O (man) human mind, (har-i) the Almighty is (akath) hard to describe; but we may know IT by (sun-i) listening to (kathaa) narration of IT’s (naam) virtues.

People (paavah-i) get (sukh) happiness by attaining (ridh-i, sidh-i) occult powers and (budh-i) wisdom/knowledge, but one who follows (gurmat-i) the guru’s teachings, is happy (bhaj-u) to remember and practice virtues of (raam raam) the all-pervasive (har-i) the Almighty.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and contemplate.

ਤਿਸੁ ਜਨ ਕਉ ਮਨੁ ਤਨੁ ਸਭੁ ਦੇਵਉ ਜਿਨਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਸੁਨਾਇਓ ॥ ਧਨੁ ਮਾਇਆ ਸੰਪੈ ਤਿਸੁ ਦੇਵਉ ਜਿਨਿ ਹਰਿ ਮੀਤੁ ਮਿਲਾਇਓ ॥੧॥

ਖਿਨੁ ਕਿੰਚਿਤ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਕਰੀ ਜਗਦੀਸਰਿ ਤਬ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਜਸੁ ਧਿਆਇਓ ॥ ਜਨ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਉ ਹਰਿ ਭੇਟੇ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਦੁਖੁ ਹਉਮੈ ਰੋਗੁ ਗਵਾਇਓ ॥੨॥੨॥

Note: In the Shabad below, the fourth Guru says that a seeker/devotee praises, and emulates Divine virtues and obeys Divine commands. If someone slanders him/her, s/he does not change his/her nature. S/he believes it is the Almighty who makes people speak and act the way they do, and does not therefore retaliate, with the faith that the Almighty always sorts things out.

 

ਬੈਰਾੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੪ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਜਨੁ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮ ਗੁਨ ਗਾਵੈ ॥ ਜੇ ਕੋਈ ਨਿੰਦ ਕਰੇ ਹਰਿ ਜਨ ਕੀ ਅਪੁਨਾ ਗੁਨੁ ਨ ਗਵਾਵੈ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

(Jey) if (koee) someone (karey = does, nind/ninda = slander, ki = of) slanders (jan) the devotee of the Almighty, s/he does not (gavaavai = lose) give up his/her (gun-u) virtue of commitment to Naam, i.e. living by Divine virtues. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and contemplate.

 

ਜੋ ਕਿਛੁ ਕਰੇ ਸੁ ਆਪੇ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਹਰਿ ਆਪੇ ਕਾਰ ਕਮਾਵੈ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਆਪੇ ਹੀ ਮਤਿ ਦੇਵੈ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਹਰਿ ਆਪੇ ਬੋਲਿ ਬੁਲਾਵੈ ॥੧॥

Jo kicẖẖ kare so āpe su▫āmī har āpe kār kamāvai.  Har āpe hī maṯ ḏevai su▫āmī har āpe bol bulāvai. ||1||

 

The devotee is of the firm belief that; (jo kichh-u) whatever someone (karey) does (su) that (suaami) the Master (aapey) IT-self does; (har-i) the Almighty IT-self (kamaavai) performs every (kaar) action – through the creatures, being in them.

(Har-i) the Almighty suaami) Master (aapey) IT-self (deyvai) gives (mat-i = counsel) the sense and (bol-i) speaks when IT (bulaavai) causes the creature to speak. 1.

ਹਰਿ ਆਪੇ ਪੰਚ ਤਤੁ ਬਿਸਥਾਰਾ ਵਿਚਿ ਧਾਤੂ ਪੰਚ ਆਪਿ ਪਾਵੈ ॥ ਜਨ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਮੇਲੇ ਆਪੇ ਹਰਿ ਆਪੇ ਝਗਰੁ ਚੁਕਾਵੈ ॥੨॥੩॥

Har āpe pancẖ ṯaṯ bisthārā vicẖ ḏẖāṯū pancẖ āp pāvai.  Jan Nānak saṯgur mele āpe har āpe jẖagar cẖukẖāvai. ||2||3||

 

(Har-i) the Almighty (aapey) IT-self, made (bisthaara = expanse) creation/creatures with (panch) five (tat-u) elements – earth, water, air, fire and space, and (aap-i) IT-self (paavai) put (panch) the five (dhaatoo) qualities  in the creatures – tolerance of the earth, cleanliness of water, equal treatment of all by air, providing warmth like fire, being open to all like space

And IT-self (meyley) leads to (satigur-u) the true guru to follow his guidance, and IT-self (chukaavai) ends (jhagar-u) conflicts, i.e. helps the devotee overcome the vices, and hence the strife of having to combat vices, says (jan) humble fourth Nanak. 2. 3.

 

Note: The pronoun ‘IT’ has been used for God because God has no physical form and is gender-neutral.

ਬੈਰਾੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੪ ॥ ਜਪਿ ਮਨ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਨਿਸਤਾਰਾ ॥ ਕੋਟ ਕੋਟੰਤਰ ਕੇ ਪਾਪ ਸਭਿ ਖੋਵੈ ਹਰਿ ਭਵਜਲੁ ਪਾਰਿ ਉਤਾਰਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Composition of the fourth Guru in Raga Bairaarree. O my (man) mind, (jap-i) recount and emulate (naam-u) virtues of (raam) the all-pervasive Almighty; this (nistaara = ferries across the night) the transitory world, i.e. one is not born again.

Living by Naam one (khovai = loses) gets rid of the effect of (paap) transgressions (key) of (kott kottantar) millions of past births and (har-i) the Almighty (utaara) causes to land (paar-i) on the far shore of, i.e. ferries across (bhavjal) the world-ocean – and not to be reborn. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and contemplate.

 

ਕਾਇਆ ਨਗਰਿ ਬਸਤ ਹਰਿ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਹਰਿ ਨਿਰਭਉ ਨਿਰਵੈਰੁ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰਾ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਨਿਕਟਿ ਬਸਤ ਕਛੁ ਨਦਰਿ ਨ ਆਵੈ ਹਰਿ ਲਾਧਾ ਗੁਰ ਵੀਚਾਰਾ ॥੧॥

Kā▫i▫ā nagar basaṯ har su▫āmī har nirbẖa▫o nirvair nirankārā.  Har nikat basaṯ kacẖẖ naḏar na āvai har lāḏẖā gur vīcẖārā. ||1||

 

(Kaaiaa) the body is like (nagar-i = town) habitat in which (har-i) the Almighty (suaami) Master (basat) abides, but is (nirankaar) Formless – not seen; IT is (nirbhau = fearless) answerable to none, being Supreme, and (nirvair-u = without enmity) is not against anyone.

(Har-i) the Almighty (basat) dwells (nikatt-i) near/within but is (kachh-u na) not (nadir-i aavai) seen; IT (laadhaa) is found within (veechaara) by understanding teachings of the guru. 1.

 

ਹਰਿ ਆਪੇ ਸਾਹੁ ਸਰਾਫੁ ਰਤਨੁ ਹੀਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਆਪਿ ਕੀਆ ਪਾਸਾਰਾ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਜਿਸੁ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਕਰੇ ਸੁ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਿਹਾਝੇ ਸੋ ਸਾਹੁ ਸਚਾ ਵਣਜਾਰਾ ॥੨॥੪॥

Har āpe sāhu sarāf raṯan hīrā har āp kī▫ā pāsārā.  Nānak jis kirpā kare so har nām vihājẖe so sāhu sacẖā vaṇjārā. ||2||4||

 

The Almighty is (aapey) IT-self (saahu = financier) the source of funds, (saraaf-u) the jeweler as well as (ratan) the jewel and (heera) gem; IT-self (keeaa = made, paasaara = expanse) made the creation, i.e. is IT-self the virtues and commands as well as their source by which the creatures are to conduct themselves.

One (jis-u) on whom IT (kripa karey) is kind, (su) that person (vihaajhey) acquires awareness of (naam-u) Divine virtues and commands; (so) s/he becomes one who (sachaa = true) has righteous (vanjaara = trader) dealings/conduct in life and (saahu) the source of virtues for others to follow, says fifth Nanak. 2. 4.

ਬੈਰਾੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੪ ॥ ਜਪਿ ਮਨ ਹਰਿ ਨਿਰੰਜਨੁ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰਾ ॥ ਸਦਾ ਸਦਾ ਹਰਿ ਧਿਆਈਐ ਸੁਖਦਾਤਾ ਜਾ ਕਾ ਅੰਤੁ ਨ ਪਾਰਾਵਾਰਾ
॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Bairāṛī mėhlā 4.  Jap man har niranjan nirankārā.  Saḏā saḏā har ḏẖi▫ā▫ī▫ai sukẖ▫ḏāṯa jā kā anṯ na pārāvārā. ||1||

rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fourth Guru in Raga Bairaarree. O my (man) mind, (jap-i = remember) be conscious of virtues and commands of (niranjan-u) the impeccable/unstained (nirankaara) formless (har-i) Almighty.

We should (sadaa sadaa) forever (dhiaaeeai) pay attention to virtues and commands of (har-i) the Almighty (ja ka = whose) who has no (ant-u) bounds or (paaravaara) far end, i.e. is infinite; (sukhdaata = giver of comfort) this gives comfort. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and contemplate.

 

ਅਗਨਿ ਕੁੰਟ ਮਹਿ ਉਰਧ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਗਾ ਹਰਿ ਰਾਖੈ ਉਦਰ ਮੰਝਾਰਾ ॥ ਸੋ ਐਸਾ ਹਰਿ ਸੇਵਹੁ ਮੇਰੇ ਮਨ ਹਰਿ ਅੰਤਿ ਛਡਾਵਣਹਾਰਾ ॥੧॥

Agan kunt mėh uraḏẖ liv lāgā har rākẖai uḏar manjẖārā.  So aisā har sevhu mere man har anṯ cẖẖadāvaṇhārā. ||1||

 

The fetus is (urdh) upside-down state (mah-i) in (agan-i = fire) the heat of (kuntt = chamber) womb, and exists (liv laaga = absorbed) submitting to Divine will and (har-i) the Almighty (raakhai) protects it (manjhaara) in (udar) the womb.

(Meyrey) my (man) mind, (seyvh-u = serve) obey (su aisa) such a (har-i) Master who (chhaddavanhaara) delivers (ant-i) at the end. 1.

 

ਜਾ ਕੈ ਹਿਰਦੈ ਬਸਿਆ ਮੇਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਤਿਸੁ ਜਨ ਕਉ ਕਰਹੁ ਨਮਸਕਾਰਾ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਤੇ ਪਾਈਐ ਹਰਿ ਜਪੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਅਧਾਰਾ ॥੨॥੫॥

Jā kai hirḏai basi▫ā merā har har ṯis jan ka▫o karahu namaskārā.  Har kirpā ṯe pā▫ī▫ai har jap Nānak nām aḏẖārā. ||2||5||

 

We should (karah-u = do) pay (namaskaara) obeisance – and follow the example (kau) of (tis-u) that (jan) person (ja kai) in whose (hirdai) mind (har-i har-i) the Almighty Master (meyra = my) of all (basia = dwells) is remembered,

But (jap-u) remembrance of (har-i) the Almighty (paaeeai = obtained) comes with (kirpa) grace 0f the Almighty; Naam then becomes (adhaara = support) the guide for life – with the guru’s guidance, says fourth Nanak. 2. 5.

 

————————————————————-

 

Note: One who lives by Naam, i.e. sincerely performs the role one has been allotted for life – by way of being placed in the faith, country/family/job – achieves success in life and succeeds in attaining union with the Almighty at the end. For the latter one should have single-minded faith in the Almighty and give up reliance on any other metod/gods/goddesses/persons, says the fourth Guru in this Shabad.

 

ਬੈਰਾੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੪ ॥ ਜਪਿ ਮਨ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨਿਤ ਧਿਆਇ ॥ ਜੋ ਇਛਹਿ ਸੋਈ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਵਹਿ ਫਿਰਿ ਦੂਖੁ ਨ ਲਾਗੈ ਆਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Composition of the fourth Guru in Raga Bairaarree. O my mind, (jap-i) recount (naam-u) virtues of (har-i har-i) the Almighty and (nit) ever (dhiaaey) pay attention to them – as guide in life.

ਸੋ ਜਪੁ ਸੋ ਤਪੁ ਸਾ ਬ੍ਰਤ ਪੂਜਾ ਜਿਤੁ ਹਰਿ ਸਿਉ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਲਗਾਇ ॥ ਬਿਨੁ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਹੋਰ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਸਭ ਝੂਠੀ ਇਕ ਖਿਨ ਮਹਿ ਬਿਸਰਿ ਸਭ ਜਾਇ ॥੧॥

(Sabh) all (hor) other (preet-i) love (bin-u) except with the Almighty is (jhootthi = false) im-permanent and (bisar-i jaaey) is forgotten (mah-i) in (ik) one (khin) moment – on death, i.e. only living by will of the Almighty accompanies the soul here and in the hereafter. 1.

(Jeeo) revered (har-i) Master, I have placed myself in (tumhaari) Your (saran-i) care, please (chhaddaaey) deliver me from attachment to vices in the world-play, by enabling me to live (tivai) the way as You (bhaavai) please, says fourth Nanak. 2. 6.
