Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Sorat'h

The Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam, is the sweetest juice; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, its taste is revealed. ||Pause||

The Beloved is Himself the place of pilgrimage and the raft; God Himself ferries Himself across.

The Beloved Himself casts the net over all the world; the Lord Himself is the fish.

The Beloved Himself is infallible; He makes no mistakes. There is no other like Him to be seen. ||2||

The Beloved Himself is the Yogi's horn, and the sound current of the Naad; He Himself plays the tune.

The Beloved Himself is the Yogi, the Primal Being; He Himself practices intense meditation.

He Himself is the True Guru, and He Himself is the disciple; God Himself imparts the Teachings. ||3||

The Beloved Himself inspires us to chant His Name, and He Himself practices meditation.

The Beloved Himself is the Ambrosial Nectar; He Himself is the juice of it.

The Beloved Himself praises Himself; servant Nanak is satisfied, with the sublime essence of the Lord. ||4||3||

Sorat'h, Fourth Mehl:

God Himself is the balance scale, He Himself is the weigher, and He Himself weighs with the weights.

He Himself is the banker, He Himself is the trader, and He Himself makes the trades.

The Beloved Himself fashioned the world, and He Himself counter-balances it with a gram. ||1||

My mind meditates on the Lord, Har, Har, and finds peace.

The Name of the Beloved Lord, Har, Har, is a treasure; the Perfect Guru has made it seem sweet to me. ||Pause||

The Beloved Himself is the earth, and He Himself is the water; He Himself acts, and causes others to act.

The Beloved Himself issues His Commands, and keeps the water and the land bound down.

The Beloved Himself instills the Fear of God; He binds the tiger and the goat together. ||2||

Section 13 - Raag Sorat'h - Part 012

The Beloved Lord Himself is the firewood, and He Himself keeps the fire within the wood.

The Beloved Lord Himself, all by Himself, permeates them, and because of the Fear of God, the fire cannot burn the wood.

The Beloved Himself kills and revives; all draw the breath of life, given by Him. ||3||

The Beloved Himself is power and presence; He Himself engages us in our work.

As the Beloved makes me walk, I walk, as it pleases my Lord God.

The Beloved Himself is the musician, and the musical instrument; servant Nanak vibrates His vibration. ||4||4||

Sorat'h, Fourth Mehl:

The Beloved Himself created the Universe; He made the light of the sun and the moon.

The Beloved Himself is the power of the powerless; He Himself is the honor of the dishonored.

The Beloved Himself grants His Grace and protects us; He Himself is wise and all-knowing. ||1||

O my mind, chant the Name of the Lord, and receive His Insignia.
