Soohee, Fifth Mehl, Gunvantee ~ The Worthy And Virtuous Bride:

763 : 1426
When I see a Sikh of the Guru, I humbly bow and fall at his feet.

763 : 1427
I tell to him the pain of my soul, and beg him to unite me with the Guru, my Best Friend.

763 : 1428
I ask that he impart to me such an understanding, that my mind will not go out wandering anywhere else.

763 : 1429
I dedicate this mind to you. Please, show me the Path to God.

763 : 1430
I have come so far, seeking the Protection of Your Sanctuary.

763 : 1431
Within my mind, I place my hopes in You; please, take my pain and suffering away!

763 : 1432
So walk on this Path, O sister soul-brides; do that work which the Guru tells you to do.

763 : 1433
Abandon the intellectual pursuits of the mind, and forget the love of duality.

763 : 1434
In this way, you shall obtain the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan; the hot winds shall not even touch you.

763 : 1435
By myself, I do not even know how to speak; I speak all that the Lord commands.

763 : 1436
I am blessed with the treasure of the Lord's devotional worship; Guru Nanak has been kind and compassionate to me.

763 : 1437
I shall never again feel hunger or thirst; I am satisfied, satiated and fulfilled.

763 : 1438
When I see a Sikh of the Guru, I humbly bow and fall at his feet. ||3||

763 : 1439
Raag Soohee, Chhant, First Mehl, First House:

763 : 1440
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

763 : 1441
Intoxicated with the wine of youth, I did not realize that I was only a guest at my parents' home (in this world).

Continued...

763 : 1442
My consciousness is polluted with faults and mistakes; without the Guru, virtue does not even enter into me.

763 : 1443
I have not known the value of virtue; I have been deluded by doubt. I have wasted away my youth in vain.

763 : 1444
I have not known my Husband Lord, His celestial home and gate, or the Blessed Vision of His Darshan. I have not had the pleasure of my Husband Lord's celestial peace.

763 : 1445
After consulting the True Guru, I have not walked on the Path; the night of my life is passing away in sleep.

763 : 1446
O Nanak, in the prime of my youth, I am a widow; without my Husband Lord, the soul-bride is wasting away. ||1||

763 : 1447
O father, give me in marriage to the Lord; I am pleased with Him as my Husband. I belong to Him.

763 : 1448
He is pervading throughout the four ages, and the Word of His Bani permeates the three worlds.

763 : 1449
The Husband Lord of the three worlds ravishes and enjoys His virtuous brides, but He keeps the ungraceful and unvirtuous ones far away.

763 : 1450
As are our hopes, so are our minds' desires, which the All-pervading Lord brings to fulfillment.

763 : 1451
The bride of the Lord is forever happy and virtuous; she shall never be a widow, and she shall never have to wear dirty clothes.

763 : 1452
O Nanak, I love my True Husband Lord; my Beloved is the same, age after age. ||2||

763 : 1453
O Baba, calculate that auspicious moment, when I too shall be going to my in-laws' house.

763 : 1454
The moment of that marriage will be set by the Hukam of God's Command; His Will cannot be changed.

763 : 1455
The karmic record of past deeds, written by the Creator Lord, cannot be erased by anyone.

763 : 1456
The most respected member of the marriage party, my Husband, is the independent Lord of all beings, pervading and permeating the three worlds.

763 : 1457
Maya, crying out in pain, leaves, seeing that the bride and the groom are in love.

763 : 1458
O Nanak, the peace of the Mansion of God's Presence comes through the True Word of the Shabad; the bride keeps the Guru's Feet enshrined in her mind. ||3||
