Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Kabir says: with my eyes I see You. With my ears I hear Your Naam.
With my tongue I speak Your Naam, O dear One, and I keep Your lotus feet in my heart.
Let your eyes, ears, words and heart all turn toward the One.
Love for the One can fill every part of you: eyes, ears, tongue and heart.
Nain nihaara-o tujh ka-o: with my eyes I look at You. Sarvan sun-o tu-a naa-o: with my ears I hear Your Naam.
Bain uchara-o tu-a naam jee: with my words I speak Your Naam. Charan kamal rid thaa-o: Your lotus feet, Your gentle presence, have a home in my heart.
