Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye Je,
Peed Paraaye Jaane Re ।
Par Dukkhe Upkaar Kare Toye,
Man Abhiman Na Anne Re ॥
॥ Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye..॥

Sakal Lok Maan Sahune Vandhe,
Ninda Na Kare Kainee Re ।
Baach Kaachh, Man Nischal Raakhe,
Dhan-Dhan Jananee Tainee Re ॥
॥ Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye..॥

Samdrishtine Trishna Tyaagi,
Par-Stree Jene Maat Re ।
Jivha Thaki Asatya Na Bole,
Par-Dhan Nav Jhale Haath Re ॥
॥ Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye..॥

Moha-Maaya Vyaape Nahi Jene,
Dridh Vairaagya Jena Man Maan Re ।
Ram-Naam-Shoon Taali Laagi,
Sakal Tirath Tena Tan Ma Re ॥
॥ Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye..॥

Vanlobhi Ne Kapat Rahit Chhe,
Kaam-Krodh Nivaarya Re ।
Bhane Narsaiyyo Tenu Darshan Karta,
Kul Ekoter Taarya Re ॥
॥ Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye..॥

Vaishnav Jan To, Tene Kahiye Je,
Peed Paraaye Jaane Re ।
Par Dukkhe Upkaar Kare Toye,
Man Abhiman Na Anne Re ॥
