Agaraga

The Radio Edit of "Agaraga" by Nick Vernier Band ft. Janaki, Iason Chronis and Matt Malley. The full length version of this song (on iTunes) contains an extended instrumental coda, featuring dueling violin and mohan veena.

The poem in this song presents the words of Mansur Mastana. Lyrics plus translation follow below:

Agar hai shauka milne ka, to hardam lau lagata ja
Jalakar khudanumai ko, bhasama tana para lagata ja

If you want to merge with your most passionate Longing, you need to keep directing everything towards It
Let this I burn in the fire, and smear its ashes on the body

Pakara kada ishka ki jadu, sapha kara hizrai dil ko
Dui ki dhul ko lekar, musalle para udata ja

Pick up the broom of Love, and sweep your heart clean
Take the dusts of duality and blow them out all over your prayer mat

Na ho Mulla, na ho bamman, dui ki choda kar puja
Hukam hai shah kalandara ka, analhaka tu kahata ja

Dont become a Mulla or a Brahman (Muslim and Hindu priests), leave duality behind as you worship
The emperor of Freedom has this command: Keep telling yourself: Analhak (I am God)

Kahe mansura mastana, haka maine dila me pahachana
Wahi maston ka mayakhana, usi ke beecha ata ja

(The poet of this prayer) Mansur Mastana says, I have recognized God within my own heart
That is where the ecstatic beings dwell, make sure to keep their company
