Hari gun gavat | हरि गुन गावत

📜 Original Hindi Lyrics:

हरि गुन गावत नाचूंगी॥ध्रु०॥
आपने मंदिरमों बैठ बैठकर। गीता भागवत बाचूंगी॥१॥
ग्यान ध्यानकी गठरी बांधकर। हरीहर संग मैं लागूंगी॥२॥
मीराके प्रभु गिरिधर नागर। सदा प्रेमरस चाखुंगी॥३॥

कृति: संत मीरा बाई


🔤 English Transliteration:

Hari gun gavat nachungi ||dhru||
Apne mandirmon baith baithkar, Geeta Bhagavat bachungi ||1||
Gyaan dhyanki gathari baandhkar, Harihar sang main lagungi ||2||
Meerake Prabhu Giridhar Nagar, sada premras chakhungi ||3||

Lyrics: Saint Meera Bai


🌸 English Meaning:

I will sing the glories of Hari and dance in joy. ||Chorus||
Sitting in His temple, I will recite the Gita and the Bhagavat. ||1||
Carrying the bundle of knowledge and meditation, I will remain close to Hari and Hara. ||2||
To Giridhar Nagar, the Lord of Meera, I will forever taste the nectar of divine love. ||3||


🪔 Reflection:

This bhajan of Saint Meera Bai reflects her unshakable devotion and joyous surrender to Lord Krishna. Meera, the 16th-century saint-poet from Rajasthan, lived a life immersed in bhakti despite social opposition and hardships. Her songs are not mere poetry; they are living expressions of her union with Krishna, whom she lovingly called Giridhar Nagar. In this song, Meera proclaims that singing Hari’s glories and dancing in devotion is her ultimate path. She emphasizes the role of scriptures like the Gita and Bhagavat, not as intellectual texts, but as companions in her divine journey. Carrying the "bundle of knowledge and meditation," she indicates that true wisdom lies in living every moment with awareness of God. The central message here is the transforming power of love—where rituals, learning, and practices find their fulfillment in the bliss of surrender. For devotees today, this bhajan is a reminder that devotion is not confined to words or rituals, but blossoms fully when celebrated with song, dance, knowledge, and love.
