नाही पुण्याची मोजणी
नाही पापाची टोचणी
जिणे गंगौघाचे पाणी। 1||
कशाचा न लागभाव
कशाचा न पाठलाग
आम्ही हो फुलांचे पराग 2||
आम्हा नाही नाम-रूप
आम्ही आकाश स्वरूप
जसा निळा निळा धूप 3||
पुजेतल्या पानाफुला
मृत्यू सर्वांग सोहळा
धन्य निर्माल्याची कळा 4||

🌸 English Meaning:
No one keeps count of good or bad deeds; life flows as freely and purely as the waters of the Ganga. ||1||
We have no attachments or desires—we are like the gentle pollen of flowers, carried by the wind. ||2||
We have no fixed name or form; our true nature is vast and open, like the blue sky or a wisp of incense. ||3||
Just as flowers offered in worship complete their purpose, death too becomes a sacred offering—pure and beautiful. ||4||
📜 Historical note: The music for this bhajan was composed and sung by Pandit Jitendra Abhisheki, a major 20th-century Hindustani vocalist and composer who helped revive Marathi musical theatre and blended classical and devotional idioms. The lyricist credited for the poem is Ba. Bha. Borkar (Ba. Bh. Borkar).
🪔 Reflection :
This bhajan teaches that true spirituality is not about counting good and bad deeds, but about surrendering with a pure heart. The image of the Ganga reminds us that cleansing happens within, not through moral calculations. When the poet says “we are not name or form,” it means that our real nature is vast and boundless—like the open sky or the soft glow of incense. The verse about flowers and death reminds us that all outer rituals are temporary; what truly matters is the purity that remains when everything else fades.
In simple terms, the song invites us to live lightly—to let go of pride, possessions, and even fixed identities. It shows that devotion is not about doing more, but about being more open and gentle. In daily life, it could mean speaking with kindness, helping without expecting praise, or facing challenges calmly. How does this message speak to you? What part of this bhajan reflects your own journey?
Singer: Pt. Jitendra Abhisheki.
