Lyrics and Meaning:

Sunta hai guru gyani

Gagan me awaaz ho rahi hai jheeni jheeni

Sunta hai guru gyani

So says the voice and words of the Guru. The divine sound originates in the sky.

Paahile aaye

Naad bindu se peechhe jamaya paani ho ji

Sab ghat puran guru rahya hai

Alakh purush nirvaani ho ji

Sunta hai guru gyani

The soul originated from “nada bindu”. “Nada”, the sound and “Bindu”, the seed. The “Bindu” represents the male while “Nada”, the female energy. So says the voice of the Guru.

Vahaa se aaya pata likhaya

Trishna toone bujhai

Amrut chhodso vishay ko dhaave

Oolti phaans phansaani ho ji, phansaani ho ji

Sunta hai guru gyani

Your being arrived from there to an address in this world, to quench its own thirst – the desire for God. But putting nectar aside, you drink poison again and again. Going in reverse, you now toss and turn in your own trap.

Gagan mandal mein gau biyaanii

Bhoii se dahii jamaaya, jamaaya

Maakhan maakhan santon ne khaaya

Chhaachh jagat baparaanii ho ji, baparaanii ho ji

The celestial cow of knowledge, Brahman is milked for the benefit of everyone.Knowledgeable, wise men opt for the butter (spiritual knowledge) while the world out of ignorance are content with the butter milk.

Bin dharti ek mandal diisee

Bin saruvar joo paani re

Gagan mandal mein ho ujiyala

Bole guru-mukh baani ho ji, mukh baani ho ji

Instead of seeing earth, see it as merely a sphere. Seeing a lake, understand it is nothing but water. When one starts experiencing the underlying unifying principle over apparent diversity and duality, knowing dawns. So says the voice and words of the Guru.

Oham soham baaja baaje

Trikuti dhaam suuhaanii re

Ida pingala sukhman nari

Sun dhvaja phaharaani ho ji, phaharaani ho ji

Sunta hai guru gyani

When this happens, all the questions like “Who am I” and “So am I” are answered. Ida and Pingala are pacified and Sushmna is activated, says the teacher from the sky.

Kahe Kabir suno bhai saadho

Jai agam ki baani re

Din bhar re jo nazar bhar dekhe

Ajar amar ho nishani ho ji

Kabir says, “Listen, Oh righteous brother. Understand and experience and become one with the non-ageing and eternal one principle who looks after this entire universe every single moment.”

Sunta hai guru gyani

Gagan me awaaz ho rahi hai jheeni jheeni

Sunta hai guru gyani

So says the voice and words of the Guru. The divine sound originates in the Sky. .
