Raag Prabhaatee - Part 004

1330 : 106
The Creator Himself plays all the games; only a few understand this. ||3||

1330 : 107
Meditate on the Name, and the Word of the Shabad, in the early hours before dawn; leave your worldly entanglements behind.

1330 : 108
Prays Nanak, the slave of God's slaves: the world loses, and he wins. ||4||9||

1330 : 109
Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

1330 : 110
The mind is Maya, the mind is a chaser; the mind is a bird flying across the sky.

1330 : 111
The thieves are overpowered by the Shabad, and then the body-village prospers and celebrates.

1330 : 112
Lord, when You save someone, he is saved; his capital is safe and sound. ||1||

1330 : 113
Such is my Treasure, the Jewel of the Naam;

1330 : 114
please bless me with the Guru's Teachings, so that I may fall at Your Feet. ||1||Pause||

1330 : 115
The mind is a Yogi, the mind is a pleasure-seeker; the mind is foolish and ignorant.

1330 : 116
The mind is the giver, the mind is the beggar; the mind is the Great Guru, the Creator.

1330 : 117
The five thieves are conquered, and peace is attained; such is the contemplative wisdom of God. ||2||

1330 : 118
The One Lord is said to be in each and every heart, but no one can see Him.

1330 : 119
The false are cast upside-down into the womb of reincarnation; without the Name, they lose their honor.

1330 : 120
Those whom You unite, remain united, if it is Your Will. ||3||

1330 : 121
God does not ask about social class or birth; you must find your true home.

1330 : 122
That is your social class and that is your status - the karma of what you have done.

1330 : 123
The pains of death and rebirth are eradicated; O Nanak, salvation is in the Lord's Name. ||4||10||

1330 : 124
Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

1330 : 125
He is awake, and even happy, but he is being plundered - he is blind!

1330 : 126
The noose is around his neck, and yet, his head is busy with worldly affairs.

1330 : 127
In hope, he comes and in desire, he leaves.

1330 : 128
The strings of his life are all tangled up; he is utterly helpless. ||1||

1330 : 129
The Lord of Awareness, the Lord of Life is awake and aware.

Continued...

1330 : 130
He is the Ocean of peace, the Treasure of Ambrosial Nectar. ||1||Pause||

1330 : 131
He does not understand what he is told; he is blind - he does not see, and so he does his evil deeds.

1330 : 132
The Transcendent Lord Himself showers His Love and Affection; by His Grace, He bestows glorious greatness. ||2||

1330 : 133
With the coming of each and every day, his life is wearing away, bit by bit; but still, his heart is attached to Maya.

1330 : 134
Without the Guru, he is drowned, and finds no place of rest, as long as he is caught in duality. ||3||

1330 : 135
Day and night, God watches over and takes care of His living beings; they receive pleasure and pain according to their past actions.

1330 : 136
Nanak, the unfortunate one, begs for the charity of Truth; please bless him with this glory. ||4||11||

1330 : 137
Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

1330 : 138
If I remain silent, the world calls me a fool.

1330 : 139
If I talk too much, I miss out on Your Love.

1330 : 140
My mistakes and faults will be judged in Your Court.

1330 : 141
Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, how can I maintain good conduct? ||1||

1330 : 142
Such is the falsehood which is plundering the world.

1330 : 143
The slanderer slanders me, but even so, I love him. ||1||Pause||

1330 : 144
He alone knows the way, who has been slandered.

1330 : 145
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, he is stamped with the Lord's Insignia in His Court.

1330 : 146
He realizes the Naam, the Cause of causes, deep within himself.

1330 : 147
He alone knows the way, who is blessed by the Lord's Glance of Grace. ||2||

1330 : 148
I am filthy and polluted; the True Lord is Immaculate and Sublime.

1330 : 149
Calling oneself sublime, one does not become exalted.

1330 : 150
The self-willed manmukh openly eats the great poison.

1330 : 151
But one who becomes Gurmukh is absorbed in the Name. ||3||

1330 : 152
I am blind, deaf, foolish and ignorant,
