Meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, and imbue yourself with this most excellent color. ||1||Pause||
O my tongue, other occupations are false.
The state of Nirvaanaa comes only through the Lord's Name. ||2||
The performance of countless millions of other devotions
is not equal to even one devotion to the Name of the Lord. ||3||
Prays Naam Dayv, this is my occupation.
O Lord, Your Forms are endless. ||4||1||
One who stays away from others' wealth and others' spouses
- the Lord abides near that person. ||1||
Those who do not meditate and vibrate on the Lord
- I do not even want to see them. ||1||Pause||
Those whose inner beings are not in harmony with the Lord,
are nothing more than beasts. ||2||
Prays Naam Dayv, a man without a nose
does not look handsome, even if he has the thirty-two beauty marks. ||3||2||
Naam Dayv milked the brown cow, and brought a cup of milk and a jug of water to his family god. ||1||
"Please drink this milk, O my Sovereign Lord God.
Drink this milk and my mind will be happy.
Otherwise, my father will be angry with me."||1||Pause||
Taking the golden cup, Naam Dayv filled it with the ambrosial milk,
and placed it before the Lord. ||2||
The Lord looked upon Naam Dayv and smiled. "This one devotee abides within my heart."||3||
The Lord drank the milk, and the devotee returned home.
Section 28 - Raag Bhairao - Part 040
Thus did Naam Dayv come to receive the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan. ||4||3||
I am crazy - the Lord is my Husband.
I decorate and adorn myself for Him. ||1||
Slander me well, slander me well, slander me well, O people.
My body and mind are united with my Beloved Lord. ||1||Pause||
Do not engage in any arguments or debates with anyone.
With your tongue, savor the Lord's sublime essence. ||2||
Now, I know within my soul, that such an arrangement has been made;
I will meet with my Lord by the beat of the drum. ||3||
Anyone can praise or slander me.
Naam Dayv has met the Lord. ||4||4||
Sometimes, people do not appreciate milk, sugar and ghee.
Sometimes, they have to beg for bread from door to door.
Sometimes, they have to pick out the grain from the chaff. ||1||
As the Lord keeps us, so do we live, O Siblings of Destiny.
The Lord's Glory cannot even be described. ||1||Pause||
Sometimes, people prance around on horses.
Sometimes, they do not even have shoes for their feet. ||2||
Sometimes, people sleep on cozy beds with white sheets.
Sometimes, they do not even have straw to put down on the ground. ||3||
Naam Dayv prays, only the Naam, the Name of the Lord, can save us.
One who meets the Guru, is carried across to the other side. ||4||5||
