Soohee, First Mehl, Sixth House:

729 : 26
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

729 : 27
Bronze is bright and shiny, but when it is rubbed, its blackness appears.

729 : 28
Washing it, its impurity is not removed, even if it is washed a hundred times. ||1||

729 : 29
They alone are my friends, who travel along with me;

729 : 30
and in that place, where the accounts are called for, they appear standing with me. ||1||Pause||

729 : 31
There are houses, mansions and tall buildings, painted on all sides;

729 : 32
but they are empty within, and they crumble like useless ruins. ||2||

729 : 33
The herons in their white feathers dwell in the sacred shrines of pilgrimage.

729 : 34
They tear apart and eat the living beings, and so they are not called white. ||3||

729 : 35
My body is like the simmal tree; seeing me, other people are fooled.

729 : 36
Its fruits are useless - just like the qualities of my body. ||4||

729 : 37
The blind man is carrying such a heavy load, and his journey through the mountains is so long.

729 : 38
My eyes can see, but I cannot find the Way. How can I climb up and cross over the mountain? ||5||

729 : 39
What good does it do to serve, and be good, and be clever?

729 : 40
O Nanak, contemplate the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and you shall be released from bondage. ||6||1||3||

729 : 41
Soohee, First Mehl:

729 : 42
Build the raft of meditation and self-discipline, to carry you across the river.

729 : 43
There will be no ocean, and no rising tides to stop you; this is how comfortable your path shall be. ||1||

729 : 44
Your Name alone is the color, in which the robe of my body is dyed. This color is permanent, O my Beloved. ||1||Pause||

729 : 45
My beloved friends have departed; how will they meet the Lord?

Continued...

729 : 46
If they have virtue in their pack, the Lord will unite them with Himself. ||2||

729 : 47
Once united with Him, they will not be separated again, if they are truly united.

729 : 48
The True Lord brings their comings and goings to an end. ||3||

729 : 49
One who subdues and eradicates egotism, sews the robe of devotion.

729 : 50
Following the Word of the Guru's Teachings, she receives the fruits of her reward, the Ambrosial Words of the Lord. ||4||

729 : 51
Says Nanak, O soul-brides, our Husband Lord is so dear!

729 : 52
We are the servants, the hand-maidens of the Lord; He is our True Lord and Master. ||5||2||4||

729 : 53
Soohee, First Mehl:

729 : 54
Those whose minds are filled with love of the Lord, are blessed and exalted.

729 : 55
They are blessed with peace, and their pains are forgotten.

729 : 56
He will undoubtedly, certainly save them. ||1||

729 : 57
The Guru comes to meet those whose destiny is so pre-ordained.

729 : 58
He blesses them with the Teachings of the Ambrosial Name of the Lord.

729 : 59
Those who walk in the Will of the True Guru, never wander begging. ||2||

729 : 60
And one who lives in the Mansion of the Lord's Presence, why should he bow down to any other?

729 : 61
The gate-keeper at the Lord's Gate shall not stop him to ask any questions.

729 : 62
And one who is blessed with the Lord's Glance of Grace - by his words, others are emancipated as well. ||3||

729 : 63
The Lord Himself sends out, and recalls the mortal beings; no one else gives Him advice.

729 : 64
He Himself demolishes, constructs and creates; He knows everything.

729 : 65
O Nanak, the Naam, the Name of the Lord is the blessing, given to those who receive His Mercy, and His Grace. ||4||3||5||
