Guru Granth Sahib 525 · Raag Gujri

1Goojaree, Padhay Of Naam Dayv Jee, First House:

2One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

3If You gave me an empire, then what glory would be in it for me?

4If You made me beg for charity, what would it take away from me? ||1||

5Meditate and vibrate upon the Lord, O my mind, and you shall obtain the state of Nirvaanaa.

6You shall not have to come and go in reincarnation any longer. ||1||Pause||

7You created all, and You lead them astray in doubt.

8They alone understand, unto whom You give understanding. ||2||

9Meeting the True Guru, doubt is dispelled.

10Who else should I worship? I can see no other. ||3||

11One stone is lovingly decorated,

12while another stone is walked upon.

13If one is a god, then the other must also be a god.

14Says Naam Dayv, I serve the Lord. ||4||1||

15Goojaree, First House:

16He does not have even a trace of impurity - He is beyond impurity. He is fragrantly scented - He has come to take His Seat in my mind.

17No one saw Him come - who can know Him, O Siblings of Destiny? ||1||

18Who can describe Him? Who can understand Him? The all-pervading Lord has no ancestors, O Siblings of Destiny. ||1||Pause||

19As the path of a bird's flight across the sky cannot be seen,

20and the path of a fish through the water cannot be seen;||2||

21As the mirage leads one to mistake the sky for a pitcher filled with water

22- so is God, the Lord and Master of Naam Dayv, who fits these three comparisons. ||3||2||

23Goojaree, Padhay Of Ravi Daas Jee, Third House:

24One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

25The calf has contaminated the milk in the teats.

26The bumble bee has contaminated the flower, and the fish the water. ||1||

27O mother, where shall I find any offering for the Lord's worship?

28I cannot find any other flowers worthy of the incomparable Lord. ||1||Pause||

29The snakes encircle the sandalwood trees.

30Poison and nectar dwell there together. ||2||

31Even with incense, lamps, offerings of food and fragrant flowers,

32how are Your slaves to worship You? ||3||

33I dedicate and offer my body and mind to You.

34By Guru's Grace, I attain the immaculate Lord. ||4||

35I cannot worship You, nor offer You flowers.

36Says Ravi Daas, what shall my condition be hereafter? ||5||1||

37Goojaree, Padhay Of Trilochan Jee, First House:

38One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

39You have not cleansed the filth from within yourself, although outwardly, you wear the dress of a renunciate.

40In the heart-lotus of your self, you have not recognized God - why have you become a Sannyaasee? ||1||
