मेरी नैइया पार लगा दो, मेरी नैइया पार लगा दो
ओ बाबा देवराहा ..
भवजल से उद्धार करा दो, भवजल से उद्धार करा दो
ओ बाबा देवराहा ..
मेरी नैया पार लगा दो, ओ बाबा देवराहा

बीच भँवर में नाव पड़ी है, बीच भँवर में नाव पड़ी है
रात अँधेरी और तूफानी ....
अब तो आकर राह दिखा दो. अब तो आकर राह दिखा दो
ओ बाबा देवराहा ...
मेरी नैइया पार लगा दो, ओ बाबा देवराहा

जीवन मेरी नाव पुरानी, जीवन मेरी नाव पुरानी
भरता जाए पल पल पानी..
अब तो आकार बाँह पकड़ लो, अब तो आकार बाँह पकड़ लो
ओ बाबा देवराहा ..
मेरी नैया पार लगा दो, ओ बाबा देवराहा

मन की लहरें शोर मचायें, मन की लहरें शोर मचायें
मन मेरा डगमग हो जाय....
माया मोह की दुनिया मेरी, माया मोह की दुनिया मेरी
हर पल मुझको पास बुलाय....
मेरी मन की प्यास बुझा दो, ओ बाबा देवराहा
मेरी नैइया पार लगा दो, ओ बाबा देवराहा

भक्त को मोह नहीं जीने का, भक्त को मोह नहीं जीने का
केवल छोभ बिछुड़ने का है ......
आधा जीवन बीत चूका है , बाकी आधा कहाँ कहाँ है
ले लो अपनी पूर्ण शरण में, ले लो अपनी पूर्ण शरण में
ओ बाबा देवराहा ..
मेरी नैया पार लगा दो, ओ बाबा देवराहा |

O' Baba Devraha, O' my Guru, I pray to you,
Please take my boat across the river!
Please deliver me from this ocean of mundane existence.
O' Baba Devraha, I pray to you,
Please take my boat across the river!

My boat is now trapped in the mid of the vortex in the river,
and I am not able to find the way to come out,
(means: I have surrounded by the adversities, and
I am not able to come out from this difficult situation.)
It is very hard to stand anymore against all these adversities,
Please come to show me the way, O' Guru, Please come!
Please make my boat come out from this vortex!

My boat has been old (I have already lived long here, and),
slowly and slowly, the water is coming into this old boat,
(means: slowly and quitely, I am slipping in the mouth of death,
so now I am very fearful),
So I pray to You, O' my Guru -
Please take hold of my arms now, please take hold of my arms now,
to save me! O' Baba Devraha, O' my Guru, I pray to you,
Please take my boat across the river!

Worldly waves come in my mind and make a lot of noise,
they shake my steadfastness in devotion (in Rama),
this world of 'mine' (Main aur Mera) which is full of Maya and Moha (attachment and ignorance)
distracts me a lot, lures me always!
Please, make my heart satisfied and passionless from worldy attachments,
(so that I could do devotion of lord).
O' Baba Devraha, O' my Guru, I pray to you,
Please take my boat across the river!

O' Guru Ji, However whatever be the extent of attachment, I have for the world,
Still I don't have wish to live here in this world without you,
I have only one sorrow now i.e. separation from you,
I have already spent quite a good amount of time here in this world, and I don't know where and how I have to spend the rest of time,
So I pray to you, my Guru Ji,
Please take me in your recourse, please take me in your recourse,
O' my Guru, I pray to you,
Please take my boat across the river!
