पायो जी मैंने राम रतन धन पायो। वस्तु अमोलक दी मेरे सतगुरु, किरपा कर अपनायो ॥
जनम जनम की पूँजी पाई, जग में सभी खुवायो। खरचै नहिं कोई चोर न लूटे, दिन-दिन बढ़त सवायो ॥
सत की नाव खेवटिया सतगुरु, भवसागर तर आयो। मीरा के प्रभु गिरिधर नागर, हरख-हरख जस गायो ॥
I have found the priceless jewel — the wealth that is Ram. My true guru, in grace, granted me this treasure. It is the wealth of countless lifetimes, while the world has lost all. Spending does not exhaust it, thieves cannot steal it; day by day it only multiplies.
Mirabai (c. 1498–1547), Rajput princess and saint-poet, devoted her life to Krishna. One of her most loved bhajans.
