I wash their feet, and wave the fan over them. Bowing low, I fall at their feet. ||10||

Section 05 - Siree Raag - Part 061

I heard of the Guru, and so I went to Him.

He instilled within me the Naam, the goodness of charity and true cleansing.

All the world is liberated, O Nanak, by embarking upon the Boat of Truth. ||11||

The whole Universe serves You, day and night.

Please hear my prayer, O Dear Lord.

I have thoroughly tested and seen all-You alone, by Your Pleasure, can save us. ||12||

Now, the Merciful Lord has issued His Command.

Let no one chase after and attack anyone else.

Let all abide in peace, under this Benevolent Rule. ||13||

Softly and gently, drop by drop, the Ambrosial Nectar trickles down.

I speak as my Lord and Master causes me to speak.

I place all my faith in You; please accept me. ||14||

Your devotees are forever hungry for You.

O Lord, please fulfill my desires.

Grant me the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, O Giver of Peace. Please, take me into Your Embrace. ||15||

I have not found any other as Great as You.

You pervade the continents, the worlds and the nether regions;

You are permeating all places and interspaces. Nanak: You are the True Support of Your devotees. ||16||

I am a wrestler; I belong to the Lord of the World.

I met with the Guru, and I have tied a tall, plumed turban.

All have gathered to watch the wrestling match, and the Merciful Lord Himself is seated to behold it. ||17||

The bugles play and the drums beat.

The wrestlers enter the arena and circle around.

I have thrown the five challengers to the ground, and the Guru has patted me on the back. ||18||

All have gathered together,

but we shall return home by different routes.

The Gurmukhs reap their profits and leave, while the self-willed manmukhs lose their investment and depart. ||19||

You are without color or mark.

The Lord is seen to be manifest and present.

Hearing of Your Glories again and again, Your devotees meditate on You; they are attuned to You, O Lord, Treasure of Excellence. ||20||

Through age after age, I am the servant of the Merciful Lord.

The Guru has cut away my bonds.

I shall not have to dance in the wrestling arena of life again. Nanak has searched, and found this opportunity. ||21||2||29||

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

Siree Raag, First Mehl, Pehray, First House:

In the first watch of the night, O my merchant friend, you were cast into the womb, by the Lord's Command.

Upside-down, within the womb, you performed penance, O my merchant friend, and you prayed to your Lord and Master.

You uttered prayers to your Lord and Master, while upside-down, and you meditated on Him with deep love and affection.
