In my mind, I wish, hope and beg for the Society of the Lord's humble servants.
Be Merciful to Nanak, O God, and lead him to the feet of Your slaves. ||4||2||42||
Soohee, Fifth Mehl:
She has enticed the worlds and solar systems; I have fallen into her clutches.
O Lord, please save this corrupt soul of mine; please bless me with Your Name. ||1||Pause||
She has not brought anyone peace, but still, I chase after her.
She forsakes everyone, but still, I cling to her, again and again. ||1||
Have Mercy on me, O Lord of Compassion; please let me sing Your Glorious Praises, O Lord.
This is Nanak's prayer, O Lord, that he may join and merge with the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||2||3||43||
Section 19 - Raag Soohee - Part 019
Raag Soohee, Fifth Mehl, Fifth House, Partaal:
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:
Love of the enticing Beloved Lord is the most glorious love.
Meditate, O mind, on the One Lord of the Universe - nothing else is of any account. Attach your mind to the Saints, and abandon the path of duality. ||1||Pause||
The Lord is absolute and unmanifest; He has assumed the most sublime manifestation. He has fashioned countless body chambers of many, varied, different, myriad forms.
Within them, the mind is the policeman;
my Beloved lives in the temple of my inner self.
He plays there in ecstasy.
He does not die, and he never grows old. ||1||
He is engrossed in worldly activities, wandering around in various ways. He steals the property of others,
and is surrounded by corruption and sin.
But now, he joins the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy,
and stands before the Lord's Gate.
He obtains the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan.
Nanak has met the Guru;
he shall not be reincarnated again. ||2||1||44||
Soohee, Fifth Mehl:
The Lord has made this world a stage;
He fashioned the expanse of the entire creation. ||1||Pause||
He fashioned it in various ways, with limitless colors and forms.
He watches over it with joy, and He never tires of enjoying it.
He enjoys all the delights, and yet He remains unattached. ||1||
He has no color, no sign, no mouth and no beard.
I cannot describe Your play.
Nanak is the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||2||2||45||
Soohee, Fifth Mehl:
I have come to You. I have come to Your Sanctuary.
I have come to place my faith in You. I have come seeking Mercy.
If it pleases You, save me, O my Lord and Master. The Guru has placed me upon the Path. ||1||Pause||
Maya is very treacherous and difficult to pass through. It is like a violent wind-storm. ||1||
I am so afraid to hear
that the Righteous Judge of Dharma is so strict and stern. ||2||
The world is a deep, dark pit;
