This is what I could get from:-
http://www.khapre.in/portal/url/hi/sahi ... 5%87).aspx


राम भजनकूं दिया कमलमुख राम भजनकूं दिया |ध्रु o ||
लाख चो-यांशी फेरे फिरकर | सुन्दर नरतनु पाया ||१||
खाया पिया सुखसे सोया | नाहक ज़माना खोया ||२||
जो मुख निशिदिनीं रामनाम नहीं | वहां तुम कछुं नहीं किया ||३||
कहत कबीरा सुन भाई साधु | आया वैसाही गया ||४||

Can't say whether these lines are without any mistakes! Anyway, here is the transliteration attempted by me:-

rAma bhajanakUm diyA kamalamukha rAma bhajanakUm diyA
1. lAkha cOyyAmshI pherE phirkara, sundara naratanu pAyA.
2. khAyA piyA sukhsE sOyA, nAhaka jamAnA khOyA.
3. jO mukha nishidinIm rAmanAma nahIm, vahAm tuma kachum nahIm kiyA.
4. kahata kabIrA suna bhAyI sAdhu, AyA vaisAhI gayA.

Of course, in a few places the lyrics differ from what is rendered by Ranjani-Gayatri.

Request the meaning for this song. Recently heard in Sangeethapriya sung by Vidushi Seetha Narayanan - it's very beautiful in Raag Durga. Now I want the meaning please.

Thanks,
Harish

Meaning for Kabir bhajan
Kabir says"Brother,God has given this beautiful face,to chant His name.We got this human body after taking so many births.But you have wasted your life by simply eating and sleeping.You have not chantedRama naam .you came to the world and without doing any thing good to yourself you are going.I am asking you to do Ram bhajan,in you own good only"

Thanks Jaisundar - what's the meaning of phrase Kamal mukh Ram - does the poet refer to mukh or Sri Ram or does he refer to our mukh (mouths) are meant to sing praise of Sri Rama?
