ja-o tum girivar ta-o ham moraa.  
ja-o tum chand ta-o ham bha-ay hai chakoraa. ||1||  
maaDhvay tum na torahu ta-o ham nahee toreh.  
tum si-o tor kavan si-o joreh. ||1|| rahaa-o.  

ja-o tum deevraa ta-o ham baatee.  
ja-o tum tirath ta-o ham jaatee. ||2||  

saachee pareet ham tum si-o joree.  
tum si-o jor avar sang toree. ||3||  

jah jah jaa-o tahaa tayree sayvaa.  
tum so thaakur a-or na dayvaa. ||4||  

tumray bhajan kateh jam faaNsaa.  
bhagat hayt gaavai ravidaasaa. ||5||5||  


If You are the mountain, Lord, then I am the peacock.
If You are the moon, then I am the partridge in love with it. ||1||
O Lord, if You will not break with me, then I will not break with You.
For, if I were to break with You, with whom would I then join? ||1||Pause||

If You are the lamp, then I am the wick.
If You are the sacred place of pilgrimage, then I am the pilgrim. ||2||

I am joined in true love with You, Lord.
I am joined with You, and I have broken with all others. ||3||

Wherever I go, there I serve You.
There is no other Lord Master than You, O Divine Lord. ||4||

Meditating, vibrating upon You, the noose of death is cut away.
To attain devotional worship, Ravi Daas sings to You, Lord. ||5||5||
