Raag Jaitsree - Part 010

705 : 316
Shalok:

705 : 317
Whatever I wish for, that I receive.

705 : 318
Meditating on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, Nanak has found total peace. ||4||

705 : 319
Chhant:

705 : 320
My mind is now emancipated; I have joined the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

705 : 321
As Gurmukh, I chant the Naam, and my light has merged into the Light.

705 : 322
Remembering the Lord's Name in meditation, my sins have been erased; the fire has been extinguished, and I am satisfied.

705 : 323
He has taken me by the arm, and blessed me with His kind mercy; He has accepted me His own.

705 : 324
The Lord has hugged me in His embrace, and merged me with Himself; the pains of birth and death have been burnt away.

705 : 325
Prays Nanak, He has blessed me with His kind mercy; in an instant, He unites me with Himself. ||4||2||

705 : 326
Jaitsree, Chhant, Fifth Mehl:

705 : 327
The world is like a temporary way-station, but it is filled with pride.

705 : 328
People commit countless sins; they are dyed in the color of the love of Maya.

705 : 329
In greed, emotional attachment and egotism, they are drowning; they do not even think of dying.

705 : 330
Children, friends, worldly occupations and spouses - they talk of these things, while their lives are passing away.

705 : 331
When their pre-ordained days have run their course, O mother, they behold the Messengers of the Righteous Judge of Dharma, and they suffer.

705 : 332
The karma of their past deeds cannot be erased, O Nanak, if they have not earned the wealth of the Lord's Name. ||1||

705 : 333
He makes all sorts of efforts, but he does not sing the Lord's Name.

705 : 334
He wanders around in countless incarnations; he dies, only to be born again.

705 : 335
As beasts, birds, stones and trees - their number cannot be known.

Continued...

705 : 336
As are the seeds he plants, so are the pleasures he enjoys; he receives the consequences of his own actions.

705 : 337
He loses the jewel of this human life in the gamble, and God is not pleased with him at all.

705 : 338
Prays Nanak, wandering in doubt, he does not find any rest, even for an instant. ||2||

705 : 339
Youth has passed, and old age has taken its place.

705 : 340
The hands tremble, the head shakes, and the eyes do not see.

705 : 341
The eyes do not see, without vibrating and meditating on the Lord; he must leave behind the attractions of Maya, and depart.

705 : 342
He burnt his mind and body for his relatives, but now, they do not listen to him, and they throw dust on his head.

705 : 343
Love for the infinite, Perfect Lord does not abide in his mind, even for an instant.

705 : 344
Prays Nanak, the fort of paper is false - it is destroyed in an instant. ||3||

705 : 345
Nanak has come to the Sanctuary of the Lord's lotus feet.

705 : 346
God Himself has carried Him across the impassable, terrifying world-ocean.

705 : 347
Joining the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I vibrate and meditate on the Lord; God has made me His own, and saved me.

705 : 348
The Lord has approved of me, and blessed me with His Name; He did not take anything else into consideration.

705 : 349
I have found the infinite Lord and Master, the treasure of virtue, which my mind had yearned for.

705 : 350
Prays Nanak, I am satisfied forever; I have eaten the food of the Lord's Name. ||4||2||3||

705 : 351
Jaitsree, Fifth Mehl, Vaar With Shaloks:

705 : 352
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

705 : 353
Shalok:

705 : 354
In the beginning, He was pervading; in the middle, He is pervading; in the end, He will be pervading. He is the Transcendent Lord.

705 : 355
The Saints remember in meditation the all-pervading Lord God. O Nanak, He is the Destroyer of sins, the Lord of the universe. ||1||
