Translation of Jiv chhodaava sat panth miliya

Jiv chhodaava sat panth miliya

tame saachun bolo munivar bhaai;
ek til jutth jo bolsho
to khoysho bhav ni kamaai 1

abhimaan na kije man;
man maarine musallo kijiyen
to paamiyen Shaah naa darshaan 2

tyaare sarve kurfraan ttaalshe
bhaai paltte sarve jahaan 6

tyaare Noor-waay firastaa ne hukam thaase

tame kamar baandhi ne thaao hushiyaar;
soh din nahede aaviyo
tene vilambh nahi re lagaar 11
