Composition of (mahla 5) the fourth Guru in Raga Natt Naarain.    Invoking the One all-pervasive Creator who may be known with the true guru’s grace.

 

ਰਾਮ ਹਉ ਕਿਆ ਜਾਨਾ ਕਿਆ ਭਾਵੈ ॥ ਮਨਿ ਪਿਆਸ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਦਰਸਾਵੈ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Rām ha▫o ki▫ā jānā ki▫ā bẖāvai.  Man pi▫ās bahuṯ ḏarsāvai. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

O Almighty, I (kiaa = what?) do not (jaana) know (kiaa) what (bhaavai) pleases You so as to do that to have vision of You. I have (bahut) great (piaas = thirst) yearning (man-i) in mind to (darsaavai = see) have vision of You. 1.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

 

ਸੋਈ ਗਿਆਨੀ ਸੋਈ ਜਨੁ ਤੇਰਾ ਜਿਸੁ ਊਪਰਿ ਰੁਚ ਆਵੈ ॥ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਕਰਹੁ ਜਿਸੁ ਪੁਰਖ ਬਿਧਾਤੇ ਸੋ ਸਦਾ ਸਦਾ ਤੁਧੁ ਧਿਆਵੈ ॥੧॥

So▫ī gi▫ānī so▫ī jan ṯerā jis ūpar rucẖ āvai.  Kirpā karahu jis purakẖ biḏẖāṯe so saḏā saḏā ṯuḏẖ ḏẖi▫āvai. ||1||

 

(Soee) that person is (giaani = knowledgeable) aware of, and (soee) that person is (teyra) Your (jan = servant) devotee, i.e. obeys Your commands, (oopar-i) on (jis-u) whom Your (ruch = aptitude) liking is, i.e. one knows Your liking by Your grace.

One on (jis-u) whom You (karhu) bestow (kripa) kindness, o (purakh) all-pervasive (bidhaatey) Creator, (so) that person (sadaa sadaa) for ever (dhiaavai) invokes (tudh-u) You, i.e. pays attention to Your virtues and commands, as guide for life. 1.

 

ਕਵਨ ਜੋਗ ਕਵਨ ਗਿਆਨ ਧਿਆਨਾ ਕਵਨ ਗੁਨੀ ਰੀਝਾਵੈ ॥ ਸੋਈ ਜਨੁ ਸੋਈ ਨਿਜ ਭਗਤਾ ਜਿਸੁ ਊਪਰਿ ਰੰਗੁ ਲਾਵੈ ॥੨॥

Kavan jog kavan gi▫ān ḏẖi▫ānā kavan gunī rījẖāvai.  So▫ī jan so▫ī nij bẖagṯā jis ūpar rang lāvai. ||2||

 

(Kavan) what are those (jog) Yogic practices, (giaan) knowledge and (dhiaana) meditation and by (kavan) what (guni) virtues, is the Almighty (reejhaavai) pleased?

No one can know and practice the above on his/her own: (Soee) only that (jan-u = servant) person becomes a seeker and Your, (nij = personal) only Your, (bhagta) devotee (oopar-i) on whom You (laavai) create (rang-u) love for Your virtues and commands. 2.

 

ਸਾਈ ਮਤਿ ਸਾਈ ਬੁਧਿ ਸਿਆਨਪ ਜਿਤੁ ਨਿਮਖ ਨ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਬਿਸਰਾਵੈ ॥ ਸੰਤਸੰਗਿ ਲਗਿ ਏਹੁ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਇਓ ਹਰਿ ਗੁਨ ਸਦ ਹੀ ਗਾਵੈ ॥੩॥

Sā▫ī maṯ sā▫ī buḏẖ si▫ānap jiṯ nimakẖ na parabẖ bisrāvai.  Saṯsang lag ehu sukẖ pā▫i▫o har gun saḏ hī gāvai. ||3||

 

(Saaee) only that (mat-i) counsel, that (budh-i) intellect and (siaanap) wisdom by (jit-u) which one does not (bisraavai) forget (prabh-u) the Almighty (nimakh) even for a moment, is good.

(Eyh-u) this (sukh = comfort) peace/happiness – that comes from Your remembrance – (paaio) is obtained by one who (lag-i = engages) joins (santsang-i = company of saints) the holy congregation and (sad hi) ever (gaavai = sings) praises and emulates (gun) virtues of (ha-i) the Almighty. 3.

 

ਦੇਖਿਓ ਅਚਰਜੁ ਮਹਾ ਮੰਗਲ ਰੂਪ ਕਿਛੁ ਆਨ ਨਹੀ ਦਿਸਟਾਵੈ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਮੋਰਚਾ ਗੁਰਿ ਲਾਹਿਓ ਤਹ ਗਰਭ ਜੋਨਿ ਕਹ ਆਵੈ ॥੪॥੧॥

Ḏekẖi▫o acẖraj mahā mangal rūp kicẖẖ ān nahī ḏistāvai.  Kaho Nānak morcẖā gur lāhi▫o ṯah garabẖ jon kah āvai. ||4||1||

 

Then s/he (deykhio) sees (acharaj-u) the wondrous Almighty, (roop) the embodiment of (mahaa = great) sublime (mangal) joy, everywhere and not (disttavai) see (aan) anyone else.

This happens when (gur-i) the guru (laahio) removes (morcha = rust) the influence of past transgressions; (tah) then one (kah = why?) does not (aavai = come) enter (garabh jon) the womb, i.e. is not reborn, (kahu) say o fifth Nanak. 4. 1.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

 

ਆਗਿਆ ਮਾਨਿ ਜਾਨਿ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਇਆ ਸੁਨਿ ਸੁਨਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਤੁਹਾਰੋ ਜੀਓ ॥ ਈਹਾਂ ਊਹਾ ਹਰਿ ਤੁਮ ਹੀ ਤੁਮ ਹੀ ਇਹੁ ਗੁਰ ਤੇ ਮੰਤ੍ਰੁ ਦ੍ਰਿੜੀਓ ॥੧॥

Āgi▫ā mān jān sukẖ pā▫i▫ā sun sun nām ṯuhāro jī▫o.  Īhāʼn ūhā har ṯum hī ṯum hī ih gur ṯe manṯar ḏariṛ▫ī▫o. ||1||

 

O (jeeo) revered Master, anyone who (sun-i sun-i) listens to (tuhaaro) Your (naam-u) virtues and commands, (jaan-i) understands and (maan-i = carries out) practices them, s/he (paaiaa) obtains (sukh) peace. It is (tum hi) You alone and You alone whose writ runs (eehaa’n) here and (oohaa’n = there) in the hereafter; (ihu) this (mantr-u = counsel) understanding is (drirreeo) made firm with teachings (tey) from the guru. 1.

 

ਜਬ ਤੇ ਜਾਨਿ ਪਾਈ ਏਹ ਬਾਤਾ ਤਬ ਕੁਸਲ ਖੇਮ ਸਭ ਥੀਓ ॥ ਸਾਧਸੰਗਿ ਨਾਨਕ ਪਰਗਾਸਿਓ ਆਨ ਨਾਹੀ ਰੇ ਬੀਓ ॥ ੨॥੧॥੨॥

Jab ṯe jān pā▫ī eh bāṯā ṯab kusal kẖem sabẖ thī▫o.  Sāḏẖsang Nānak pargāsi▫o ān nāhī re bī▫o. ||2||1||2||

 

(Tey) from (jab = when) the time I (paaee) obtained (jaan-i) understanding of (eyh) these (baataa) things – and started practicing them, – since (tab) then (sabh = all) complete (kusal) well-being and (kheym) happiness is (theeo = happened) experienced.

(Saadhsag-i) in company of the guru – in holy congregation – I (pargaasio = enlightened) became aware that wherever we see there is not (aan = other, beeo = other) anyone other than the Almighty, says fifth Nanak. 2.1. 2.

Nat mėhlā 5.  Jā ka▫o bẖa▫ī ṯumārī ḏẖīr.  Jam kī ṯarās mitī sukẖ pā▫i▫ā niksī ha▫umai pīr. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

One (kau) to (ja) whom (bhaee = happens) is (tumaari) Your (dheer) solace/consolation, i.e. one who places the self in care/obedience of the Almighty.

His/her (traas) fear of (jam) Divine justice (mittee) is removed and s/he (paaiaa) attains (sukh-u) peace; his/her (peer/peer) pain caused by (haumai) ego – acting by self-will and thus being separated from the Almighty – (niksee = goes out) ends.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

 

ਤਪਤਿ ਬੁਝਾਨੀ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਬਾਨੀ ਤ੍ਰਿਪਤੇ ਜਿਉ ਬਾਰਿਕ ਖੀਰ ॥ ਮਾਤ ਪਿਤਾ ਸਾਜਨ ਸੰਤ ਮੇਰੇ ਸੰਤ ਸਹਾਈ ਬੀਰ ॥੧॥

Ŧapaṯ bujẖānī amriṯ bānī ṯaripṯai ji▫o bārik kẖīr. Māṯ piṯā sājan sanṯ mere sanṯ sahā▫ī bīr. ||1||

 

(Amrit) the life-giving (baani = words) Divine messages received by the mind which remembers the Almighty, (bujhaani) extinguish (tapat-i = heat) the fire of craving (jio) like (baarik) the baby (triptey) is satiated with (kheer) milk.

Such people acknowledge and consider (sant = saints) the seekers dear like (maat) the mother, (pitaa) father, (saajan) friends, (sahaaee) helpful and (beer = brothers) siblings. 1.

ਖੁਲੇ ਭ੍ਰਮ ਭੀਤਿ ਮਿਲੇ ਗੋਪਾਲਾ ਹੀਰੈ ਬੇਧੇ ਹੀਰ ॥ ਬਿਸਮ ਭਏ ਨਾਨਕ ਜਸੁ ਗਾਵਤ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਗੁਨੀ ਗਹੀਰ ॥੨॥੨॥੩॥

Their (bheet = walls/obstacles) gates of (bhram) delusion – that God is far somewhere – (khuley) open, and they (mil-e) find (gopaala = Sustainor of the world) the Almighty within; (heerai) the jewel (beydhey = pierced) cuts (heer) jewels, i.e. opening of the mind by overcoming ego is as hard as cutting a diamond and is achieved by awareness of jewel-like valuable Divine virtues. Divine grace.

(Tthaakur) the Master is (gaheer) profound (guni) in virtues; one (bhaey = become) is (bisam) wonder-struck (gaavat = singing) praising (gun) virtues of the Almighty, says fifth Nanak. 2. 2. 3.

ਨਟ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥ ਅਪਨਾ ਜਨੁ ਆਪਹਿ ਆਪਿ ਉਧਾਰਿਓ ॥ ਆਠ ਪਹਰ ਜਨ ਕੈ ਸੰਗਿ ਬਸਿਓ ਮਨ ਤੇ ਨਾਹਿ ਬਿਸਾਰਿਓ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Nat mėhlā 5.  Apnā jan āpėh āp uḏẖāri▫o.  Āṯẖ pahar jan kai sang basi▫o man ṯe nāhi bisāri▫o. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Natt. The Almighty (udhaario) emancipates (apna = own) IT’s (jan = servant) devotee from vices in the world-play (aapah-i aap-i) on IT’s own, i.e. a devotee who lives by Naam or Divine virtues and commands is not affected by vices.

IT (basio) abides (kai = of, sang-i = in company) with (jan) the devotee (aatth = eight x pahar = three hours) all of twenty four hours – round the clock – and never (bisaario) forgets him/her (tey) from IT’s (man) mind, i.e. Divine grace is unbroken.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

 

ਬਰਨੁ ਚਿਹਨੁ ਨਾਹੀ ਕਿਛੁ ਪੇਖਿਓ ਦਾਸ ਕਾ ਕੁਲੁ ਨ ਬਿਚਾਰਿਓ ॥ ਕਰਿ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਨਾਮੁ ਹਰਿ ਦੀਓ ਸਹਜਿ ਸੁਭਾਇ ਸਵਾਰਿਓ ॥੧॥

Baran cẖihan nāhī kicẖẖ pekẖi▫o ḏās kā kul na bicẖāri▫o.  Kar kirpā nām har ḏī▫o sahj subẖā▫e savāri▫o. ||1||

 

IT does not (peykhio = see) look for (baran-u = colour) complexion or (chihan-u) features or (beechaario) consider (kul-u) lineage, of the devotee, i.e. looks are no consideration.

(Har-i) the Almighty (kar-i kirpa) kindly (deeo = gives) imparts awareness of (naam-u) IT’s virtues and commands, and (savaario) transforms the devotee (sahj-i subhaaey) to naturally live by them. 1.

 

ਮਹਾ ਬਿਖਮੁ ਅਗਨਿ ਕਾ ਸਾਗਰੁ ਤਿਸ ਤੇ ਪਾਰਿ ਉਤਾਰਿਓ ॥ ਪੇਖਿ ਪੇਖਿ ਨਾਨਕ ਬਿਗਸਾਨੋ ਪੁਨਹ ਪੁਨਹ ਬਲਿਹਾਰਿਓ ॥੨॥੩॥੪॥

Mahā bikẖam agan kā sāgar ṯis ṯe pār uṯāri▫o.  Pekẖ pekẖ Nānak bigsāno punah punah balihāri▫o. ||2||3||4||

 

The world-play is like (saagar-u) an ocean which is (mahaa = great) terribly (bikham) hard to cross; the Almighty (paar-i = far shore, utaario = lands) takes the devotee across (tis) that.

Fifth Nanak is (bigsaano = happy) is fascinated (peykh-i peykh-i) seeing all this and (balihaario) is sacrifice (punah punah) again and again, i.e. ever adores the Master. 2. 3. 4.

ਨਟ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਮਨ ਮਹਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਕਹਿਓ ॥ ਕੋਟਿ ਅਪ੍ਰਾਧ ਮਿਟਹਿ ਖਿਨ ਭੀਤਰਿ ਤਾ ਕਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਨ ਰਹਿਓ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Nat mėhlā 5.  Har har man mėh nām kahi▫o.  Kot aprāḏẖ mitėh kẖin bẖīṯar ṯā kā ḏukẖ na rahi▫o. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Natt. One who (kahio = says) keeps (naam-u) Divine virtues and commands (mah-i) in (man) mind – to live by them;

Influence of (kott-i = crore/ten million) millions of (ta ka = of that) his/her (apraadh) wrong-doings (mittah-i) is erased from the mind (bheetar-i) in (khin) a moment, i.e. as soon as one starts living by Naam, and (dukh-u) pain caused by acting under old influences does not (rahio) remain.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

 

ਖੋਜਤ ਖੋਜਤ ਭਇਓ ਬੈਰਾਗੀ ਸਾਧੂ ਸੰਗਿ ਲਹਿਓ ॥ ਸਗਲ ਤਿਆਗਿ ਏਕ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਗੀ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਚਰਨ ਗਹਿਓ ॥੧॥

Kẖojaṯ kẖojaṯ bẖa▫i▫o bairāgī sāḏẖū sang lahi▫o.  Sagal ṯi▫āg ek liv lāgī har har cẖaran gahi▫o. ||1||

 

People show (bhaio) they are (bairaagi) detached, and wander (khojat khojat) searching for the Almighty until they (lahio) find (sang-i = company) guidance of (saadhoo) the guru.

Only then they really (tiaag-i) give up (sagal) everything else to (laagi = fix, liv = focus) focus on (eyk) the One Almighty and (gahio) hold (charan) feet of (har-i har-i) the Almighty, i.e. place the self in care and obedience of the Almighty. 1.

 

ਕਹਤ ਮੁਕਤ ਸੁਨਤੇ ਨਿਸਤਾਰੇ ਜੋ ਜੋ ਸਰਨਿ ਪਇਓ ॥ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਅਪੁਨਾ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਅਨਦੁ ਭਇਓ ॥੨॥੪॥੫॥

Kahaṯ mukaṯ sunṯe nisṯāre jo jo saran pa▫i▫o.  Simar simar su▫āmī parabẖ apunā kaho Nānak anaḏ bẖa▫i▫o. ||2||4||5||

 

(Jo jo) all those who (kahat = say) remember, and those who (sunt-e) listen to Naam, i.e. take Divine virtues and commands as guide for life, they (nistaarey) are ferried across the world-ocean by the Almighty.

Says fifth Nanak: One (bhaio) experiences (anad-u) bliss/joy (simar-i simar-i simar-i) in keeping in mind, in thought, word and deed, virtues and commands of (apuna = own) our (suaami) Master. 2. 4. 5.

Nat mėhlā 5.  Cẖaran kamal sang lāgī dorī.  Sukẖ sāgar kar param gaṯ morī. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Natt. My (ddori = string, gaze) attention (laagi) is fixed (sang-i = with) on Your (kamal) lotus (charan) feet, i.e. I have placed myself in Your care and obedience, o God.

O Almighty, (saagar = ocean) the source of (sukh) comfort/peace, please (kar-i) make (meyri) my (gar-i) state (param) supreme – by finding You within.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

 

ਅੰਚਲਾ ਗਹਾਇਓ ਜਨ ਅਪੁਨੇ ਕਉ ਮਨੁ ਬੀਧੋ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਕੀ ਖੋਰੀ ॥ ਜਸੁ ਗਾਵਤ ਭਗਤਿ ਰਸੁ ਉਪਜਿਓ ਮਾਇਆ ਕੀ ਜਾਲੀ ਤੋਰੀ ॥੧॥

Pūran pūr rahe kirpā niḏẖ ān na pekẖa▫o horī.  Nānak mel lī▫o ḏās apunā parīṯ na kabhū thorī. ||2||5||6||

 

I find (nidh-i = treasure, kirpa = kindness) the kind Almighty (poor-i = filling, pooran = fully) all-pervasive Almighty everywhere; I do not (pekhau) see (aan hori) anyone else.

(Rahaau) pause and reflect on this.

It (keeney = done, khandd khandd = broken to pieces) helped me get rid of insatiable (kaam) desires, (krodh-u) wrath and (lobh-u) greed and (moorr) the stupidity of (abhimaan-u) vanity has been (binsio) destroyed. 1.
