time has passed, the lazy one sleeps, becoming unfortunate.
All the companions awoke, but you did not. The fortunate ones are filling their bags.
Millions of sinners have reformed their lives.
The poor have become kings, immersed in divine bliss, their suffering has vanished.
All the companions awoke, but you did not.
This human body was obtained through God’s grace.
You wasted it by being lazy.
Your intellect became perverse, you harmed yourself, and abandoned your body.
All the companions awoke, but you did not.
Every single breath was precious.
Instead of nectar, you drank poison.
You made a losing deal, put your hands on your head, and began to weep.
All the companions awoke, but you did not.
O man, you did not consider anything.
You did not repay the debt to the sages.
You did not acquire the qualities of a swan, you drank dirty water, becoming a crow.
All the companions awoke, but you did not.
