Raag Prabhaatee - Part 005

1331 : 153
the lowest of the low, the worst of the worst.

1331 : 154
I am poor, but I have the Wealth of Your Name, O my Beloved.

1331 : 155
This is the most excellent wealth; all else is poison and ashes. ||4||

1331 : 156
I pay no attention to slander and praise; I contemplate the Word of the Shabad.

1331 : 157
I celebrate the One who blesses me with His Bounty.

1331 : 158
Whomever You forgive, O Lord, is blessed with status and honor.

1331 : 159
Says Nanak, I speak as He causes me to speak. ||5||12||

1331 : 160
Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

1331 : 161
Eating too much, one's filth only increases; wearing fancy clothes, one's home is disgraced.

1331 : 162
Talking too much, one only starts arguments. Without the Name, everything is poison - know this well. ||1||

1331 : 163
O Baba, such is the treacherous trap which has caught my mind;

1331 : 164
riding out the waves of the storm, it will be enlightened by intuitive wisdom. ||1||Pause||

1331 : 165
They eat poison, speak poison and do poisonous deeds.

1331 : 166
Bound and gagged at Death's door, they are punished; they can be saved only through the True Name. ||2||

1331 : 167
As they come, they go. Their actions are recorded, and go along with them.

1331 : 168
The self-willed manmukh loses his capital, and is punished in the Court of the Lord. ||3||

1331 : 169
The world is false and polluted; only the True One is Pure. Contemplate Him through the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

1331 : 170
Those who have God's spiritual wisdom within, are known to be very rare. ||4||

1331 : 171
They endure the unendurable, and the Nectar of the Lord, the Embodiment of Bliss, trickles into them continuously.

1331 : 172
O Nanak, the fish is in love with the water; if it pleases You, Lord, please enshrine such love within me. ||5||13||

1331 : 173
Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

1331 : 174
Songs, sounds, pleasures and clever tricks;

1331 : 175
joy, love and the power to command;

1331 : 176
fine clothes and food - these have no place in one's consciousness.

1331 : 177
True intuitive peace and poise rest in the Naam. ||1||

Continued...

1331 : 178
What do I know about what God does?

1331 : 179
Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, nothing makes my body feel good. ||1||Pause||

1331 : 180
Yoga, thrills, delicious flavors and ecstasy;

1331 : 181
wisdom, truth and love all come from devotion to the Lord of the Universe.

1331 : 182
My own occupation is to work to praise the Lord.

1331 : 183
Deep within, I dwell on the Lord of the sun and the moon. ||2||

1331 : 184
I have lovingly enshrined the love of my Beloved within my heart.

1331 : 185
My Husband Lord, the Lord of the World, is the Master of the meek and the poor.

1331 : 186
Night and day, the Naam is my giving in charity and fasting.

1331 : 187
The waves have subsided, contemplating the essence of reality. ||3||

1331 : 188
What power do I have to speak the Unspoken?

1331 : 189
I worship You with devotion; You inspire me to do so.

1331 : 190
You dwell deep within; my egotism is dispelled.

1331 : 191
So whom should I serve? There is no other than You. ||4||

1331 : 192
The Word of the Guru's Shabad is utterly sweet and sublime.

1331 : 193
Such is the Ambrosial Nectar I see deep within.

1331 : 194
Those who taste this, attain the state of perfection.

1331 : 195
O Nanak, they are satisfied, and their bodies are at peace. ||5||14||

1331 : 196
Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

1331 : 197
Deep within, I see the Shabad, the Word of God; my mind is pleased and appeased. Nothing else can touch and imbue me.

1331 : 198
Day and night, God watches over and cares for His beings and creatures; He is the Ruler of all. ||1||

1331 : 199
My God is dyed in the most beautiful and glorious color.

1331 : 200
Merciful to the meek and the poor, my Beloved is the Enticer of the mind; He is so very sweet, imbued with the deep crimson color of His Love. ||1||Pause||

1331 : 201
The Well is high up in the Tenth Gate; the Ambrosial Nectar flows, and I drink it in.

1331 : 202
The creation is His; He alone knows its ways and means. The Gurmukh contemplates spiritual wisdom. ||2||
