My carpenter is the Support of the breath of life. ||1||Pause||

This carpenter demands the wages of love, if someone wants Him to build their house.

When one breaks his ties with all the people and relatives, then the carpenter comes of His own accord. ||2||

I cannot describe such a carpenter, who is contained in everything, everywhere.

The mute tastes the most sublime ambrosial nectar, but if you ask him to describe it, he cannot. ||3||

Listen to the virtues of this carpenter, O sister; He stopped the oceans, and established Dhroo as the pole star.

Naam Dayv's Lord Master brought Sita back, and gave Sri Lanka to Bhabheekhan. ||4||2||

SORAT'H, THIRD HOUSE:

The skinless drum plays.

Without the rainy season, the clouds shake with thunder.

Without clouds, the rain falls,

if one contemplates the essence of reality. ||1||

I have met my Beloved Lord.

Meeting with Him, my body is made beauteous and sublime. ||1||Pause||

Touching the philosopher's stone, I have been transformed into gold.

I have threaded the jewels into my mouth and mind.

I love Him as my own, and my doubt has been dispelled.

Seeking the Guru's guidance, my mind is content. ||2||

The water is contained within the pitcher;

I know that the One Lord is contained in all.

The mind of the disciple has faith in the Guru.

Servant Naam Dayv understands the essence of reality. ||3||3||

Raag Sorat'h, The Word Of Devotee Ravi Daas Jee:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

When I am in my ego, then You are not with me. Now that You are with me, there is no egotism within me.

The wind may raise up huge waves in the vast ocean, but they are just water in water. ||1||

O Lord, what can I say about such an illusion?

Things are not as they seem. ||1||Pause||

It is like the king, who falls asleep upon his throne, and dreams that he is a beggar.

His kingdom is intact, but separated from it, he suffers in sorrow. Such is my own condition. ||2||

Section 13 - Raag Sorat'h - Part 064

Like the story of the rope mistaken for a snake, the mystery has now been explained to me.

Like the many bracelets, which I mistakenly thought were gold; now, I do not say what I said then. ||3||

The One Lord is pervading the many forms; He enjoys Himself in all hearts.

Says Ravi Daas, the Lord is nearer than our own hands and feet. Whatever will be, will be. ||4||1||

If I am bound by the noose of emotional attachment, then I shall bind You, Lord, with the bonds of love.

Go ahead and try to escape, Lord; I have escaped by worshipping and adoring You. ||1||

O Lord, You know my love for You.

Now, what will You do? ||1||Pause||

A fish is caught, cut up, and cooked it in many different ways.
