Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Tilang

- when Azraa-eel, the Messenger of Death seizes you, what good will these be to you then? ||3||

The Pure Lord God knows your condition.

O Nanak, recite your prayer to the holy people. ||4||1||

Tilang, Second House, Fifth Mehl:

There is no other than You, Lord.

You are the Creator; whatever You do, that alone happens.

You are the strength, and You are the support of the mind.

Forever and ever, meditate, O Nanak, on the One. ||1||

The Great Giver is the Supreme Lord God over all.

You are our support, You are our sustainer. ||Pause||

Section 18 - Raag Tilang - Part 004

You are, You are, and You shall ever be, O inaccessible, unfathomable, lofty and infinite Lord.

Those who serve You, are not touched by fear or suffering.

By Guru's Grace, O Nanak, sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||2||

Whatever is seen, is Your form, O treasure of virtue, O Lord of the Universe, O Lord of incomparable beauty.

Remembering, remembering, remembering the Lord in meditation, His humble servant becomes like Him.

O Nanak, by His Grace, we obtain Him. ||3||

I am a sacrifice to those who meditate on the Lord.

Associating with them, the whole world is saved.

Says Nanak, God fulfills our hopes and aspirations.

I long for the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||4||2||

Tilang, Fifth Mehl, Third House:

Merciful, the Lord Master is Merciful.

My Lord Master is Merciful.

He gives His gifts to all beings. ||Pause||

Why do you waver, O mortal being? The Creator Lord Himself shall protect you.

He who created you, will also give you nourishment. ||1||

The One who created the world, takes care of it.

In each and every heart and mind, the Lord is the True Cherisher. ||2||

His creative potency and His value cannot be known; He is the Great and carefree Lord.

O human being, meditate on the Lord, as long as there is breath in your body. ||3||

O God, You are all-powerful, inexpressible and imperceptible; my soul and body are Your capital.

By Your Mercy, may I find peace; this is Nanak's lasting prayer. ||4||3||

Tilang, Fifth Mehl, Third House:

O Creator, through Your creative potency, I am in love with You.

You alone are my spiritual and temporal Lord; and yet, You are detached from all Your creation. ||Pause||

In an instant, You establish and disestablish. Wondrous is Your form!

Who can know Your play? You are the Light in the darkness. ||1||

You are the Master of Your creation, the Lord of all the world, O Merciful Lord God.

One who worships You day and night - why should he have to go to hell? ||2||

Azraa-eel, the Messenger of Death, is the friend of the human being who has Your support, Lord.

His sins are all forgiven; Your humble servant gazes upon Your Vision. ||3||
