Love

[Jasy]

You must be able to perceive grace

Even when His divine anger lashes you,

And think of Him always with serenity,

And always, whatever happens, cling to Him

With all you heart and all your soul.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Your love has made me dance to a fast beat!

Your love has taken abode within my heart!

This cup of poison I drank all by myself.

Come, come, O physician, or else I breathe my last!

Your love has made me dance to a fast beat!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is a candle in your heart,

ready to be kindled.

There is a void in your soul,

ready to be filled.

You feel it, don't you?

You feel the separation

from the Beloved.

Invite Him to fill you up,

embrace the fire.

Remind those who tell you otherwise that

Love

comes to you of its own accord,

and the yearning for it

cannot be learned in any school.

~~~~~~~~~

God does not want meditations and austerities

Through love alone can you reach the Abode of Bliss.

~~~~~~~~~

If the world talks ill of me

My heart shall harbour no ill-will:

If am a true worshipper of God

Can ashes leave a stain on a mirror?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

When my mind was cleansed of impurities,

like a mirror of its dust and dirt,

I recognized the Self in me:

When I saw Him dwelling in me,

I realized that He was the Everything

and I was nothing.

~~~~~~~~~~

Learn the meaning of that secret

That God revealed in the Guru Granth:

Whether He makes you happy or unhappy,

Whether He makes you sad or gives you hope,

Even if you lose all you have

Or suffer extremely in the spirit,

Be patient: a hundred divine graces

Are coming from His hand to you.

~~~~~~~~~~~

He who endures patiently the pain

That is sent from God

Will, it is certain, obtain

The strength and truth of faith.

Marvelous news is sent to the patient;

They will win a great joy.
