525 GUJRI, PADAS OF NAAM DAYV JEE, FIRST HOUSE:ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU: If You gave me an empire, then what glory would be in it for me? If You made me beg for charity, what would it take away from me? ॥1॥ Meditate and vibrate upon the Lord, O my mind, and you shall obtain the state of Nirvaanaa. You shall not have to come and go in reincarnation any longer. ॥1॥ Pause॥ You created all, and You lead them astray in doubt. They alone understand, unto whom You give understanding. ॥2॥ Meeting the True Guru, doubt is dispelled. Who else should I worship? I can see no other. ॥3॥ One stone is lovingly decorated, while another stone is walked upon. If one is a god, then the other must also be a god. Says Naam Dayv, I serve the Lord. ॥4॥1॥ GUJRI, FIRST HOUSE: He 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. No one saw Him come — who can know Him, O Siblings of Destiny? ॥1॥ Who can describe Him? Who can understand Him? The all-pervading Lord has no ancestors, O Siblings of Destiny. ॥1॥ Pause॥ As the path of a bird’s flight across the sky cannot be seen, and the path of a fish through the water cannot be seen;॥2॥ As the mirage leads one to mistake the sky for a pitcher filled with water — so is God, the Lord and Master of Naam Dayv, who fits these three comparisons. ॥3॥2॥ GUJRI, PADAS OF RAVI DAAS JEE, THIRD HOUSE:ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU:
The calf has contaminated the milk in the breasts. The bumble bee has contaminated the flower, and the fish the water. ॥1॥ O mother, where shall I find any offering for the Lord’s worship? I cannot find any other flowers worthy of the incomparable Lord. ॥1॥ Pause॥ The snakes encircle the sandalwood trees. Poison and nectar dwell there together. ॥2॥ Even with incense, lamps, offerings of food and fragrant flowers, how are Your slaves to worship You? ॥3॥ I dedicate and offer my body and mind to You. By Guru’s Grace, I attain the immaculate Lord. ॥4॥ I cannot worship You, nor offer You flowers. Says Ravi Daas, what shall my condition be hereafter? ॥5॥1॥ GUJRI, PADAS OF TRILOCHAN JEE, FIRST HOUSE: ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU: You have not cleansed the filth from within yourself, although outwardly, you wear the dress of a renunciate. In the heart-lotus of your self, you have not recognized God — why have you become a Sannyaasee? ॥1॥
