Dhanya Teri Kartaar Kala Ka

An Indian bhajan, but from a smaller tradition that is not often sung in Parthi (the nirgun/Sant tradition). Lyrics express gratitude and awe at the beauty of the Lord's creation. Song starts around 1:30 into the track.

Dhanya Teri Kartaar Kala Ka, Paar Nahi Koi Paata Hai

Glory to Your Arts, O Creator, no one can ever surpass them 

Niraakaar Bhi Hokar Swami, Sabka Paalan Karta hai
Niraakaar Nirbandhan Swami, Janam Maran Nahin Darta hai

Swami/God is without Form, but cares for all creation
He is beyond form, beyond limitations, unbound by birth or death 

Teri Sada Ka Khel Nirala, Birla mehram paata hai
Jin par Kripa bhayi nij teri, Vako Darsh Dikhaata Hai

Your eternal Playfulness is beyond comprehension 
Only those who have received Your grace are blessed by Your Darshan

Rishi muni aur sant mahatma nis din dhyaan lagaata hai
Char khand chaurasi ke mahi, Tuhi nazar ek aata hai

Saints, sages, and great souls contemplate You day and night 
Throughout all stages of life, through 84 million births, Your Gaze falls equally upon all 

Patte Patte par roshni teri Bijli si chamka dikhaata hai
Chakit bhaya man buddhi teri Jeevadas guni gaata hai

Upon every leaf, your Radiance shines like lightning 
You have illuminated our minds and hearts, sings Jeevadas
