Sukh ke sab saathee

Sukh ke sab saathee
dukhmė na koee
Mere raam, mere raam
Teraa naam hai saachaa
doojaa na koee

Jeevan aanee jaanee chhaayaa
Jhooṭhee maayaa jhooṭhee kaayaa
Phir kaahe ko saaree umariyaa
Paap kee gaṭharee ḍhoee

Naa kuchha teraa naa kuchha meraa
ye jag jogeevaalaa pheraa
Raajaa ho yaa ranka sabheekaa
anta eka saa hoee

Baaharakee too maaṭee phaȧke
Man ke bheetar kyoȯ na jhaȧke
Ujale tanpar maan kiyaa aur
Man kee maila na dhoee

In happiness everyone is your companion, but, when you are in sorrow, no one is your friend. The solitary real companion is God.

Life is coming and going, like an illusion. Everything is maaya. With this understanding, why should I continue my whole life to fetch a bundle of sins?

Nothing is real, therefore nothing is everlasting. Nothing belongs to any one of us. The whole world is just an illusion, therefore whether you are a king or a beggar, the same fate awaits everyone.

The body and the outer world are all mere matter. There is no true reality to these. But, deep within the mind the truth and reality can be found. However, we have misused the body and dirtied the mind with our egos. Clean the mind and the truth will be revealed.

Gopi (1970); Mohammed Rafi
