TRANSLATION
I have found, yes, I have found the wealth of the gem of chanting the Holy Name.
- My true spiritual master gave me a priceless thing. With his grace, I accepted it.
I found the treasure of my several births; I have lost the whole rest of the world.
No one can spend it, no one can steal it. Day by day it increases one and a quarter times.
On the boat of truth, the boatman was my true guru. I came across the ocean of existence.
The Lord of Mira Bai is the Courtly Lord Giridhara , of whom I merrily, merrily sing His glories.
REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:
The song presented above is the original bhajan Mira Bai had written. Many people, incorrectly, know of this song as “ payoji
maine
rāma
ratana
dhana
payo ” which means “yes, indeed, I have attained the jewel of Lord Rama .” It is often rendered in Raga Pahadi in Bhajani
Tala .
