Raag Maaroo - Part 017

1005 : 616
False is all his talk of me and you.

1005 : 617
The Lord Himself administers the poisonous potion, to mislead and delude.

1005 : 618
O Nanak, the the karma of past actions cannot be erased. ||2||

1005 : 619
Beasts, birds, demons and ghosts

1005 : 620
- in these many ways, the false wander in reincarnation.

1005 : 621
Wherever they go, they cannot remain there.

1005 : 622
They have no place of rest; they rise up again and again and run around.

1005 : 623
Their minds and bodies are filled with immense, expansive desires.

1005 : 624
The poor wretches are cheated by egotism.

1005 : 625
They are filled with countless sins, and are severely punished.

1005 : 626
The extent of this cannot be estimated.

1005 : 627
Forgetting God, they fall into hell.

1005 : 628
There are no mothers there, no siblings, no friends and no spouses.

1005 : 629
Those humble beings, unto whom the Lord and Master becomes Merciful,

1005 : 630
O Nanak, cross over. ||3||

1005 : 631
Rambling and roaming, wandering around, I came to seek the Sanctuary of God.

1005 : 632
He is the Master of the meek, the father and mother of the world.

1005 : 633
The Merciful Lord God is the Destroyer of sorrow and suffering.

1005 : 634
He emancipates whoever He pleases.

1005 : 635
He lifts them up and pulls him out of the deep dark pit.

1005 : 636
Emancipation comes through loving devotional worship.

1005 : 637
The Holy Saint is the very embodiment of the Lord's form.

1005 : 638
He Himself saves us from the great fire.

1005 : 639
By myself, I cannot practice meditation, austerities, penance and self-discipline.

1005 : 640
In the beginning and in the end, God is inaccessible and unfathomable.

1005 : 641
Please bless me with Your Name, Lord; Your slave begs only for this.

1005 : 642
O Nanak, my Lord God is the Giver of the true state of life. ||4||3||19||

1005 : 643
Maaroo, Fifth Mehl:

1005 : 644
Why do you try to deceive others, O people of the world? The Fascinating Lord is Merciful to the meek. ||1||

1005 : 645
This is what I have come to know.

1005 : 646
The brave and heroic Guru, the Generous Giver, gives Sanctuary and preserves our honor. ||1||Pause||

1005 : 647
He submits to the Will of His devotees; He is forever and ever the Giver of peace. ||2||

1005 : 648
Please bless me with Your Mercy, that I may meditate on Your Name alone. ||3||

1005 : 649
Nanak, the meek and humble, begs for the Naam, the Name of the Lord; it eradicates duality and doubt. ||4||4||20||

1005 : 650
Maaroo, Fifth Mehl:

1005 : 651
My Lord and Master is utterly powerful.

1005 : 652
I am just His poor servant. ||1||

1005 : 653
My Enticing Beloved is very dear to my mind and my breath of life.

1005 : 654
He blesses me with His gift. ||1||Pause||

1005 : 655
I have seen and tested all.

1005 : 656
There is none other than Him. ||2||

1005 : 657
He sustains and nurtures all beings.

1005 : 658
He was, and shall always be. ||3||

1005 : 659
Please bless me with Your Mercy, O Divine Lord,

1005 : 660
and link Nanak to Your service. ||4||5||21||

1005 : 661
Maaroo, Fifth Mehl:

1005 : 662
The Redeemer of sinners, who carries us across; I am a sacrifice, a sacrifice, a sacrifice, a sacrifice to Him.

1005 : 663
If only I could meet with such a Saint, who would inspire me to meditate on the Lord, Har, Har, Har. ||1||

1005 : 664
No one knows me; I am called Your slave.

1005 : 665
This is my support and sustenance. ||1||Pause||

1005 : 666
You support and cherish all; I am meek and humble - this is my only prayer.

1005 : 667
You alone know Your Way; You are the water, and I am the fish. ||2||

1005 : 668
O Perfect and Expansive Lord and Master, I follow You in love.

1005 : 669
O God, You are pervading all the worlds, solar systems and galaxies. ||3||
