Raag Raamkalee - Part 018

893 : 794
If you hear the Naam, the Name of the Lord, you feel like you have been stung by a scorpion. ||2||

893 : 795
You continually yearn for Maya,

893 : 796
and you never chant the Lord's Praises with your mouth.

893 : 797
The Lord is fearless and formless; He is the Great Giver.

893 : 798
But you do not love Him, you fool! ||3||

893 : 799
God, the True King, is above the heads of all kings.

893 : 800
He is the independent, perfect Lord King.

893 : 801
People are intoxicated by emotional attachment, entangled in doubt and family life.

893 : 802
Nanak: they are saved only by Your Mercy, Lord. ||4||21||32||

893 : 803
Raamkalee, Fifth Mehl:

893 : 804
Night and day, I chant the Lord's Name.

Hereafter, I shall obtain a seat in the Court of the Lord.

893 : 806
I am in bliss forever; I have no sorrow.

O Saints of the Lord, seek out those who know God.

893 : 809
You shall be wonderstruck with wonder at the wonderful Lord; meditate in remembrance on the Lord, O mortal, and obtain the supreme status. ||1||Pause||

893 : 810
Calculating, measuring, and thinking in every way,

893 : 811
see that without the Naam, no one can be carried across.

893 : 812
Of all your efforts, none will go along with you.

893 : 813
You can cross over the terrifying world-ocean only through the love of God. ||2||

893 : 814
By merely washing the body, one's filth is not removed.

893 : 815
Afflicted by egotism, duality only increases.

893 : 816
That humble being who takes the medicine of the Name of the Lord, Har, Har

893 : 817
- all his diseases are eradicated. ||3||

893 : 818
Take pity on me, O merciful, Supreme Lord God;

893 : 819
let me never forget the Lord of the World from my mind.

893 : 820
Let me be the dust of the feet of Your slaves;

893 : 821
O God, please fulfill Nanak's hope. ||4||22||33||

893 : 822

You Name, God, is the boat to carry us across.

893 : 828
My mind has grasped Your protection alone. Other than You, I have no place of rest at all. ||1||Pause||

893 : 829
Chanting, meditating on Your Name, I live,

893 : 830
and hereafter, I will obtain a seat in the Court of the Lord.

893 : 831
Pain and darkness are gone from my mind;

893 : 832
my evil-mindedness is dispelled, and I am absorbed in the Lord's Name. ||2||

It brings Truth, contentment and spiritual wisdom.

893 : 844
The Lord entrusts the treasures of peace, intuition and kindness to His devotees. ||1||

893 : 845
This is the treasure of my Lord.

893 : 846
Consuming and expending it, it is never used up. The Lord has no end or limitation. ||1||Pause||

The Saints hold the key to it in their hands. ||2||
