Vaishnav jan to tene kahiye je
PeeD paraayi jaaNe re
Par-dukhkhe upkaar kare toye
Man abhimaan na aaNe re
Vaishnav...
        SakaL lok maan sahune vande
        Nindaa na kare keni re
        Vaach kaachh man nishchaL raakhe
        Dhan-dhan janani teni re
        Vaishnav...
        Sam-drishti ne trishna tyaagi
        Par-stree jene maat re
        Jivha thaki asatya na bole
        Par-dhan nav jhaalee haath re
        Vaishnav...

        Moh-maaya vyaape nahi jene
        DriDh vairaagya jena man maan re
        Ram naam shoon taaLi laagi
        SakaL tirath tena tan maan re
        Vaishnav...

        VaN-lobhi ne kapaT-rahit chhe
        Kaam-krodh nivaarya re
        BhaNe Narsaiyyo tenun darshan karta
        KuL ekoter taarya re
        Vaishnav...

Translation –
One who is a vaishnav
Knows the pain of others
Does good to others, esp. to those ones who are in misery
Does not let pride enter his mind

A Vaishnav, Tolerates and praises the the entire world
Does not say bad things about anyone
Keeps his/her words, actions and thoughts pure
O Vaishnav, your mother is blessed (dhanya-dhanya)

A Vaishnav sees everything equally, rejects greed and avarice
Considers some one else's wife/daughter as his mother
The toungue may get tired, but will never speak lies
Does not even touch someone else's property

A Vaishnav does not succumb to worldly attachments
Who has devoted himself to stauch detachment to worldly pleasures
Who has been edicted to the elixir coming by the name of Ram
For whom all the religious sites are in the mind

Who has no greed and deciet
Who has renounced lust of all types and anger
The poet Narsi will like to see such a person
By who's virtue, the entire family gets salvation
