This volume contains the combined, revised versions of three original

bhajan books and a current revision of the combined editions. We have
changed the indications for lines which are repeated and have eliminated
many instructions for the sangat's responses; we recognize and respect the
fact that "local versions" are sung differently in many places. The bhajans
included are our attempt at a close approximation of the way they are sung
in the U.S. All the songs have been sung at Sant Ji's ashram in India.
approved by Sant Ji for inclusion, and the translations and transliterations
have been checked by Raaj Kumar Bagga ("Pappu").
There are three appendices containing recent bhajans by Sant Ji, added in
1988, 1992, and 1996. In 2002, previously unpublished bhajans by Sant Ji
and other Masters were added to Appendix 111.
The transliterations aim to represent the actual Punjabi or Hindi words
which make up the bhajans - not the sounds of those words when sung.
By listening to the tapes of these bhajans (available from the Sant Bani Tape
Service), you will be able to learn them fairly easily. Keep in mind that
Punjabi and Hindi consonants may stand alone without a vowel - in fact
the consonants have an "a" sound built in, therefore words such as "Kabir"
and "Satguru" might be sung as "Kabir-a" and "Sat-a-guru."
As Sant Ji has said, the most important thing is that they be sung with
love.
The quote on the pocket in back is from Sing the Praises of the Satguru.

Naam To Bager Banda

Chorus
Naam to bager banda nahi kise kam da
Jindagi eh teri na bharosa ik dam da (repeat), Naam to bager banda
Man is of no use without the Naam.
0 man, there is no guarantee of even one moment in your life.
Naam to bager bekar jindgani oe, dhareya na guru ki kam insani oe (repeat)
Mitti deya bhandeya oe man vich aavi na,
Ginti de sas labhe eve hi guavi na (repeat)
Naam bina sakhna eh thela ik cham da, jindagi eh ten . . .
0 man, your life is useless without the Naam. You did not get the Master and do
the human work. 0 vessel of mud, don't become proud. You have received a
limited count of breaths - do not lose them for nothing. Without Naam this
body is an empty bag of leather.
Kai var putha tenu garbha 'ch tangeya,
Naam nu bhulake oe tu aje bhi na sangeya (repeat)
Begureya di khal puthi kal lahunda e,
Bhog lo chaurasi vich narka de paunda e (repeat)
Naam japne nu dil aje bhi ni man da, jindagi . . .
Many times you were hung upside down in the womb. Even after forgetting the
Naam, still you do not hesitate. The Negative Power skins those who do not
have a Master. After letting them suffer in the 84 lakhs births and deaths, he puts
them into the hells. Even knowing this, the mind does not want to do the
meditation of Naam.
Bulbula pani da nahi dam da vasah oe,
Hira hath aya jave kodia de bha oe (repeat)
Guru to bager begura dukh pavenga,
Naam sache bina dhakke dargah 'ch khavenga (repeat)
Aje bhi hai vela bande kyo nalu man da, jindagi . . .
You are a bubble of water, and you can't rely on any breath. 0 man, you have
got this jewel of human birth at no cost. Without Master, you will suffer.
Without Naam you will get kicked and knocked in the Court of the Lord.
0 man, still there is time. Why don't you believe this?
Satsang Guru sacha Naam pyara hai,
Dargah de vich ant ese da sahara hai (repeat)
Guru de bachan uthe jo sikh chalda,
Sach khand vala darvaja oho malda (repeat)
Bina Kirpal na Ajaib kise kam da, jindagi . . .
Satsang and Master are true, and Naam is the Beloved One. In the Court of the
Lord we have only the support of this Naam. The disciple who follows the words
of the Master gets to control the door of Sach Khand. Without Kirpal, Ajaib is of
no use.

Karke Vela Yad Jindariye

Chorus:

Karke vela yad jindariye rovengi

Naam bina dukha vale har pirovengi (2x)
0 soul, rememberingthe time you will weep.
Without Naam you are weaving the garlands of suffering.

The mother's womb is a terrible place. God Himself has created this creation.
If you will become His, He Himself will help in the locked room and the hells.

Ujal hovegi; Naam bina . . .
The fire in the womb does not burn when the soul is attached to God.
The soul, hanging there upside down, always repeats the Naam and becomes

Je Guru na miliya, Naam na japya
Kodi badle jave, beth ke rovengi; Naarn bina . . .

If one does not meet the Master and does not meditate upon Naam, then the

Andar bahar ghat-ghat tu hai, Ajaib de kaj savare
Kirpal di hovegi; Naam bina . . .
You are in the water, You are on land. Blessed are You, 0 beloved Kirpal!
Within and without You are present in everyone.

Aa Sajna1
Guru Nanak

Chorus:
Aa sajna dekha darshan tera, tu ghar aa sajna (2x)

O beloved give me your darshan, beloved please come home.

Avo sajana dekha darshan (2x)

Dekhan darshan tera, tu ghar aa sajana.

Come Beloved, give me Your darshan,

Give me Your darshan, come to my home, O Beloved.

Ghar apnere khari mai takkan (2x)

Mai man chao ghanera, tu ghar aa sajna… Aa sajna

Standing at the door I look out for you

My heart suffers the pangs of separation, beloved please come home

Chau ghanera sun prabh mera (2x)

Mai tera bharvasai, tu ghar aa sajna… Aa sajna

My heart's great desire, O my Lord listen.

I surrender truly, beloved please come home.

Darshan dekh bhai nehakeval. (2x)

Janam maran dukh nasa, to ghar aa sajna… Aa sajna

Having your darshan, I became content.

The agony of births and deaths ran away. Beloved please come home.

Sagali jot jata tu sohi (2x)

Mileya bhae subhaye, tu ghar aa sajna… Aa sajna

Every one has your light and through that you are known,
Naturally through love you are found, beloved please come home.

Nanak sajan ko bal jaiye (2x)

Sach mile ghar aye, tu ghar aa sajna… Aa sajna

O Nanak, I sacrifice myself to the beloved

He goes to the homes of true ones, beloved please come home.

Andar Jyoti Jag Rahi2
Sant Ajaib Singh Ji

Chorus:
Andar jyoti jag rahi, bahar man bhula phire.

Within the light is shining, but the mind wanders astray outside.

Sahans kamal me jyoti roshanai, ghanta shankh avaj sunai,,

Ghat ghat me jag rahi, bhar man bhula phire.

From the thousand-petaled lotus the Light is scintillating,

The sounds of the bell and conch are playing.
That light shines within everyone.

Trikuti badal bajat mridanga, tara mandal suraj chanda,

Chaman phulavadi lag rahi, bahar man bhula phire.

In the clouds of Trikuti, the drumbeat of the mridanga3 reverberates,

This is the place of the stars, sun and moon.
The fragrance of jasmine flowers wafts on the air.

Dasam dwara shabd jhanakara, sun mandal triveni dhara,

Kingri sarangi baj rahi, bahar man bhula phire.

In Dasam Dwar the Shabd is ringing, the stream of Triveni flows into the plane of the
void.
The melodies of the kingri4 and sarangi are playing.

Sach Khand surat ja amrit piya, Sat Purush ka darshan kiya,

Dhun pyar ki baj rahi, bashar man bhula phire.

The soul goes to Sach Khand and drinks the amrit, there it has the darshan of Sat Purush,
And the melody of love is playing.

Sacha desh sach takhat suhaya, das Ajaib Kirpal dhyaya,

Sant daya baras rahi, bahar man bhula phire.

Then comes the Realm of Truth, The throne of Truth is adorned,

Servant Ajaib has contemplated on Kirpal.
The grace of the Saints is showering.

Dil ka Hujra Saf Kar5
Tulsi Sahib

Chorus:
Dil ka hujra6 saf kar, jana ke ane ke liye,
Dhyan gairo ka utha uske bithane ke liye.

Cleanse the chamber of your heart, so that the Beloved may enter,
Remove all the foreign impressions, so that He can take His seat there.

Chashme dil se dekh yaha jo jo tamashe ho rahe,

Dilsita kya kya hai tere dil satane ke liye.

See with the heart's eye the astonishing spectacle of this world,
What heart ravishing scenes appear there to entice you.

Ek dil lakho tamnna us pai aur zyada havis,

Phir thikana hai kaha uske tikane ke liye?

One heart, with many desires, and always the lust for more,
Where is there any place for the Lord to come and reside?

Nakali mandir masjido me jae sade aphosa hai,

Kudarati masjid ka sakin dukh uthone ke liye.

It is a great pity that, going in the false [imitation] temples and mosques,
The indweller of the true mosque [the human body] is made to suffer.

Kudarati kabe ki tu maharab me sun gaur se,

A rahi dhur se sada tere bulane ke liye.

We should listen with attention in the prayer niche of the true Kaaba,7
The sound is coming from the Court of the Lord and is calling you.

Kyo bhatkata phir raha tu e talashe yar me,

Rasta shah rag me hai dilvar pai jane ke liye.

Why are you wandering around lost in search of the Beloved?

The way to reach the charming one lies through the shah rag.8

from Ajaib’s Grace magazine (www.ajaibsgrace.com), May-June 2003
6
A hujra is a small room for solitary meditation attached to a mosque.
7
The Kaaba is the most holy place of Muslim pilgrimage in Mecca and the maharab or
prayer niche indicates the direction facing the Kaaba in a mosque. The maharab or prayer
niche of the true Kaaba is the third eye on the human forehead above and between the
two eyes, alternatively called the Shiv netra or tisra til.
8
The shah rag or "royal vein" is the central, subtle vein on the forehead that leads to
Trikuti. It is also called sukhman nari.
4
Murshade kamil se mil sidak aur saburi se taki.
Jo tujhe dega faham shah rag ke pane ke liye.

O devotee, meet the Perfect Master with sincerity and patience.

He will give you the secret to find the shah rag.

Goshe batin ho kushada jo kare kuch din amal.

La ilaha allahu akbar pai jane ke liye.

If you do the practice for a few days, the inner way will open before you.
It is the path to reach Allah, the One God, the Most High.

Yah sada Tulsi ki hai amil amal kar dhyan de.

Kun kuran me hai likha allahu akbar ke liye.

This is the call of Tulsi: O practitioner, do the practice with concentration.

The kun [Shabd] described in the Koran, will take you to Allah, the Most High.

Japle Naam Nisadin9
Baba Somanath

Chorus:
Japle Naam nisadin, ayu bita rahi hai (2x)

Repeat the Naam day and night, because your life is passing away.

Pal pal svasa chije, mrityu najika rahi hai,

Satsang dhar nitya, sadvichar kar satya,
Chor maya asatya, in me sar nahi hai.

Every moment your breaths are being wasted, and death is coming nearer.
Constantly take support from Satsang, always keep your thoughts true,
Give up the falseness of Maya, there is no reality in it.

aise mrig jal age, dekh pyasa bhage,

Jal hat na lage, Maya lubha rahi hai.

Just as when the deer sees the mirage, it runs there to quench its thirst,
But it can’t really reach the water, Maya is only enticing it.

Kal bada anyai, Maya moh jiv phasai,

Ant ap chabai, pesh na kahu chali hai,

Kal is a very unjust, he ensnares the jivas in attachment to Maya.

In the end he will eat you, and no one comes to your rescue.

Lage satguru sharana, mite janma marana,

Kate kal bandhana, Maya pachta rahi hai.

Become attached to the Satguru’s refuge, then your births and deaths will be finished.
He cuts the bonds of Kal, and Maya is repenting.

Ratat rahe nit namahi nama, kud kutil taj kama,

Jate paya visarama, punar janma nahi hai.

Constantly remember the Naam, stop doing the cunning and wicked deeds,
Then you will find rest, and you will not have to take another birth.

Somanath kar Guru sanga, mite maya bhav bhanga,

Kal jalte apanga, rang nam chadi hai.

Somanath says, keep the company of the Guru; then the love of Maya is destroyed.
The net of Kal is severed and the [soul] becomes dyed in the color of Naam.

Je Sajana Tai Murshad Khush Karna10
Sant Ajaib Singh Ji

Chorus:
Je sajana tai murshad khush karna,
Te taraf banauni paindi e.

O dear one, if you want to please the Guru,

You have to create longing for Him in your within.

Gha khodana pave, jind dukhade sahe, kahi bauni pave, naam Guru da lave, (2x)
Sir tokari uthauni paindi e, je sajana tai ...

Hay has to be cut, you will have to endure the suffering,

Remembering the name of the Guru, you will have to carry the basket on your head.

Mastane vangu lit age, tu pyar cha priitam khinch age, (2x)
Mastane vangu sajana oe, jind ghate rulani paindi e, je sajana tai ...

If you prostrate yourself just like Mastana, then you will pull the Beloved to you through
your love.
Like Mastana, O friend, you will have to spend your life trampled in the dirt.

Jo Baksho Hamko11
Sant Kirpal Singh Ji

Chorus:
Jo baksho hamko badi hai bakshish, agar na baksho to chara kya hai (2x)

If you bestow your forgiveness, it is your great generosity.

If you choose not to grant it, then what other recourse do we have?

Na ghar na dar hai, zamin na zar hai, hai sab tumhara, hamara kya hai? (2x) Jo baksho ...

We have neither home or resting place; we have no land or property,

Everything is yours, what belongs to us?

Idhar bhi tum ho, udhar bhi tum ho, yaha bhi tum ho, vaha bhi tum ho. (2x)
Na hum hai tum bin, na vo hai tum bin. (2x)
Jahan ka tum bin sahara kya hai? Jo baksho ...

You are present on this side, and you are present on the other side.
You are present here, you are present there,
We are not without you; He is not without you,
What support does the world have except you?

Khudai teri, judai teri, juda bhi tum ho, khuda bhi tum ho. (2x)
Utha do gar tum vo ham ka parda. (2x)
Bigarata is me tumhara kya hai? Jo baksho...

This creation belongs to you, and separation is also yours,

You yourself are the separated [souls], and You yourself are the Lord.
If you lift the veil between us, what harm would it do to you?

Kaman ke andar hai patta patta, hai tabe farman zarra zarra. (2x)
Kisi ki mano, reham hai vallah. (2x)
Agar na mano, ijara kya hai? Jo baksho ...

Every leaf is under your control, every particle is subject to your dictates.
If you listen to us, it is your grace, O Lord. If you do not listen, then what right
do we have [to demand it]?

Hai rank tera, shehenshah tera, yeh kufra hai kehna mera mera. (2x)
Hai jaisa usko samajhana vaisa. (2x)
Sivae is ke kaphara kya hai? Jo baksho ...

The paper is yours, the emperor is yours; in saying "mine, mine" we commit a
blasphemy. We should accept everything as You fashion it. What other means of
atonement do we have than this?

Mere Manmohan Kirpal Tujhe Yaad Karoon12
Sant Ajaib Singh Ji

Chorus:
Mere manmohan Kirpal tujhe yaad karoon.
Teri yaado men ro-ro kar ik phariyaad karoon,
Main ik phariyaad karoon. (2)

O my heart winningly beautiful Kirpal, I remember You.

Weeping in Your remembrance, I am making a plea. I am making a plea.

Kyon diyaa toonen, mujhe tan karke vichhodaa. (2)

Kyon mujhe toonen bich duniyaan men chhodaa. (2)
Tere bin mera, yahaan kaun kise bakhaan karoon.
Teri yaado...

Why have you given me (this) physical separation.

Why have you left me (alone)in this world.
Except you, who is here for me to whom I may narrate my plight,
Weeping in Your remembrance...

Main to naalaayak, bekhabar duniyan divaani se. (2)

Main na samajhaa kisi or ke samajhaane se. (2)
Samajhoon bhi kaise, aa samajhaa yahi pukaar karoon.
Teri yaado...

I am good for nothing, unacquainted with this crazy world,

I have not been able to grasp anybody else's explanations,
How may I follow, (please) come and make me understand , this is my appeal.
Weeping in Your remembrance.....

Main naa jaanaa, jaanaa naa is divane ko. (2)

Duniyaan to dauri sirf duniyaan ke khajaane ko. (2)
Main to bas royaa, Kirpal-Kirpal karoon.
Teri yaado...

I am bewildered, I can not understand this insane person.

The world only runs after the riches of the world.
(whereas) I only cry and call Kirpal, Kirpal.
Weeping in Your remembrance....

Naa samajh thaa, kai dinon baad hi samajhaa. (2)
Nahin degaa darsh tan karke naam men ramajaa. (2)
Yaad karke teri yaadon, roj royaa karoon.
Teri yaado...

I was ignorant , (but)I understood after a long time .

That you will not give physical 'Darshan', as you are absorbed in Naam.
Recalling your memories , I cry everyday.
Weeping in Your remembrance.....

Bahot main royaa, royaa tujhe yaad karke. (2)

Par naa aayaa too mere pas kabhi tan karke. (2)
Ajaib hain tera, rahe tera yahi ardaas karoon.
Teri yado...

I cried profusely, I wept deeply in Your remembrance,

But you never came to me in Your physical form.
Ajaib is Yours, may remain Yours, this is my prayer.
Weeping in Your remembrance.......

Sant Satguru Satya Swarupa13
Baba Somanath

Santa Satguru Satya Swarupa,

Nitya niramaya nirmala.

O Sant Satguru, Form of Truth,

You are ever pure and undefiled.

Mrityunjaya bhav dustar taraka,

Chit chinmaya tatva prakashaka,
Gati mati ko gane stiti na barane,
Mati agamya ant na mula.

You are the victor over death who ferries the jives across the impassable realm of matter,
Omniscient Consciousness, Quintessence of Light,
Ineffable and beyond reckoning is Your state,
The mind cannot conceive of You, You are without beginning and without end.

Dhyavat yogi kar sanyogi,

Jag vasana tyagi,
Nigamadik kare teri mahima,
Nag Shesh Shiv Hari Brahma,
Jagat jyoti maha tej murti,
Karan suksham na sthula.

Through contemplation upon You, the yogis have abandoned worldly desires
and have achieved union with the Beloved,
All the Scriptures, even Shiva, Brahma, Vishnu and the serpent Shesh
extol Your greatness,
O Kindler of Light, in Your form resides all power and splendor,
You remain beyond the destructible realms – physical, astral and causal.

Bed atit bodh murti,

Sadhu jan hridaya vasi,
Nad nayak bhedh ananta,
Badh jivan bhav haranta,
Che dishi maya kar nirmohya,
Alaukik amola.

Surpassing the Vedas, You are the Embodiment of Enlightenment,

Yet within the hearts of the Sadhus, You make Your abode,
You are the Master of the inner Sound, the mystery never-ending,
Vanquishing all obstructions in this earthly existence,
Free us from attachments to the six-directional Maya,

And unite us with Transcendental Reality that is beyond price.

Param jyoti param prakasha,

Karatalamrit dayaka,
Nirankar nirgunatita,
Nirbhaya dev bhav rahita,
Varanat Shastra Puran atula.

Peerless Radiance, Supreme Effulgence,

Cupped in Your hands is the nectar of immortality, which You distribute unstintingly,
Unrivaled in purity, free from all limiting qualities,
Fearless Lord, unfettered by this world,
The Shastras and Puranas recount Your matchless glory.

Dina nath dayal swami,

Swa anubhav prakashaka,
Somanath tav charan dhyave,
Nem nitya nirantar gave,
Kamadik bhav har jiv shula.

O Protector of the lowly ones, most merciful Lord,

Self-Perceiving, Bestower of Light,
Somanath has contemplated upon Your lotus feet,
Unceasingly He will sing Your praises,
You free all the jives from the desires and sufferings of this world.
