Gauree Poorbee, Fourth Mehl:
ਕਰਹੁ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਜਗਜੀਵਨ ਦਾਤੇ ਮੇਰਾ ਮਨੁ ਹਰਿ ਸੇਤੀ ਰਾਚੇ ॥
karahu kirpaa jagjeevan daatay mayraa man har saytee raachay.
Show Mercy to me, O Life of the World, O Great Giver, so that my mind may merge with the Lord.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਬਚਨੁ ਦੀਓ ਅਤਿ ਨਿਰਮਲੁ ਜਪਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਮਨੁ ਮਾਚੇ ॥੧॥
satgur bachan dee-o at nirmal jap har har har man maachay. ||1||
The True Guru has bestowed His most pure and sacred Teachings. Chanting the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, Har, my mind is transfixed and enraptured. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Show me mercy, Life of the world, Great Giver, so my mind can melt into you. The true teacher has given the purest teaching, and keeping the One's name, my mind is held spellbound.
Grace lets the mind melt into the One -- and the Name holds it spellbound.
A prayer for grace to merge with the One. The pure teachings of the Guru and the Name leave the mind transfixed, enraptured -- mercy, Guru-given teaching, and the recitation of the Name held together rather than set against each other (Har Ras).
