धीरे-धीरे रे मना
धीरे-धीरे रे मना, धीरे सब कुछ होय। माली सींचे सौ घड़ा, ऋतु आए फल होय॥
Kabir
Dhīre Dhīre Re Manā
A patient poem for an impatient world. Everything ripens in its own season.
Why return to it: Kabir answers restlessness with the image of the gardener watering a tree.

Dhīre Dhīre Re Manā
Dhīre-dhīre re manā, dhīre sab kuchh hoy. Mālī sīñche sau ghaṛā, ritu āe phal hoy.
Urdu
دھیرے دھیرے رے منا
دھیرے دھیرے رے منا، دھیرے سب کچھ ہوئے۔ مالی سینچے سو گھڑا، رُت آئے پھل ہوئے۔
English Translation
Poetic English rendering
Slowly, slowly, dear mind; everything ripens in its own hour. The gardener may empty a hundred pots at the roots, but fruit arrives only when the season is ready.
