You are the richest of the rich, generous and unattached. With my ears, I listen to Your Praises.

From whom should I beg? I see that all are beggars. My salvation comes only from You. ||1||

You blessed Jai Dayv, Naam Dayv and Sudaamaa the Brahmin with Your infinite mercy.

Says Kabeer, You are the All-powerful Lord, the Great Giver; in an instant, You bestow the four great blessings. ||2||7||

BILAAVAL:

He has a walking stick, ear-rings, a patched coat and a begging bowl.

Wearing the robes of a beggar, he wanders around, deluded by doubt. ||1||

Section 20 - Raag Bilaaval - Part 063

Abandon your Yogic postures and breath control exercises, O madman.

Renounce fraud and deception, and meditate continuously on the Lord, O madman. ||1||Pause||

That which you beg for, has been enjoyed in the three worlds.

Says Kabeer, the Lord is the only Yogi in the world. ||2||8||

BILAAVAL:

This Maya has made me forget Your feet, O Lord of the World, Master of the Universe.

Not even a bit of love wells up in Your humble servant; what can Your poor servant do? ||1||Pause||

Cursed is the body, cursed is the wealth, and cursed is this Maya; cursed, cursed is the clever intellect and understanding.

Restrain and hold back this Maya; overcome it, through the Word of the Guru's Teachings. ||1||

What good is farming, and what good is trading? Worldly entanglements and pride are false.

Says Kabeer, in the end, they are ruined; ultimately, Death will come for them. ||2||9||

BILAAVAL:

Within the pool of the body, there is an incomparably beautiful lotus flower.

Within it, is the Supreme Light, the Supreme Soul, who has no feature or form. ||1||

O my mind, vibrate, meditate on the Lord, and forsake your doubt. The Lord is the Life of the World. ||1||Pause||

Nothing is seen coming into the world, and nothing is seen leaving it.

Where the body is born, there it dies, like the leaves of the water-lily. ||2||

Maya is false and transitory; forsaking it, one obtains peaceful, celestial contemplation.

Says Kabeer, serve Him within your mind; He is the Enemy of ego, the Destroyer of demons. ||3||10||

BILAAVAL:

The illusion of birth and death is gone; I lovingly focus on the Lord of the Universe.

In my life, I am absorbed in deep silent meditation; the Guru's Teachings have awakened me. ||1||Pause||

The sound made from bronze, that sound goes into the bronze again.

But when the bronze is broken, O Pandit, O religious scholar, where does the sound go then? ||1||

I gaze upon the world, the confluence of the three qualities; God is awake and aware in each and every heart.

Such is the understanding revealed to me; within my heart, I have become a detached renunciate. ||2||

I have come to know my own self, and my light has merged in the Light.
