Vaishnav Jan to tene kahiye je - the lyrics and their meaning

It's a beautiful song. I always liked to hum it. Never got to understand it's meaning. If you omit the link it makes between a Vaishnav religion and the name here, I think it talks of the kind of life a human being is expected to live...should live. No matter what your religion is! 

You can hear the song as you read on, here -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLbqn7hmOo0

The English meaning is inline to the Hindi Verses.
