Significance & Importance
Nirgun bhajans in the Kabir tradition represent the most profound dimension of Bhojpuri spiritual culture, questioning idol worship and outward ritual in favour of direct inner experience of the divine. Rooted in the Varanasi-Patna corridor of the Gangetic plain, this sant vani tradition has nourished Bhojpuri-speaking seekers for centuries. The Nirguna Brahman — formless, nameless, beyond all attributes — is the ultimate reality pointed to in every verse.
English Transliteration
Jab tak jeeyav tab tak jap le Raam ke naam,
Bin Raam ke jeevan khaali nikamma kaam.
Na ghar ke na ghaat ke rahal jaai re,
Jo aail ba jaai re jaai re.
Maati se banal baate kaaya ee hamaar,
Maati mein mili jaai ee sansaar.
Man ke bharam chhodo re bhaai,
Saanch ke raahe par chalo bhaai.
Padh padh pandit bhaile par gyaan na bhail,
Man ke mail na dhoilas kahaan Raam milal.
Antar ke diya jaraavo re bhaai,
Tab milihe Raam tohara bhaai.
Na mandir mein na math mein milihe,
Je khoje man ke bheetar paaihe.
Kaaya ke bheetar Brahm biraaje,
Satnaam ke bhajan se man gaaje.
