DOWN THE AGES, THE EARTH AND THE SKY HAVE BEEN SINGING:
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati, wahaa.n bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n, bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n bhagwaan…
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
waise toh har ek naaree,
IN A MANNER, EVERY WOMAN
hai ek chamaktaa taaraa,
IS A SHINING STAR,
lekin hai sati voh chandaa,
BUT A VIRTUOUS WOMAN IS THAT MOON
jo har letaa andhiyaara,
THAT DRIVES THE DARKNESS AWAY,
satiyo.n kee har kathaa se miltaa,
FROM EVERY STORY OF FAITHFUL WIVES IS FOUND
sab ko yeh hee gyaan,
ONLY THIS KNOWLEDGE FOR ALL!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n, bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n bhagwaan…
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jo nahee.n kisee se haaraa,
THE ONE WHO’S NEVER LOST TO ANYONE,
voh kaal bhee sati se haaraa,
EVEN THAT DEATH LOST OUT TO A SUTTEE!
jaise jal kee boo.ndo.n se,
JUST AS THE DROPS OF WATER
bujh jaataa hai angaaraa,
EXTINGUISH THE BURNING EMBER!
honee Tal saktee naa TooTtee,
FATE CAN BE EVADED; WHAT NEVER SHATTERS IS
magar sati kee aan,
BUT THE DIGNITY OF A SUTTEE!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n, bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n bhagwaan…
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
apnee pooja bhaktee se,
FROM HER WORSHIP AND DEVOTION
patee ko parmeshwar kartee,
SHE MAKES A GOD OUT OF THE HUSBAND!
har tirth wahee.n ban jaataa,
EVERY PLACE OF PILGRIMAGE IS ESTABLISHED THERE ITSELF,
pag sati jahaa.n bhee dhartee,
WHEREVER THE SUTTEE PLACES HER FOOT!
satyam shivam sundaram jaisaa,
JUST AS THE TRUTH IS ETERNAL AND BEAUTIFUL,
sati ka sach hai mahaa.n,
GREAT IS THE TRUTH OF A SUTTEE!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n, bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati, wahaa.n bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati wahaa.n, bhagwaan,
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
jahaa.n sati, wahaa.n bhagwaan.
WHERE THERE’S A VIRTUOUS WOMAN, THERE IS GOD!
