Lyrics of Maati Ke Jalte Deepak Ki Jyot - माटी के जलते दीपक की ज्योत
maati ke jalte deepak ki
jyot to ek din bujh jani hai
jo kuch dekha or suna jo
wo bas ek kahani hai
maati ke jalte deepak ki
jyot to ek din bujh jani hai
chhod ke aakhir tan ka pinjara
panchi ne ud jana hai
parm atma me jakar hi ek din ise samana hai
lobh na kar tu is dunia ka ye dunia to pani hai
maati ke jalte deepak ki
jyot to ek din bujh jani hai
pap bhara hai man me tere
zahar bhara teri sanso me
dunia ki jhuthi maya ne
dhul bhari teri aankho me
kadam kadam par is dunia me
tune thokar khani hai maati ke jalte deepak ki
jyot to ek din bujh jani hai
tere bas me kuch nahi pagle
tere hath se kuch nahi hona
fenk de apne hatho se ye aag ugalta hua khilona
tune apne murkh man me
kaisi jidd ye thani hai
maati ke jalte deepak ki
jyot to ek din bujh jani hai
jo kuch dekha or suna jo
wo bas ek kahani hai maati ke jalte deepak ki
jyot to ek din bujh jani hai
hari om hari om hari om hari om
hari om hari om hari om hari om
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Maati Ke Jalte Deepak Ki Jyot
The earthen lamp, a flicker bright,
Must dim and fade into the night.
All seen, all heard, a fleeting trace,
A whispered tale of time and space.
The earthen lamp, a flicker bright,
Must dim and fade into the night.
From flesh's cage, the spirit flies,
To merge at last with endless skies.
This world's allure, a fleeting foam,
Where greed finds not a lasting home.
The earthen lamp, a flicker bright,
Must dim and fade into the night.
Sin's shadow stains your inner core,
Venom breathes in every pore.
The world's false gleam, a dusty haze,
Obscures your sight in blinding ways.
At every turn, the world's harsh sting,
Will lessons of the spirit bring.
The earthen lamp, a flicker bright,
Must dim and fade into the night.
Your grasp is weak, your power small,
You cannot change the destined call.
Cast off the fire in your hand,
This fiery toy, you'll understand.
Why hold this foolish, stubborn will?
Why cling to what the soul must still?
The earthen lamp, a flicker bright,
Must dim and fade into the night.
All seen, all heard, a fleeting trace,
A whispered tale of time and space.
The earthen lamp, a flicker bright,
Must dim and fade into the night.
Om Hari Om, Om Hari Om,
Om Hari Om, Om Hari Om.
