Hum Balak Tum Maay Hamari - Sri Sahjobai

(Raag Bhairav)
Hum Balak Tum Maay Hamari, Pal-Pal Maahim Karo Rakhwaari. [1]
Nishidin Godi Hi Mein Rakho, Anvit Vachan Chitavan Bhaasho. [2]
Vishay Or Jaane Na Devo, Dur-Dur Jaaun To Gahi Levo. [3]
Main Ajaan Kachhuhoo Nahi Jaanun, Buri-Bhali Ko Na Pahichaanun. [4]
Jaisi Taisi Tumhin Cheenho, Guru Hoy Dhyaan Khilauna Deenho. [5]
Tumhari Raksha Hi Sun Jaaun, Naam Tumhaaro Amrit Paaun. [6]
Drishti Tumhaari Upar Mere, Sadaa Rahun Main Sharanai Tere. [7]
Maari Jhirkau Tau Nahi Jaaun, Sarki-Sarki Tumhi Pai Aauun. [8]
Charandas Kahai ‘Sahjo’ Daasi, Ho Rakshak Pooran Avinaashi. [9]

- Sri Sahjobai

O Gurudev! I am your child, and you are my true divine Mother, protecting me every moment. [1]

Keep me always in Your lap, guarding me with Your loving words and compassionate gaze. [2]

Do not let me be drawn toward worldly desires; if I stray away, pull me gently back to You. [3]

I am ignorant — I do not know what is right and wrong. [4]

However, I am, only You truly know me; You have given me the bliss of contemplation. [5]

I live because you protect me. I drink the nectar of your holy name. [6]

May Your merciful eyes always rest upon me, and I remain forever in your refuge. [7]

Even if You scold me or beat me, I will not leave; I will only humbly crawl and come closer to You again and again. [8]

Sahjobai says to her Gurudev, Charandas — I am your servant and You are the all-protector, the complete and my eternal master. [9]
