Jis Nagri Thakur Jas Naahi

**1 ਜਿਸ ਨਗਰੀ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਜਸੁ ਨਾਹੀਂ,
2 ਸੋ ਕਾਕਰ ਕੂਕਰ ਬਸਤੀ ਹੈ ।

3 ਅਗਰ ਚੰਦਨ ਕੀ ਸਾਰੁ ਨ ਜਾਣੈ,
4 ਪਾਥਰ ਸੇਤੀ ਘਸਤੀ ਹੈ ।

5 ਛੈਲਾਂ ਸੇਤੀ ਘੁੰਘਟ ਕਾਢੇ,
6 ਬੈਲਾਂ ਸੇਤੀ ਹਸਤੀ ਹੈ ।

7 ਕਹੈ ਹੁਸੈਨ ਫ਼ਕੀਰ ਸਾਂਈਂ ਦਾ,
8 ਸਵਾ ਸੇਰ ਕੀ ਮਸਤੀ ਹੈ ।** 

**1 جس نگری ٹھاکر جسُ ناہیں سو کاکر کوکر بستی ہے ۔2

3 اگر چندن کی سارُ ن جانے 4 پاتھر سیتی گھستی ہے ۔

5 چھیلاں سیتی گھونگھٹ کاڈھے 6 بیلاں سیتی ہنستی ہے ۔

7 کہےَ حسین فقیر سانئیں دا 8 سوا سیر کی مستی ہے ۔**
