Lyrics:

Moko kahan dhundhere bande 

mein to tere paas mein

Na teerath mein, 

na moorat mein na ekant niwas mein

na mandir mein, 

na masjid mein na kabe kailas mein

Moko kahan dhundhere bande 

Na mein jap mein, 

na mein tap mein na mein barat upaas mein

na mein kiriya karm mein rehta 

nahin jog sanyas mein

Moko kahan dhundhere bande 

Khoji hoye turat mil jaoon ik pal ki talas mein

kahet kabir suno bhai sadho mein to hun vishwas mein

Moko kahan dhundhere bande 

mein to tere paas mein
