Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Todee

Slave Nanak follows the Path of the Saints; save him, O Lord, this time. ||2||4||9||

Todee, Fifth Mehl:

My tongue sings the Praises of the Lord of the world, the ocean of virtue.

Peace, tranquility, poise and delight well up in my mind, and all sorrows run away. ||1||Pause||

Section 16 - Raag Todee - Part 004

Whatever I ask for, I receive; I serve at the Lord's feet, the source of nectar.

I am released from the bondage of birth and death, and so I cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||1||

Searching and seeking, I have come to understand the essence of reality; the slave of the Lord of the Universe is dedicated to Him.

If you desire eternal bliss, O Nanak, ever remember the Lord in meditation. ||2||5||10||

Todee, Fifth Mehl:

The slanderer, by Guru's Grace, has been turned away.

The Supreme Lord God has become merciful; with Shiva's arrow, He shot his head off. ||1||Pause||

Death, and the noose of death, cannot see me; I have adopted the Path of Truth.

I have earned the wealth, the jewel of the Lord's Name; eating and spending, it is never used up. ||1||

In an instant, the slanderer was reduced to ashes; he received the rewards of his own actions.

Servant Nanak speaks the truth of the scriptures; the whole world is witness to it. ||2||6||11||

Todee, Fifth Mehl:

O miser, your body and mind are full of sin.

In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, vibrate, meditate on the Lord and Master; He alone can cover your sins. ||1||Pause||

When many holes appear in your boat, you cannot plug them with your hands.

Worship and adore the One, to whom your boat belongs; He saves the counterfeit along with the genuine. ||1||

People want to lift up the mountain with mere words, but it just stays there.

Nanak has no strength or power at all; O God, please protect me - I seek Your Sanctuary. ||2||7||12||

Todee, Fifth Mehl:

Meditate on the lotus feet of the Lord within your mind.

The Name of the Lord is the medicine; it is like an axe, which destroys the diseases caused by anger and egotism. ||1||Pause||

The Lord is the One who removes the three fevers; He is the Destroyer of pain, the warehouse of peace.

No obstacles block the path of one who prays before God. ||1||

By the Grace of the Saints, the Lord has become my physician; God alone is the Doer, the Cause of causes.

He is the Giver of perfect peace to the innocent-minded people; O Nanak, the Lord, Har, Har, is my support. ||2||8||13||

Todee, Fifth Mehl:

Chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, forever and ever.

Showering His Kind Mercy, the Supreme Lord God Himself has blessed the town. ||1||Pause||

The One who owns me, has again taken care of me; my sorrow and suffering is past.
