Lyrics

[Which is how I got into music of India, which is very open that way, for some time when the major and the minor, major scale and minor scale, no, what I want to say is not that at all. The music of India.
It's a whole other realm
And that brings us to this next tune we're going to do. "Jab Hare Taneen Nahin" by Kabir. The path, yeah.
Where was my root note? I think it was down here. It's "Jab Maintha Haree Nahin"]

अभरी है नेन नहीं
रेम्गली आती संकारे
यामे लोह समये नहीं
जाब में था

Hari nahin abhari hai nain nahin
Prangali athi sankhare yame do sama de nahin
When my ego was there
The divine in me could not be there
Then the divine showed up, and my ego had to be kicked out
Because this lover's lane is very narrow, the two can't both be there at the same time

चाब में ता हरे नहीं
आप हरी है नहीं नहीं
प्रम गली अती संखारे
यह में दो सम्येव है

[Kabir from the 1400s. Beautiful]
