Lyrics
Chorus
O palanhaare, nirgun aur nyaare
O Nurturer, formless and unique
O palanhaare, nirgun aur nyaare
O Nurturer, formless and unique
Tumre bin hamra kauno naahin
Without You we have no one
Hamri uljhan suljhao Bhagwan
Unravel our troubles, O God
Tumre bin hamra kauno naahin
Without You we have no one
Tumhi hamka ho sambhale
You alone take care of us
Tumhi hamre rakhwale
You alone are our guardian
Tumre bin hamra kauno naahin
Without You we have no one
Verse 1
Chanda mein tumhi to bhare ho chaandni
In the moon You fill the moonlight
Sooraj mein ujala tumhi se
In the sun the brightness is from You
Yeh gagan hai magan
This sky is blissful —
Tumhi to diye ho ise taare
You gave it its stars
Bhagwan, yeh jeevan
O God, if You do not shape this life
Tumhi na sanwaroge
Then who will shape it?
To kya koi sanware
O Nurturer, formless and unique
O palanhaare, nirgun aur nyaare
Without You we have no one
Tumre bin hamra kauno naahin
Verse 2
If You will listen, Lord — this is our plea
Jo suno to kahe, Prabhuji hamri hai binti
Give patience to those who suffer
Dukhi jan ko dheeraj do
Let them never be defeated by sorrow
Haare nahin woh kabhi dukh se
Protect the weak
Tum nirbal ko raksha do
So the weak may live in peace
Reh paaye nirbal sukh se
Give strength to devotion
Bhakti ko shakti do
O Master of the world
Jag ke jo Swami ho
Hear this small request
Itni to araj suno
There is darkness on the path
Hain path mein andhiyaare
Grant light as Your blessing
De do vardaan mein ujiyaare
Closing
O Nurturer, formless and unique
O palanhaare, nirgun aur nyaare
Without You we have no one
Tumre bin hamra kauno naahin
Unravel our troubles, O God
Hamri uljhan suljhao Bhagwan
Without You we have no one
Tumre bin hamra kauno naahin
O Nurturer
O palanhaare
Meaning
From Lagaan (2001) — prayer to the divine Nurturer (A.R. Rahman / Javed Akhtar). Without You we have no one; unravel our troubles, protect the weak, and give light on a dark path.
