Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Raamkalee

- just so, the humble servant of the Lord loves the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. ||2||

As the farmer protects his fields;

as the mother and father show compassion to their child;

as the lover merges on seeing the beloved;

just so does the Lord hug His humble servant close in His Embrace. ||3||

As the blind man is in ecstasy, when he can see again;

and the mute, when he is able to speak and sing songs;

and the cripple, being able to climb over the mountain

- just so, the Name of the Lord saves all. ||4||

As cold is dispelled by fire,

sins are driven out in the Society of the Saints.

As cloth is cleaned by soap,

just so, by chanting the Naam, all doubts and fears are dispelled. ||5||

As the chakvi bird longs for the sun,

as the rainbird thirsts for the rain drop,

as the deer's ears are attuned to the sound of the bell,

the Lord's Name is pleasing to the mind of the Lord's humble servant. ||6||

Section 22 - Raag Raamkalee - Part 040

By Your Grace, we love You.

When You show Mercy, then You come into our minds.

When the Support of the earth granted His Grace,

then I was released from my bonds. ||7||

I have seen all places with my eyes wide open.

There is no other than Him.

Doubt and fear are dispelled, by Guru's Grace.

Nanak sees the wondrous Lord everywhere. ||8||4||

Raamkalee, Fifth Mehl:

All beings and creatures that are seen, God, depend on Your Support. ||1||

This mind is saved through the Name of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

In an instant, He establishes and disestablishes, by His Creative Power. All is the Creation of the Creator. ||2||

Sexual desire, anger, greed, falsehood and slander are banished in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||3||

Chanting the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the mind becomes immaculate, and life is passed in absolute peace. ||4||

That mortal who enters the Sanctuary of the devotees, does not lose out, here or hereafter. ||5||

Pleasure and pain, and the condition of this mind, I place before You, Lord. ||6||

You are the Giver of all beings; You cherish what You have made. ||7||

So many millions of times, Nanak is a sacrifice to Your humble servants. ||8||5||

Raamkalee, Fifth Mehl, Ashtapadee:

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

Receiving the Blessed Vision of His Darshan, all sins are erased, and He unites me with the Lord. ||1||

My Guru is the Transcendent Lord, the Giver of peace.

He implants the Naam, the Name of the Supreme Lord God within us; in the end, He is our help and support. ||1||Pause||

The source of all pain within is destroyed; I apply the dust of the feet of the Saints to my forehead. ||2||
