A humble prayer at the Lotus Feet of Wahiguru Jee:
Nam daan ab Satguru deejeh
Give the gift of Nam, O Satguru
Kal sataveh, swasaa cheejeh
Kal torments me, while my life is wearing away
Dukh pawat, mein nis din bhari
Having suffered deeply, day and night
Gahee aye ab, aut Tumharee
I now take refuge in you
Tum saman, koee aur na Daata
There is no giver as generous as you
Mein balak, Tum pita aur mata
I am your child, you are my mother you are my Father
Moh ko dukhee, Aap kas dekho
I am perplexed when I consider
Yeh achraj mohe hoth parekho
how can You bear to see me, your own child in such pain
Mein hoon paapi,adam vikaree
I am a sinner, a degenerate
Bhoola chukaa, chin chin bharee
and time and again I ahve gone astray
Augun apne,kehan lag vernu
How can I describe my countless shorcomings
Meree budhee samjeh nahee marmu
My mind fails to understand the mystery
Tumree gati-mati, nek na janoo
I can not comprehend your status, your qualities
Apni mat anusar bakhanoo
I can only describe them, from my own standpoint
Tum Samrath aur Anteryami
You are all powerful and all knowing
kya kya kahoo mein, Satgur Soami
What more can I say, Lord Satguru
Mauj karo, dukh anter haroh
Take away the anguish of my heart
Daya drishtee, ab moh pe dharo
Have a merciful glance, now on on me
Mangoo Nam, na mangoo maan
So that I beg for Nam, not for the honour of the world
Jas janoh, tas deho mohe daan
Grant me this gift, as and when you see fit
Mein atee deen, bikharee bukha
I am a poor beggar, distressed and downcast
Prem bhav nahee, sabh bidhee rukhaa
faithless and without love, dry and dust
Kaisay dogeh Nam amola
How will you ever find me ever worthy of your invaluable Nam
Mein apne kau, bhau bidh tola
I take a hard look at myself and wonder
Hoe nirash, sabar kar betha
Weary and despairing, I am now resigned to my lot
Par man dheeraj, dhareh na neka
but my mind is without peace, still hoping
Sahid kabhee, meher ho jaaveh
That grace may descend, one day
Toh kahun, Nam nek miljaave
and I may receive the priceless Nam
Bina meher, koee jatan na soojhey
Without Grace, no plans can materialize
Bakshish hoe, tabhee kuch bhoojey
Only with Grace, can I comprehend the mystery
Kinka Nam kareh mera kaaj
Only a particle of your Nam, would fulfil the purpose of my life
Hey Satgur, tumko merre laaj
O Master, You are the protector of my honour
Abh toh man kar chuka pookar
Spent with praying, my heart cries out
Satguru, karoh udhaar
My Lord Satguru, deliver me from my bonds.
Saints,
Gurmukhs, through their teachings, show us the reality of this
perishable world, and create that type awareness in us, so that we may
ask only the Lord, from the Lord, through the path of surrender, love
and devotion at His Lotus feet.
