I came accross the following lyrics and I like to know the context and the meaning.
yeh garv bharA mastak mEraa, prabhu charan dhUl tak jhuk nE dE
ahamkAr vikAr bharE mann kO, nij nAm kee mAlA jap nE dE
yeh garv bharA............
mein man kee mail ko dho naa sakA, yeh jIvan teraa ho na saka
aa ho naa sakA mai premi hou itna naa jhukA
girbhee jo padou tho utnE dE
yeh garv bharA............
mein gyAn kee baatoM me khOya, aur karm hINa padkar sOya(2)
jab ankh khulee toh man roya, jab sOye mujhko jagne dE
yeh garv bharA............
jaisaa hUm mein khOta ya khara, nirdosh sharan mein aa tho gaya
aa aa tho gaya
ik baar yeh kehde khAli ja, yAh prit kee rit jhalak nE dE
yeh garv bharA............
yeh garv bharA

This, AFAIK, is Hari Om Saran's own sahitya. I do not know whether there is any specific context for this song. Broad meaning is as under -
This my conceit-filled head, O Lord!
May it bow unto the dust of thy holy feet;
My impure ego-filled mind,
May it count the rosary of thy holy names.
I couldn't wash the dirt of my mind;
This (my) life couldn't become Yours - yes, it couldn't become;
I am Your lover - don't bend me so much;
Even if I fall down, let me get up
I lost myself in discussions of jnAna;
I slept a lot bereft of action (karma);
I wept a lot when my eyes opened (realised);
I am yet asleep; may I wake up.
I may be useless or hard; but
I somehow reached Your Sanctifying feet;
Either say 'go back empty handed'; or
Shower Your affection, aplenty.
