By MeerabaiLanguage Rajasthani3 verses

पायो जी मैंने राम रतन धन पायो। वस्तु अमोलक दी मेरे सतगुरु, किरपा कर अपनायो॥

Paayo ji maine Ram ratan dhan paayo, Vastu amolak di mere satguru, kirpa kar apnaayo.

I have found the wealth of the jewel of Ram's name. My true guru gave me this priceless thing and, in his grace, made me his own.

जनम जनम की पूँजी पाई, जग में सभी खोवायो॥ खरचै न खूटै, चोर न लूटै, दिन दिन बढ़त सवायो॥

Janam janam ki poonji paai, jag mein sabhi khovaayo, Kharchai na khootai, chor na lootai, din din badhat savaayo.

I have found the treasure of many lifetimes and let go of everything else in the world. It does not run out when spent, thieves cannot steal it, and every day it grows by a quarter more.

सत की नाव खेवटिया सतगुरु, भवसागर तर आयो॥ मीरा के प्रभु गिरिधर नागर, हरख हरख जस गायो॥

Sat ki naav khevatiya satguru, bhavsaagar tar aayo, Meera ke prabhu Giridhar Naagar, harakh harakh jas gaayo.

In the boat of truth, with my guru as the boatman, I have crossed the ocean of worldly life. Meera's Lord is Giridhar Nagar; joyfully, joyfully she sings his glory.
