Sārag mėhlā 5.  Re mūṛĥe ān kāhe kaṯ jā▫ī.  Sang manohar amriṯ hai re bẖūl bẖūl bikẖ kẖā▫ī. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Saarag. (Rey) o (moorrhey) mindless person (kaahey) why do you (jaai) go (kat) anywhere (aan = other) else?

(Rey) o dear, you have (sang-i) with you (manohar = fascinating) the wonderful (amrit-u) life-giving elixir; but you (bhool-i bhool-i) keep forgetting that and (khaaee) consume (bikh-u) poison, i.e. Naam or Divine virtues and commands are within you – whose practice enables to find God – but you follow others to perform rituals and idol worship which do not achieve anything. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and reflect.  

 

ਪ੍ਰਭ ਸੁੰਦਰ ਚਤੁਰ ਅਨੂਪ ਬਿਧਾਤੇ ਤਿਸ ਸਿਉ ਰੁਚ ਨਹੀ ਰਾਈ ॥ ਮੋਹਨਿ ਸਿਉ ਬਾਵਰ ਮਨੁ ਮੋਹਿਓ ਝੂਠਿ ਠਗਉਰੀ ਪਾਈ ॥੧॥

(Prabh) the Almighty is (sundar) good looking, (chatur) clever, (anoop) unique; you do not have (raaee = mustard seed) a bit of (ruch) liking for that (bidhaatey) Creator and seek company elsewhere.

Your (baavar) crazy (man-u) mind (mohio) is charmed (sio) by (mohan-i = enticer) temptations as if some cheat has (paai) administered (tthagauri) an intoxicant (jhootth-i = of falsehood) of liking for transitory pleasures to you. 1.

(Daiaal-u) the compassionate (kripaal-u) merciful Almighty, (dukh = grief, harta = dispeller) the giver of solace, enabled me to (ban-i aai) get along (sio) with, i.e. be in company with and follow the example of, (santan = saints) the seekers of God.

I (paaey) have found (sagal) all (nidhaan) treasures (mah-i) in (gharai) the house itself, i.e. have found Naam or Divine virtues and commands – the guide for life, within – and I remain (samaai) absorbed (jot-i = in light) in the Supreme Spirit, i.e. conduct myself by Naam, says fifth Nanak. 2. 21. 44.

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Saarag. (Preet-i) affection for (pria) the Beloved (oa-n/oankaar) Creator was (pahilareea) already present (cheet-i) in my mind – but I was oblivious of it.

O (meyrey) my (satigur) true guru, (jo) when (tau) you (deeo) gave me (bachan-u = word) the guidance – I became aware of Naam or virtues and commands of the Almighty within – and (tau) then I (saaj) embellished and (seegareeaa) adorned myself, i.e. I have molded my life by Naam hoping to be liked by God. 1.

(Ham) we (bhoolah) make mistakes while (tum) You are (sadaa) ever (abh0oola) infallible; (ham) we (patit = fallen) succumb to vices and (tum) You (udhareeaa = lift) take out (patit) those fallen to vices, o Almighty.

(Ham) we are (neech) lowly trees1 – which have no virtues – but You are (mailaagar) the sandalwood tree – which spreads fragrance to other trees (sang-i = with) near it, i.e. You impart virtues to the virtue-less; please preserve my (laaj) honor  and unite me with You, I (basareea = dwell,  sang-i = with) have placed myself in Your care and obedience. 1.

(Tum) you are (gambheer) profound, (dheer) patient and (upkaari = do-gooder) benevolent; while (ham) we (bapurey) poor (jantaari) creatures (kiaa = what?) have no virtues.

(Kripaal) the kind (gur) guru (meylio = caused to meet) engaged me in your obedience; (tau) since then (meyri) my (seyjareeaa = bed) longing mind is (sookh-i) at peace, says fifth Nanak. 2. 22. 45.

O Almighty, (ihu) this (tan-u) body is (tumhra = your) given by You, (sabh-u) the whole (grih-u) house and (dhan-u) wealth is (tumhra) given by You; I (keeo = made, kurbaanaa’n = sacrifice) have dedicated my (hee’nau) soul/mind to You. 1.

(Peykh-i) seeing Your (dristtaana = sight) vision for (eyk) one (nimakh) moment is like (paaey) obtaining (sukh) comforts of (kott-i) crores and lakhs of (raaj) kingdoms.

(Jau) if You (kahau) say (mukhahu) from the mouth to (baiseeai) sit (ih-u = here) with You, (ant-u = limit) the measure of that (sukh) comfort/happiness is (na = not jaanaa-n = known) beyond description, says fifth Nanak. 2. 23. 46.

(Gur-i) the guru (keeney = made, vasgat-i = under control) helped me control (panch) the five (daas = servants) sensory organs and (man) the mind has become (nihchal) steady – does not succumb to temptations and commit transgressions – and is (nirbhaiaa = fearless) free of apprehensions for any retribution for transgressions.

Now, the mind neither (aavai) comes nor (jaavai) goes (kat hi) anywhere; it does not (ddolai) waver, in face of temptations and is now (thir-u) unshakable and (raajaiaa = king) in control of everything, says fifth Nanak. 2. 24. 47.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and reflect.  

 

ਸੂਖ ਮੰਗਲ ਕਲਿਆਣ ਜਿਸਹਿ ਘਰਿ ਤਿਸ ਹੀ ਸਰਣੀ ਪਾਈਐ ॥ ਤਿਸਹਿ ਤਿਆਗਿ ਮਾਨੁਖੁ ਜੇ ਸੇਵਹੁ ਤਉ ਲਾਜ ਲੋਨੁ ਹੋਇ ਜਾਈਐ ॥੧॥

If you (tiaag-i) forsake (tisah-i) that Master and (seyvhu = serve) beseech (maanuk-u) a human being – then nothing is achieved and one (mar-i jaaeeai) dies with (laaj) shame like (lon-u) salt dissolves in water. 1.

(Jab) when the child (bastou) stays (sang-i) with You, (tau) then it is (arog) free of ill-ness; but (chhuttkat) on being separated (hoey) becomes (ravaarai) like dust, i.e. one does not fall prey to vices when one keeps God in mind, and vice versa. 1.

Fifth Nanak (saarai = reaches) makes (ih) this (binti) supplication: May I not (bisrai) forget Naam or Divine virtues and commands; for it is (tab) then that (jeevan-u) life is (paaeeai) obtained, i.e. one does not fall prey to vices. 2. 29. 52.

Sārag mėhlā 5.  Man ṯe bẖai bẖa▫o ḏūr parā▫i▫o.  Lāl ḏa▫i▫āl gulāl lādile sahj sahj gun gā▫i▫o. ||1|| rahā▫o.

 

Composition of the fifth Guru in Raga Saarag. (Bhai bhau) all types of fear (paraaio) is put (door-i) away (tey) from (man) the mind, i.e. one has no fear of any retribution:

When one (sahj-i) naturally and (sahj-i) steadfastly (gaaio = sings) praises and emulates (gun) virtues of (laal) the Beloved, (daiaal) kind Almighty (gulaal = deep red color) the epitome of love, i.e. when one lovingly obeys the kind Almighty all the time – and not remember only when in need. 1.

(Rahaau) dwell on this and reflect.  

 

ਗੁਰ ਬਚਨਾਤਿ ਕਮਾਤ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਤੇ ਬਹੁਰਿ ਨ ਕਤਹੂ ਧਾਇਓ ॥ ਰਹਤ ਉਪਾਧਿ ਸਮਾਧਿ ਸੁਖ ਆਸਨ ਭਗਤਿ ਵਛਲੁ ਗ੍ਰਿਹਿ ਪਾਇਓ ॥੧॥

Gur bacẖnāṯ kamāṯ kirpā ṯe bahur na kaṯhū ḏẖā▫i▫o. Rahaṯ upāḏẖ samāḏẖ sukẖ āsan bẖagaṯ vacẖẖal garihi pā▫i▫o. ||1||

 

If one (kamaat-i) carries out (bachnaat-i = words) instructions of (gur) the guru (tey) with (kirpa = kindness) motivation of the Master then one does not (dhaaio = run) go (katahoo) anywhere (bahur-i) again, i.e. does not engage in rituals or worships of idols.

(Upaadh-i = physical ailments – metaphor for) propensity to fall prey to vices (rahat) ends and one (sukh aasan = sitting cross-legged) sits comfortably, i.e. remains naturally (samaadh-i = in meditation) absorbed in the Almighty; this is how the Almighty (vachhal-u) the lover (bahagt-i) of devotees is (paaiao) found (grih-i = in home) within. 1.

 

ਨਾਦ ਬਿਨੋਦ ਕੋਡ ਆਨੰਦਾ ਸਹਜੇ ਸਹਜਿ ਸਮਾਇਓ ॥ ਕਰਨਾ ਆਪਿ ਕਰਾਵਨ ਆਪੇ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਆਪਿ ਆਪਾਇਓ ॥੨॥੩੦॥੫੩॥

Nāḏ binoḏ kod ānanḏā sėhje sahj samā▫i▫o. Karnā āp karāvan āpe kaho Nānak āp āpā▫i▫o. ||2||30||53||

 

One then (samaaiao) remains absorbed (sahjey) naturally in (sahj-i) state of poise and experiences (naad) music, (binod) plays and (kodd = crores) crores, i.e. abundant (aananda) bliss/happiness.

The Almighty (aap-i) IT-self (karna) does and (aapey) IT-self (karaavan) gets things done and (aap-i) IT-self (aapaaio = makes own) accepts for union,  – so the devotee has no anxiety – says fifth Nanak. 2. 30. 53.
