Binu santosh na kam nasahin
Chaupai 1, Under Doha 90 · Uttar Kand
Chaupai Text
बिनु संतोष न काम नसाहीं। काम अछत सुख सपनेहुँ नाहीं॥ राम भजन बिनु मिटहिं कि कामा। थल बिहीन तरु कबहुँ कि जामा॥ १ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
binu santoṣa na kāma nasāhīṃ। kāma achata sukha sapanēhuṃ nāhīṃ॥ rāma bhajana binu miṭahiṃ ki kāmā। thala bihīna taru kabahuṃ ki jāmā॥ 1 ॥
Meaning
Without contentment, desire cannot be destroyed, and as long as desire remains, there can be no happiness even in a dream. Can desires ever be removed without devotion to Shri Ram? Can a tree grow anywhere without soil?
