Raag Jaitsree - Part 008

703 : 236
The Jewel of the Lord is deep within my heart, but I do not have any knowledge of Him.

703 : 237
O servant Nanak, without vibrating, meditating on the Lord God, human life is uselessly wasted and lost. ||2||1||

703 : 238
Jaitsree, Ninth Mehl:

703 : 239
O Dear Lord, please, save my honor!

703 : 240
The fear of death has entered my heart; I cling to the Protection of Your Sanctuary, O Lord, ocean of mercy. ||1||Pause||

703 : 241
I am a great sinner, foolish and greedy; but now, at last, I have grown weary of committing sins.

703 : 242
I cannot forget the fear of dying; this anxiety is consuming my body. ||1||

703 : 243
I have been trying to liberate myself, running around in the ten directions.

703 : 244
The pure, immaculate Lord abides deep within my heart, but I do not understand the secret of His mystery. ||2||

703 : 245
I have no merit, and I know nothing about meditation or austerities; what should I do now?

703 : 246
O Nanak, I am exhausted; I seek the shelter of Your Sanctuary; O God, please bless me with the gift of fearlessness. ||3||2||

703 : 247
Jaitsree, Ninth Mehl:

703 : 248
O mind, embrace true contemplation.

703 : 249
Without the Lord's Name, know that this whole world is false. ||1||Pause||

703 : 250
The Yogis are tired of searching for Him, but they have not found His limit.

703 : 251
You must understand that the Lord and Master is near at hand, but He has no form or feature. ||1||

703 : 252
The Naam, the Name of the Lord is purifying in the world, and yet you never remember it.

703 : 253
Nanak has entered the Sanctuary of the One, before whom the whole world bows down; please, preserve and protect me, by Your innate nature. ||2||3||

703 : 254
Jaitsree, Fifth Mehl, Chhant, First House:

Continued...

703 : 255
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

703 : 256
Shalok:

703 : 257
I am thirsty for the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan, day and night; I yearn for Him constantly, night and day.

703 : 258
Opening the door, O Nanak, the Guru has led me to meet with the Lord, my Friend. ||1||

703 : 259
Chhant:

703 : 260
Listen, O my intimate friend - I have just one prayer to make.

703 : 261
I have been wandering around, searching for that enticing, sweet Beloved.

703 : 262
Whoever leads me to my Beloved - I would cut off my head and offer it to him, even if I were granted the Blessed Vision of His Darshan for just an instant.

703 : 263
My eyes are drenched with the Love of my Beloved; without Him, I do not have even a moment's peace.

703 : 264
My mind is attached to the Lord, like the fish to the water, and the rainbird, thirsty for the raindrops.

703 : 265
Servant Nanak has found the Perfect Guru; his thirst is totally quenched. ||1||

703 : 266
O intimate friend, my Beloved has all these loving companions; I cannot compare to any of them.

703 : 267
O intimate friend, each of them is more beautiful than the others; who could consider me?

703 : 268
Each of them is more beautiful than the others; countless are His lovers, constantly enjoying bliss with Him.

703 : 269
Beholding them, desire wells up in my mind; when will I obtain the Lord, the treasure of virtue?

703 : 270
I dedicate my mind to those who please and attract my Beloved.

703 : 271
Says Nanak, hear my prayer, O happy soul-brides; tell me, what does my Husband Lord look like? ||2||

703 : 272
O intimate friend, my Husband Lord does whatever He pleases; He is not dependent on anyone.
