GURU GYAN
THE GURU'S BLESSINGS

Gyaat hua jo tum ho
Jaga man mein umang
Khojoon tumko aap mein
Par paun na tera sang

Drishtiheen disha mein
Lagaun apna dhyan
Naad swar mein hua leen
Par paun na prabhu gyan

Parbat khoja, nagar khoja
Khoja maru aur van
Din aur raat tapasya mein
Khoja chanchal man

Mila tu na path pe
Na hi mandir ya dhaam
Mila kewal ek Bairagi
To kiya use pranam

Yogi charan bana ashray
Kiya indriyon ko main tyag
Guru ke aashirvaad se
Jag gaye mere bhagya

Guru marg dikhaya to
Hua tera darshan
Dhoonda sara vishwa mein
Aur tu bana man darpan


Ever since I sensed You're there
There's been a desire in my heart
To find You within me
Yet I didn't know how to start

So in a sightless direction
I focused my own mind
Lost myself in cosmic sound
Yet the Lord I didn't find

Searched the cities and woods
The desert and every hill
Spent days and nights meditating
Yet I could not find You still

Did not find You on the roads
Nor temple nor any holy spot
I only found a Bairagi (renunciate)
He'll be my Guru I thought

In the shelter of his feet
Renounced senses for a while
And through his infinite blessing
The Divine on me did smile

Through the Guru's blessings
I found what I was looking for
Though I searched the universe
Found You in my soul's mirror
