Koi Kahe Kailash Base WohSome say He lives on ‘Kailash’ ‘the sacred mountain’.
Koi Kahe Shamshaanon MeinSome say He lives in the cremation grounds.
Mahadev Hain Pita Pita Ke‘Mahadev’ ‘the Great God’ is the Father of all fathers.
Praan Base Santaanon MeinHis life-force resides within His children.
Aansoo Agar Bulaate HainIf tears call out to Him,
Soye Prabhu Jag Jaate HainThe sleeping Lord wakes up.
Haan Mere Prabhu Jag Jaate HainYes, my Lord wakes up.
Sukh Mein Aaye Na AayeHe might not come during happy times,
Dukh Mein Shankar Aate HainBut ‘Shankar’ ‘Lord Shiva’ always comes in times of sorrow.
Sukh Mein Aaye Na AayeHe might not come during happy times,
Dukh Mein Shankar Aate HainBut ‘Shankar’ ‘Lord Shiva’ always comes in times of sorrow.
Kaun Ghira Hai Kis Duvidha MeinHe knows who’s trapped in what trouble,
Saari Khabar Woh Rakhte HainHe keeps track of everything.
Aankhen Moonde Baithe HainHe sits with His eyes closed,
Par Sab Pe Nazar Woh Rakhte HainBut He keeps a watchful eye on everyone.
Rote Rote Jis Din KoiOn the day when a devotee,
Bhakt Kahin So Jaata HaiFalls asleep while crying somewhere,
Mansarovar Ka PaaniThe water of ‘Mansarovar’ ‘the sacred lake’,
Us Din Khaara Ho Jaata HaiTurns salty on that very day.
Takleef Prabhu Ko Hoti HaiThe Lord feels the pain personally,
Jab Nain Kahin Bhar Aate HainWhenever someone’s eyes fill with tears.
Jab Nain Kahin Bhar Aate HainWhenever someone’s eyes fill with tears.
Sukh Mein Aaye Na AayeHe might not come during happy times,
Dukh Mein Shankar Aate HainBut ‘Shankar’ ‘Lord Shiva’ always comes in times of sorrow.
Dukhiya Ke Mann Se Jis PalThe moment a sigh of pain begins to escape,
Aah Nikalne Lagti HaiFrom the heart of a suffering person,
Sunte Hain Kailash Shikhar PeThey say that on the peak of ‘Kailash’ ‘the sacred mountain’,
Barf Pighalne Lagti HaiThe ice begins to melt.
Andhiyaaron Mein Agar PukaaroIf you call out to Him in the darkness,
Ban Jaaye Shiv Saathi‘Shiv’ ‘the auspicious one’ becomes your companion.
Mann Kutiya Mein Jal JaayeA lamp without a wick starts to burn,
Koi Deepak Bin BaatiInside the humble cottage of your heart.
Jinke Saath Hua Hai AisaThe people who’ve experienced this,
Woh Hi Log Bataate HainAre the ones who tell these stories.
Jinke Saath Hua Hai AisaThe people who’ve experienced this,
Woh Hi Log Bataate HainAre the ones who tell these stories.
Haan Woh Hi Log Bataate HainYes, they’re the ones who tell these stories.
Sukh Mein Aaye Na AayeHe might not come during happy times,
Dukh Mein Shankar Aate HainBut ‘Shankar’ ‘Lord Shiva’ always comes in times of sorrow.
Sukh Mein Aaye Na AayeHe might not come during happy times,
Dukh Mein Shankar Aate HainBut ‘Shankar’ ‘Lord Shiva’ always comes in times of sorrow.
