બેઠક Bethak

હિંદુ કહે સો હમ બડે, મુસલમાન કહે હમ; એક મુંગકી દો ફાડ હય, કોન જાદે કાણ કમ; કોન જાદે કોન કમ, કબી કરનાં નહીં કજીઆ, એક ભગત હે રામ, દુજા રહેમાનસે રહ્યા; કહે દીન દરવેશ, સરિતા મિલતી સિંધુ, સબકા સાહેબ એક, એક મુસલમાન એક હિંદુ.

hiṁdu kahē sō hama baḍē, musalamāna kahē hama; ēka muṁgakī dō phāḍa haya, kōna jādē kāṇa kama; kōna jādē kōna kama, kabī karanāṁ nahīṁ kajīā, ēka bhagata hē rāma, dujā rahēmānasē rahyā; kahē dīna daravēśa, saritā milatī siṁdhu, sabakā sāhēba ēka, ēka musalamāna ēka hiṁdu.

Literally
The Hindu says 'we are great', the Muslim says 'we'; they are two halves of a single mung bean, who is more and who is less; who is more and who is less, never quarrel, one is a devotee of Ram, the other remains with Rehman; says the poor dervish, rivers meet the ocean, everyone's Lord is one, whether Muslim or Hindu;
What it means
Hindus and Muslims are fundamentally equal and share the same divine origin, making religious conflicts pointless.

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
