古鲁·格兰特·萨希布 139 · Raag Maajh · Guru Angad Dev Ji

1Beautiful and sublime is the glory and the understanding of those who focus their consciousness on the Lord. ||2||

2Shalok, Second Mehla:

3To see without eyes; to hear without ears;

4to walk without feet; to work without hands;

5to speak without a tongue-like this, one remains dead while yet alive.

6O Nanak, recognize the Hukam of the Lord's Command, and merge with your Lord and Master. ||1||

7Second Mehla:

8He is seen, heard and known, but His subtle essence is not obtained.

9How can the lame, armless and blind person run to embrace the Lord?

10Let the Fear of God be your feet, and let His Love be your hands; let His Understanding be your eyes.

11Says Nanak, in this way, O wise soul-bride, you shall be united with your Husband Lord. ||2||

12Pauree:

13Forever and ever, You are the only One; You set the play of duality in motion.

14You created egotism and arrogant pride, and You placed greed within our beings.

15Keep me as it pleases Your Will; everyone acts as You cause them to act.

16Some are forgiven, and merge with You; through the Guru's Teachings, we are joined to You.

17Some stand and serve You; without the Name, nothing else pleases them.

18Any other task would be worthless to them-You have enjoined them to Your True Service.

19In the midst of children, spouse and relations, some still remain detached; they are pleasing to Your Will.

20Inwardly and outwardly, they are pure, and they are absorbed in the True Name. ||3||

21Shalok, First Mehla:

22I may make a cave, in a mountain of gold, or in the water of the nether regions;

23I may remain standing on my head, upside-down, on the earth or up in the sky;

24I may totally cover my body with clothes, and wash them continually;

25I may shout out loud, the white, red, yellow and black Vedas;

26I may even live in dirt and filth. And yet, all this is just a product of evil-mindedness, and intellectual corruption.

27I was not, I am not, and I will never be anything at all! O Nanak, I dwell only on the Word of the Shabad. ||1||

28First Mehla:

29They wash their clothes, and scrub their bodies, and try to practice self-discipline.

30But they are not aware of the filth staining their inner being, while they try and try to wash off the outer dirt.

31The blind go astray, caught by the noose of Death.

32They see other people's property as their own, and in egotism, they suffer in pain.

33O Nanak, the egotism of the Gurmukhs is broken, and then, they meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.

34They chant the Naam, meditate on the Naam, and through the Naam, they are absorbed in peace. ||2||

35Pauree:

36Destiny has brought together and united the body and the soul-swan.

37He who created them, also separates them.

38The fools enjoy their pleasures; they must also endure all their pains.

39From pleasures, arise diseases and the commission of sins.

40From sinful pleasures come sorrow, separation, birth and death.

41The fools try to account for their misdeeds, and argue uselessly.

42The judgement is in the Hands of the True Guru, who puts an end to the argument.

43Whatever the Creator does, comes to pass. It cannot be changed by anyone's efforts. ||4||

44Shalok, First Mehla:

45Telling lies, they eat dead bodies.
