Raag Kalyaan - Part 007

1325 : 197
Those who have terrible luck and bad fortune do not drink in the water which washes the dust of the feet of the Holy.

1325 : 198
The burning fire of their desires is not extinguished; they are beaten and punished by the Righteous Judge of Dharma. ||6||

1325 : 199
You may visit all the sacred shrines, observe fasts and sacred feasts, give generously in charity and waste away the body, melting it in the snow.

1325 : 200
The weight of the Lord's Name is unweighable, according to the Guru's Teachings; nothing can equal its weight. ||7||

1325 : 201
O God, You alone know Your Glorious Virtues. Servant Nanak seeks Your Sanctuary.

1325 : 202
You are the Ocean of water, and I am Your fish. Please be kind, and keep me always with You. ||8||3||

1325 : 203
Kalyaan, Fourth Mehl:

1325 : 204
I worship and adore the Lord, the All-pervading Lord.

1325 : 205
I surrender my mind and body, and place everything before Him; following the Guru's Teachings, spiritual wisdom is implanted within me. ||1||Pause||

1325 : 206
God's Name is the tree, and His Glorious Virtues are the branches. Picking and gathering up the fruit, I worship Him.

1325 : 207
The soul is divine; divine is the soul. Worship Him with love. ||1||

1325 : 208
One of keen intellect and precise understanding is immaculate in all this world. In thoughtful consideration, he drinks in the sublime essence.

1325 : 209
By Guru's Grace, the treasure is found; dedicate this mind to the True Guru. ||2||

1325 : 210
Priceless and utterly sublime is the Diamond of the Lord. This Diamond pierces the diamond of the mind.

1325 : 211
The mind becomes the jeweller, through the Word of the Guru's Shabad; it appraises the Diamond of the Lord. ||3||

1325 : 212
Attaching oneself to the Society of the Saints, one is exalted and uplifted, as the palaas tree is absorbed by the peepal tree.

1325 : 213
That mortal being is supreme among all people, who is perfumed by the fragrance of the Lord's Name. ||4||

1325 : 214
One who continually acts in goodness and immaculate purity, sprouts green branches in great abundance.

1325 : 215
The Guru has taught me that Dharmic faith is the flower, and spiritual wisdom is the fruit; this fragrance permeates the world. ||5||

1325 : 216
The One, the Light of the One, abides within my mind; God, the One, is seen in all.

1325 : 217
The One Lord, the Supreme Soul, is spread out everywhere; all place their heads beneath His Feet. ||6||

1325 : 218
Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, people look like criminals with their noses cut off; bit by bit, their noses are cut off.

1325 : 219
The faithless cynics are called egotistical; without the Name, their lives are cursed. ||7||

1325 : 220
As long as the breath breathes through the mind deep within, hurry and seek God's Sanctuary.

1325 : 221
Please shower Your Kind Mercy and take pity upon Nanak, that he may wash the feet of the Holy. ||8||4||

1325 : 222
Kalyaan, Fourth Mehl:

1325 : 223
O Lord, I wash the feet of the Holy.

1325 : 224
May my sins be burnt away in an instant; O my Lord and Master, please bless me with Your Mercy. ||1||Pause||

1325 : 225
The meek and humble beggars stand begging at Your Door. Please be generous and give to those who are yearning.

1325 : 226
Save me, save me, O God - I have come to Your Sanctuary. Please implant the Guru's Teachings, and the Naam within me. ||1||

1325 : 227
Sexual desire and anger are very powerful in the body-village; I rise up to fight the battle against them.

1325 : 228
Please make me Your Own and save me; through the Perfect Guru, I drive them out. ||2||

1325 : 229
The powerful fire of corruption is raging violently within; the Word of the Guru's Shabad is the ice water which cools and soothes.
