Maaroo, First Mehl:

1038 : 2082
Wherever I look, I see the Lord, merciful to the meek.

1038 : 2083
God is compassionate; He does not come or go in reincarnation.

1038 : 2084
He pervades all beings in His mysterious way; the Sovereign Lord remains detached. ||1||

1038 : 2085
The world is a reflection of Him; He has no father or mother.

1038 : 2086

1038 : 2087
There is no creation or destruction for Him; He has no ancestry or social status. The Ageless Lord is pleasing to my mind. ||2||

1038 : 2089
You are the unseen inaccessible and detached Primal Lord.

1038 : 2090
You are true and content; the Word of Your Shabad is cool and soothing. Through it, we are lovingly, intuitively attuned to You. ||3||

1038 : 2091
The three qualities are pervasive; the Lord dwells in His home, the fourth state.

1038 : 2092
He has made death and birth into a bite of food.

1038 : 2093
The immaculate Light is the Life of the whole world. The Guru reveals the unstruck melody of the Shabad. ||4||

1038 : 2094
Sublime and good are those humble Saints, the Beloveds of the Lord.

1038 : 2095
They are intoxicated with the sublime essence of the Lord, and are carried across to the other side.

1038 : 2096
Nanak is the dust of the Society of the Saints; by Guru's Grace, he finds the Lord. ||5||

1038 : 2097
You are the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts. All beings belong to You.
