Wings Of a Butterfly

********************

In ten directions, clouds cover the sky like a canopy.

Through the dark clouds

lightning flashes and I am terrified.

My bed is empty and my eyes are sleepless.

My Lover has gone far away to distant lands.

O mother, I have received no messages.

When my Beloved used to go out, even if nearby,

word would be sent to me.

How could I forget my dear Beloved,

the Giver of peace and all virtues?

Climbing onto the roof, searching for my Lover,

my eyes are full of tears.

The wall of self-centredness and pride separates us,

But now I can hear my Lover nearby.

There is a veil between us,

like the wings of a butterfly.

Without being able to focus properly,

my Lover seems far away.

My Lord has become merciful.

My sorrow has been dispelled.

Says Nanak, when Overflowing Grace burst down

the dam of self-centredness,

I found my Lord truly merciful.

O mother! All of my fears have now gone.

Whatever I seek the Guru leads me to find.

The One, my Sovereign,

is the treasure of all virtues.

Guru Arjun, Guru Granth Sahib, Page 624****************************************
