Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Bhairao

I have spontaneously realized the Eternal, Unchanging Lord.

Spontaneously, all wisdom and knowledge has welled up within me.

Spontaneously, the Support of the Lord, Har, Har, has come into my hands. ||7||

Spontaneously, God has recorded my pre-ordained destiny.

Spontaneously, the One Lord and Master God has met me.

Spontaneously, all my cares and worries have been taken away.

Nanak, Nanak, Nanak, has merged into the Image of God. ||8||3||6||

Bhairao, The Word Of The Devotees, Kabeer Jee, First House:

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

The Name of the Lord - this alone is my wealth.

I do not tie it up to hide it, nor do I sell it to make my living. ||1||Pause||

The Name is my crop, and the Name is my field.

As Your humble servant, I perform devotional worship to You; I seek Your Sanctuary. ||1||

The Name is Maya and wealth for me; the Name is my capital.

I do not forsake You; I do not know any other at all. ||2||

The Name is my family, the Name is my brother.

The Name is my companion, who will help me in the end. ||3||

One whom the Lord keeps detached from Maya

- says Kabeer, I am his slave. ||4||1||

Naked we come, and naked we go.

No one, not even the kings and queens, shall remain. ||1||

Section 28 - Raag Bhairao - Part 034

The Sovereign Lord is the nine treasures for me.

The possessions and the spouse to which the mortal is lovingly attached, are Your wealth, O Lord. ||1||Pause||

They do not come with the mortal, and they do not go with him.

What good does it do him, if he has elephants tied up at his doorway? ||2||

The fortress of Sri Lanka was made out of gold,

but what could the foolish Raawan take with him when he left? ||3||

Says Kabeer, think of doing some good deeds.

In the end, the gambler shall depart empty-handed. ||4||2||

Brahma is polluted, and Indra is polluted.

The sun is polluted, and the moon is polluted. ||1||

This world is polluted with pollution.

Only the One Lord is Immaculate; He has no end or limitation. ||1||Pause||

The rulers of kingdoms are polluted.

Nights and days, and the days of the month are polluted. ||2||

The pearl is polluted, the diamond is polluted.

Wind, fire and water are polluted. ||3||

Shiva, Shankara and Mahaysh are polluted.

The Siddhas, seekers and strivers, and those who wear religious robes, are polluted. ||4||

The Yogis and wandering hermits with their matted hair are polluted.

The body, along with the swan-soul, is polluted. ||5||

Says Kabeer, those humble beings are approved and pure, who know the Lord. ||6||3||

Let your mind be Mecca, and your body the temple of worship.

Let the Supreme Guru be the One who speaks. ||1||

O Mullah, utter the call to prayer.
