O (mohan) fascinating Master, I (karau) make this (jodariaa) entreaty, please (aavhu) come (ghar-i) home, i.e. enable me to experience Your presence within me.

I (karau = do) act in (maan-u) pride, (bolau) speak (abhimaanai) arrogantly, commit acts of (bhool) transgression and (chook) omission, but am (teyri) Your (chiriaa) maid-servant, o (pria) Beloved. 1.

ਨਿਕਟਿ ਸੁਨਉ ਅਰੁ ਪੇਖਉ ਨਾਹੀ ਭਰਮਿ ਭਰਮਿ ਦੁਖ ਭਰੀਆ ॥ ਹੋਇ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾਲ ਗੁਰ ਲਾਹਿ ਪਾਰਦੋ ਮਿਲਉ ਲਾਲ ਮਨੁ ਹਰੀਆ ॥੧॥

I (sunau) hear You are (nikatt-i) near (ar-u) and (naahi) not (peykhau) seeing You I (bharam-i bharam-i) keep wandering in search (bhareeaa) filled with (dukh) pain.  

But You are within me; when (gur) the guru (hoey) is (kripaal) kind to (laah-i) remove (paardo = curtain) the screen of other thoughts, I can (milau) meet (laal) the Beloved and my (man) mind (hareeaa = green) shall blossom – I shall have solace instead of pain. 1.

 

ਏਕ ਨਿਮਖ ਜੇ ਬਿਸਰੈ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਜਾਨਉ ਕੋਟਿ ਦਿਨਸ ਲਖ ਬਰੀਆ ॥ ਸਾਧਸੰਗਤਿ ਕੀ ਭੀਰ ਜਉ ਪਾਈ ਤਉ ਨਾਨਕ ਹਰਿ ਸੰਗਿ ਮਿਰੀਆ ॥੨॥੧॥੨੪॥

(Jey) if (suaami) the Master (bisrai) is forgotten for (eyk) one moment, I (jaanau = know) feel it like (kott-i) a crore (dinas) days and lakh (bareeaa/varhey) years.

Now, (jau = when) ever since I (paaee) found (bheer/bheerr = gathering) company of (saadhsangat-i) the holy congregation – where virtues of the Almighty are recounted and learnt to emulate – since (tau) then I (sang-i = with, mireeaa/mileeaa = met) have company of (har-i) the Almighty within. 2. 1. 24.

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Saarag. (Kiaa) what should I (sochau) think/plan (ab) now? I have (bisaari = forgotten) stopped (soch = thinking) worrying.

The Almighty is (kar-i rahiaa) doing (saa = that) everything that (karna) is to be done; my request is to (deyh-i) give awareness of Your (naau) Naam or virtues and commands so as to live by them; I (balihaari) adore You, my Master. 1.

(Bikh-u) the poison of (bikhiaa) vices (phool-i rahi = blooming) is spread (chahu = four, dis = directions) all over; (gur) the guru gives (garurraari) the Garurr mantra to utter (mookh-i) from the mouth to counter the effect of the poison. (Note: It is believed that if one recites the Garurr mantra the snake poison has no effect).

(Kar-i) considering me IT’s (aapna) own, the Almighty (dey-i) gave IT’s (haath) hand, i.e. has kindly (raakhio) protected from vices in the world-play (jio) like (kamla) the lotus flower (alipaari) is untouched by (jal) water  in which it stands. 1.

I have (deykhey) seen (naana) numerous (roop) forms and (bahu) numerous (ranga) colors – people recommend worship of various gods and goddesses and recitation of mantras; but I have found there is (naahi) nothing (an) else like being (bhaantey) like (tum) You, i.e. by emulating Your virtues and obeying Your commands, to get solace.

O (tthaakur) Master, You (deynh-i) give (adhaar-u = support) sustenance (kau) to (sarab) all; you are (sukhdaatey) the giver of comfort for (jeea) the soul and (praan) life. 1.

(Gur) the guru (bhaey) was (daiaal) kind to be (sukhdaaee) the giver of comfort – fulfiller of my yearning for God; I (andhuley = blind) was oblivious of Naam being present within, but (deykha) saw (maanik-u) the jewel – of Naam, i.e. the guru guided to find Naam within and live by it. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and contemplate.

 

ਕਾਟੇ ਅਗਿਆਨ ਤਿਮਰ ਨਿਰਮਲੀਆ ਬੁਧਿ ਬਿਗਾਸ ਬਿਬੇਕਾ ॥ ਜਿਉ ਜਲ ਤਰੰਗ ਫੇਨੁ ਜਲ ਹੋਈ ਹੈ ਸੇਵਕ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਭਏ ਏਕਾ ॥੧॥

The guru (kaattey = cut) ended (timar = darknesses) other ideas and made the mind (nirmaleeaa = free of dirt) purified; (budh-i) understanding became (bibeyka) discerning and (bigaas) blossomed finding the Almighty within.

(Jio) like (tarang) waves and (pheyn-u) foam of (jal = water) the sea (hoi hai) become (jal) water, i.e. merge in the sea, (seyvak) the servant/seeker and (tthaakur) Master (bhaey) became (eyka) one, i.e. unlike earlier, I remain absorbed in obedience to the Almighty, and have peace. 1.

 

ਜਹ ਤੇ ਉਠਿਓ ਤਹ ਹੀ ਆਇਓ ਸਭ ਹੀ ਏਕੈ ਏਕਾ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਆਇਓ ਸ੍ਰਬ ਠਾਈ ਪ੍ਰਾਣਪਤੀ ਹਰਿ ਸਮਕਾ ॥੨॥੪॥੨੭॥

The place (tey) from (jah) where the waves (utthio) rose, they (aaio) came back (tah) there (hi) itself – into the sea, similarly (sabh hi) every soul can become (eyka) one (eykai) with the One Creator through living by Naam.

Then (har-i) the Almighty (praanpati = master of life) Creator (aaio = comes, dristt-i = in sight) is seen at (srab) all (tthaai) places (samka) equally, i.e. the One God pervades everywhere and is in everyone, says fifth Nanak. 2. 4. 27.

The mind (chaahai) wants (har-i) divine (ras-u) taste, i.e. wants to experience God within; my (mukh-i) mouth (tteyrai) says/remembers (pria pria) the Beloved all the time, (jio) like (al-i) the bumble bee (lobhaangai) is attracted by (kamla) the lotus flower. 1.

ਸਾਰਗ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥ ਅਬ ਮੇਰੋ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਸਿਉ ਮਨੁ ਲੀਨਾ ॥ ਪ੍ਰਾਨ ਦਾਨੁ ਗੁਰਿ ਪੂਰੈ ਦੀਆ ਉਰਝਾਇਓ ਜਿਉ ਜਲ ਮੀਨਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Sārag mėhlā 5.  Ab mero ṯẖākur si▫o man līnā.  Parān ḏān gur pūrai ḏī▫ā urjẖā▫i▫o ji▫o jal mīnā. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Saarag. (Ab) now (meyro) my (man-u) mind is (leenaa) absorbed (sio) in (tthaakur) the Master, i.e. in practice of Naam or Divine virtues and commands.

(Poorai) the perfect (gur-i) guru (deeaa) gave (daan-u = alms) the gift of (praan) life – of not falling prey to vices; he (urjhaaio = entangled) created love for the Almighty (jio) like (meena) the fish has for (jal) water. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and contemplate.

 

ਕਾਮ ਕ੍ਰੋਧ ਲੋਭ ਮਦ ਮਤਸਰ ਇਹ ਅਰਪਿ ਸਗਲ ਦਾਨੁ ਕੀਨਾ ॥ ਮੰਤ੍ਰ ਦ੍ਰਿੜਾਇ ਹਰਿ ਅਉਖਧੁ ਗੁਰਿ ਦੀਓ ਤਉ ਮਿਲਿਓ ਸਗਲ ਪ੍ਰਬੀਨਾ ॥੧॥

Kām kroḏẖ lobẖ maḏ maṯsar ih arap sagal ḏān kīnā. Manṯar driṛ▫ā▫e har a▫ukẖaḏẖ gur ḏī▫o ṯa▫o mili▫o sagal parbīnā. ||1||

 

(Kaam) lust, (krodh) anger, (lobh) greed, (mad = intoxicant) pride and (matsar) jealousy; I (arap-i) gave these away (sagal) all, (keena) making (daan-u) a donation, i.e. dispelled them from the mind.

(Gur-i) the guru (deeo) gave the (aukhadh-u) medicine/prescription of (drirraaey) creating firm commitment to (mantr = teaching) living by Naam; (tau) then I (milio) found (sagal = all, prabeena = wise) the all-pervasive Master. 1.

 

ਗ੍ਰਿਹੁ ਤੇਰਾ ਤੂ ਠਾਕੁਰੁ ਮੇਰਾ ਗੁਰਿ ਹਉ ਖੋਈ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਦੀਨਾ ॥

Garihu ṯerā ṯū ṯẖākur merā gur ha▫o kẖo▫ī parabẖ ḏīnā.

 

(Grihu = house) the mind is (teyra = yours) dedicated to You and (too) You are (meyra) my (tthakur) Master; (gur-i) the guru gave me this understanding by (khoi = losing) dispelling (hau) ego from the mind and (deena) gave, i.e. led me to, (prabh-u) the Almighty.

ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਮੈ ਸਹਜ ਘਰੁ ਪਾਇਆ ਹਰਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਭੰਡਾਰ ਖਜੀਨਾ ॥੨॥੧੦॥੩੩॥

Kaho Nānak mai sahj gẖar pā▫i▫ā har bẖagaṯ bẖandār kẖajīnā. ||2||10||33||

 

(Mai) I have (paaiaa) attained (ghar-u) the state of (sahaj) poise with (bhandda) storehouses full of (khajeena) the treasure of (bhagat-i) devotion, i.e. emulation of Divine virtues and obedience to Divine commands, says fifth Nanak. 2. 10. 13.
