Let us form a partnership, and share our virtues; let us abandon our faults, and walk on the Path.
766
:
1533
Let us wear our virtues like silk clothes; let us decorate ourselves, and enter the arena.
766
:
1534
Let us speak of goodness, wherever we go and sit; let us skim off the Ambrosial Nectar, and drink it in.
766
:
1535
One who has a basket of fragrant virtues, should enjoy its fragrance. ||3||
766
:
1536
He Himself acts; unto whom should we complain? No one else does anything.
766
:
1537
Go ahead and complain to Him, if He makes a mistake.
766
:
1538
If He makes a mistake, go ahead and complain to Him; but how can the Creator Himself make a mistake?
766
:
1539
He sees, He hears, and without our asking, without our begging, He gives His gifts.
766
:
1540
The Great Giver, the Architect of the Universe, gives His gifts. O Nanak, He is the True Lord.
766

He Himself acts; unto whom should we complain? No one else does anything. ||4||1||4||

Soohee, First Mehl:

My mind is imbued with His Glorious Praises; I chant them, and He is pleasing to my mind.
766
:
1544
Truth is the ladder to the Guru; climbing up to the True Lord, peace is obtained.
766
:
1545
Celestial peace comes; the Truth pleases me. How could these True Teachings ever be erased?
766
:
1546
He Himself is Undeceivable; how could He ever be deceived by cleansing baths, charity, spiritual wisdom or ritual bathings?
766
:
1547
Fraud, attachment and corruption are taken away, as are falsehood, hypocrisy and duality.
766
:
1548
My mind is imbued with His Glorious Praises; I chant them, and He is pleasing to my mind. ||1||
766

1549
So praise your Lord and Master, who created the creation.

Churn this Ambrosial Nectar, and drink it in; dedicate this mind to the Guru, and He will value it highly.
766
:
1552
I intuitively realized my God, when I linked my mind to the True Lord.
766
:
1553
I will sing the Lord's Glorious Praises with Him, if it pleases Him; how could I meet Him by being a stranger to Him?
766
:
1554
So praise your Lord and Master, who created the creation. ||2||
766
:
1555
When He comes, what else remains behind? How can there be any coming or going then?
766
:
1556
When the mind is reconciled with its Beloved Lord, it is blended with Him.
766
:
1557
True is the speech of one who is imbued with the Love of his Lord and Master, who fashioned the body fortress from a mere bubble.
766
:
1558
He is the Master of the five elements; He Himself is the Creator Lord. He embellished the body with Truth.
766
:
1559
I am worthless; please hear me, O my Beloved! Whatever pleases You is True.
766
:
1560
One who is blessed with true understanding, does not come and go. ||3||
766
:
1561
Apply such an ointment to your eyes, which is pleasing to your Beloved.
766
:
1562
I realize, understand and know Him, only if He Himself causes me to know Him.
766
:
1563
He Himself shows me the Way, and He Himself leads me to it, attracting my mind.
766
:
1564
He Himself causes us to do good and bad deeds; who can know the value of the Mysterious Lord?
766
:
1565
I know nothing of Tantric spells, magical mantras and hypocritical rituals; enshrining the Lord within my heart, my mind is satisfied.
766
:
1566
The ointment of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is only understood by one who realizes the Lord, through the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||4||
766
:
1567
I have my own friends; why should I go to the home of a stranger?
766
:
1568
My friends are imbued with the True Lord; He is with them, in their minds.
766
:
1569
In their minds, these friends celebrate in happiness; all good karma, righteousness and Dharma, the sixty-eight holy places of pilgrimage, charity and worship, are found in the love of the True Name.
