Tumhi Ho Mata Pita Tumhi Ho

तुम्हीं हो माता पिता तुम्हीं हो

The Universal Prayer of Surrender

📚 Bhajan 🪤 God (Paramatma) 🌐 Hindi + English

'Tumhi Ho Mata Pita Tumhi Ho' (तुम्हीं हो माता पिता तुम्हीं हो) is the Hindi poetic adaptation of the famous Sanskrit shloka 'Twameva Mata Cha Pita Twameva'. It is a supreme expression of complete emotional surrender (Sharanagati) to the Divine, recognizing God as the only true relation — mother, father, friend, and companion.

Tumhi Ho Mata Pita Tumhi Ho — तुम्हीं हो माता पिता तुम्हीं हो

तुम्हीं हो माता, पिता तुम्हीं हो। तुम्हीं हो बंधु, सखा तुम्हीं हो॥ तुम्हीं हो माता, पिता तुम्हीं हो। तुम्हीं हो बंधु, सखा तुम्हीं हो॥

⋯ ॐ ⋯

तुम्हीं हो साथी, तुम्हीं सहारे। कोई ना अपना सिवा तुम्हारे॥ तुम्हीं हो नैया, तुम्हीं खेवैया। तुम्हीं हो बंधु, सखा तुम्हीं हो॥

⋯ ॐ ⋯

जो खिल सके ना वो फूल हम हैं। तुम्हारे चरणों की धूल हम हैं॥ दया की दृष्टि सदा ही रखना। तुम्हीं हो बंधु, सखा तुम्हीं हो॥

⋯ ॐ ⋯
