Lyrics of Chalti Chakki Dekh Ke - चलती चक्की देख के
chalti chakki dekh ke
deeya kabira roye
do paatan ke bich me
saabit bacha na koye
maati kahe kumhaar se
tu kya raunde mohe
ek din aisa aayega
main raundungi tohe
kabira sangti saadhu ki
hare jagat ki vyadi
ochhi sangti nich ki
aatho pehar upaadhi
kabira khada bazaar me
sabki maange khair
na kaahu se dosti
na kaahu se bair
na kaahu se dosti
na kaahu se bair
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Chalti Chakki Dekh Ke
Seeing the mill's relentless dance,
Kabir weeps, a trembling trance.
Between the stones, a grinding plight,
No wholeness spared by crushing light.
The clay speaks to the potter's hand,
"Why trample me upon this land?"
"A day will come," the earth replies,
"When I will crush you 'neath the skies."
With saints, the world's sickness fades,
A healing balm that gently pervades.
But base companions, in their sway,
Bring ceaseless suffering, night and day.
Kabir stands within the fray,
Wishing well to all, come what may.
With none he seeks a binding tie,
Nor harbors hate beneath the sky.
With none he seeks a binding tie,
Nor harbors hate beneath the sky.
