    ਸਿਰੀਰਾਗੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥

    Siree Raag, Fifth Mehl:

    ਜਾ ਕਉ ਮੁਸਕਲੁ ਅਤਿ ਬਣੈ ਢੋਈ ਕੋਇ ਨ ਦੇਇ ॥

    When you are confronted with terrible hardships, and no one offers you any support,

    ਲਾਗੂ ਹੋਏ ਦੁਸਮਨਾ ਸਾਕ ਭਿ ਭਜਿ ਖਲੇ ॥

    when your friends turn into enemies, and even your relatives have deserted you,

    ਸਭੋ ਭਜੈ ਆਸਰਾ ਚੁਕੈ ਸਭੁ ਅਸਰਾਉ ॥

    and when all support has given way, and all hope has been lost -

    ਚਿਤਿ ਆਵੈ ਓਸੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਲਗੈ ਨ ਤਤੀ ਵਾਉ ॥੧॥

    if you then come to remember the Supreme Lord God, even the hot wind shall not touch you. ||1||

    ਸਾਹਿਬੁ ਨਿਤਾਣਿਆ ਕਾ ਤਾਣੁ ॥

    Our Lord and Master is the Power of the powerless.

    ਆਇ ਨ ਜਾਈ ਥਿਰੁ ਸਦਾ ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੀ ਸਚੁ ਜਾਣੁ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

    He does not come or go; He is Eternal and Permanent. Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, He is known as True. ||1||Pause||

    ਜੇ ਕੋ ਹੋਵੈ ਦੁਬਲਾ ਨੰਗ ਭੁਖ ਕੀ ਪੀਰ ॥

    If you are weakened by the pains of hunger and poverty,

    ਦਮੜਾ ਪਲੈ ਨਾ ਪਵੈ ਨਾ ਕੋ ਦੇਵੈ ਧੀਰ ॥

    with no money in your pockets, and no one will give you any comfort,

    ਸੁਆਰਥੁ ਸੁਆਉ ਨ ਕੋ ਕਰੇ ਨਾ ਕਿਛੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਕਾਜੁ ॥

    and no one will satisfy your hopes and desires, and none of your works is accomplished -

    ਚਿਤਿ ਆਵੈ ਓਸੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਤਾ ਨਿਹਚਲੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਰਾਜੁ ॥੨॥

    if you then come to remember the Supreme Lord God, you shall obtain the eternal kingdom. ||2||

    ਜਾ ਕਉ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਦੇਹੀ ਵਿਆਪੈ ਰੋਗੁ ॥

    When you are plagued by great and excessive anxiety, and diseases of the body;

    ਗ੍ਰਿਸਤਿ ਕੁਟੰਬਿ ਪਲੇਟਿਆ ਕਦੇ ਹਰਖੁ ਕਦੇ ਸੋਗੁ ॥

    when you are wrapped up in the attachments of household and family, sometimes feeling joy, and then other times sorrow;

    ਗਉਣੁ ਕਰੇ ਚਹੁ ਕੁੰਟ ਕਾ ਘੜੀ ਨ ਬੈਸਣੁ ਸੋਇ ॥

    when you are wandering around in all four directions, and you cannot sit or sleep even for a moment -

    ਚਿਤਿ ਆਵੈ ਓਸੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਤਨੁ ਮਨੁ ਸੀਤਲੁ ਹੋਇ ॥੩॥

    if you come to remember the Supreme Lord God, then your body and mind shall be cooled and soothed. ||3||

    ਕਾਮਿ ਕਰੋਧਿ ਮੋਹਿ ਵਸਿ ਕੀਆ ਕਿਰਪਨ ਲੋਭਿ ਪਿਆਰੁ ॥

    When you are under the power of sexual desire, anger and worldly attachment, or a greedy miser in love with your wealth;

    ਚਾਰੇ ਕਿਲਵਿਖ ਉਨਿ ਅਘ ਕੀਏ ਹੋਆ ਅਸੁਰ ਸੰਘਾਰੁ ॥

    if you have committed the four great sins and other mistakes; even if you are a murderous fiend

    ਪੋਥੀ ਗੀਤ ਕਵਿਤ ਕਿਛੁ ਕਦੇ ਨ ਕਰਨਿ ਧਰਿਆ ॥

    who has never taken the time to listen to sacred books, hymns and poetry -

    ਚਿਤਿ ਆਵੈ ਓਸੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਤਾ ਨਿਮਖ ਸਿਮਰਤ ਤਰਿਆ ॥੪॥

    if you then come to remember the Supreme Lord God, and contemplate Him, even for a moment, you shall be saved. ||4||

    ਸਾਸਤ ਸਿੰਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਬੇਦ ਚਾਰਿ ਮੁਖਾਗਰ ਬਿਚਰੇ ॥

    People may recite by heart the Shaastras, the Simritees and the four Vedas;

    ਤਪੇ ਤਪੀਸਰ ਜੋਗੀਆ ਤੀਰਥਿ ਗਵਨੁ ਕਰੇ ॥

    they may be ascetics, great, self-disciplined Yogis; they may visit sacred shrines of pilgrimage

    ਖਟੁ ਕਰਮਾ ਤੇ ਦੁਗੁਣੇ ਪੂਜਾ ਕਰਤਾ ਨਾਇ ॥

    and perform the six ceremonial rituals, over and over again, performing worship services and ritual bathings.

    ਰੰਗੁ ਨ ਲਗੀ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਤਾ ਸਰਪਰ ਨਰਕੇ ਜਾਇ ॥੫॥

    Even so, if they have not embraced love for the Supreme Lord God, then they shall surely go to hell. ||5||

    ਰਾਜ ਮਿਲਕ ਸਿਕਦਾਰੀਆ ਰਸ ਭੋਗਣ ਬਿਸਥਾਰ ॥

    You may possess empires, vast estates, authority over others, and the enjoyment of myriad of pleasures;

    ਬਾਗ ਸੁਹਾਵੇ ਸੋਹਣੇ ਚਲੈ ਹੁਕਮੁ ਅਫਾਰ ॥

    you may have delightful and beautiful gardens, and issue unquestioned commands;

    ਰੰਗ ਤਮਾਸੇ ਬਹੁ ਬਿਧੀ ਚਾਇ ਲਗਿ ਰਹਿਆ ॥

    you may have enjoyments and entertainments of all sorts and kinds, and continue to enjoy exciting pleasures -

    ਚਿਤਿ ਨ ਆਇਓ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਤਾ ਸਰਪ ਕੀ ਜੂਨਿ ਗਇਆ ॥੬॥

    and yet, if you do not come to remember the Supreme Lord God, you shall be reincarnated as a snake. ||6||

    ਬਹੁਤੁ ਧਨਾਢਿ ਅਚਾਰਵੰਤੁ ਸੋਭਾ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਰੀਤਿ ॥

    You may possess vast riches, maintain virtuous conduct, have a spotless reputation and observe religious customs;

    ਮਾਤ ਪਿਤਾ ਸੁਤ ਭਾਈਆ ਸਾਜਨ ਸੰਗਿ ਪਰੀਤਿ ॥

    you may have the loving affections of mother, father, children, siblings and friends;

    ਲਸਕਰ ਤਰਕਸਬੰਦ ਬੰਦ ਜੀਉ ਜੀਉ ਸਗਲੀ ਕੀਤ ॥

    you may have armies well-equipped with weapons, and all may salute you with respect;

    ਚਿਤਿ ਨ ਆਇਓ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਤਾ ਖੜਿ ਰਸਾਤਲਿ ਦੀਤ ॥੭॥

    But still, if you do not come to remember the Supreme Lord God, then you shall be taken and consigned to the most hideous hell! ||7||

    ਕਾਇਆ ਰੋਗੁ ਨ ਛਿਦ੍ਰੁ ਕਿਛੁ ਨਾ ਕਿਛੁ ਕਾੜਾ ਸੋਗੁ ॥

    You may have a body free of disease and deformity, and have no worries or grief at all;

    ਮਿਰਤੁ ਨ ਆਵੀ ਚਿਤਿ ਤਿਸੁ ਅਹਿਨਿਸਿ ਭੋਗੈ ਭੋਗੁ ॥

    you may be unmindful of death, and night and day revel in pleasures;

    ਸਭ ਕਿਛੁ ਕੀਤੋਨੁ ਆਪਣਾ ਜੀਇ ਨ ਸੰਕ ਧਰਿਆ ॥

    you may take everything as your own, and have no fear in your mind at all;

    ਚਿਤਿ ਨ ਆਇਓ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਜਮਕੰਕਰ ਵਸਿ ਪਰਿਆ ॥੮॥

    but still, if you do not come to remember the Supreme Lord God, you shall fall under the power of the Messenger of Death. ||8||

    ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰੇ ਜਿਸੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਸਾਧੂ ਸੰਗੁ ॥

    The Supreme Lord showers His Mercy, and we find the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

    ਜਿਉ ਜਿਉ ਓਹੁ ਵਧਾਈਐ ਤਿਉ ਤਿਉ ਹਰਿ ਸਿਉ ਰੰਗੁ ॥

    The more time we spend there, the more we come to love the Lord.

    ਦੁਹਾ ਸਿਰਿਆ ਕਾ ਖਸਮੁ ਆਪਿ ਅਵਰੁ ਨ ਦੂਜਾ ਥਾਉ ॥

    The Lord is the Master of both worlds; there is no other place of rest.

    ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਤੁਠੈ ਪਾਇਆ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਚਾ ਨਾਉ ॥੯॥੧॥੨੬॥

    When the True Guru is pleased and satisfied, O Nanak, the True Name is obtained. ||9||1||26||

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ That was an amazing shabad...

  3. Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ke Fateh!!!

    waheguru this is a shame... but i think we should realise how much we are too blame... why did she not feel confident enough in sikhi ... is it because there is no unity in sikhi??? ... maybe she felt that others judged her too much... sometimes we look down upon other fellow sisters and brothers and begin to question how pakkeh they are in thier rehit yet we dont realise what an effect this has on them...

    its easy to caste judgement to other but how much do we really represent sikhi??? next time we judge others lets start to judge ourselves before...

    just ma two pence

    Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ke Fateh!!!
