859 : 2
Raag Gond, Chau-Padas, Fourth Mehl, First House:

859 : 3
If, in his conscious mind, he places his hopes in the Lord, then he shall obtain the fruits of all the many desires of his mind.

859 : 4
The Lord knows everything which happens to the soul. Not even an iota of one's effort goes to waste.

859 : 5
Place your hopes in the Lord, O my mind; the Lord and Master is pervading and permeating all. ||1||

859 : 6
O my mind, place your hopes in the Lord of the World, the Master of the Universe.

859 : 7
That hope which is placed in any other than the Lord - that hope is fruitless, and totally useless. ||1||Pause||

859 : 8
That which you can see, Maya, and all attachment to family - don't place your hopes in them, or your life will be wasted and lost.

859 : 9
Nothing is in their hands; what can these poor creatures do? By their actions, nothing can be done.

859 : 10
O my mind, place your hopes in the Lord, your Beloved, who shall carry you across, and save your whole family as well. ||2||

859 : 11
If you place your hopes in any other, in any friend other than the Lord, then you shall come to know that it is of no use at all.

859 : 12
This hope placed in other friends comes from the love of duality. In an instant, it is gone; it is totally false.

859 : 13
O my mind, place your hopes in the Lord, your True Beloved, who shall approve and reward you for all your efforts. ||3||

859 : 14
Hope and desire are all Yours, O my Lord and Master. As You inspire hope, so are the hopes held.
