My Mind Pines for Guru’s Vision | Sabad of the Week The Sikh Cast

My mind pines for Guru’s vision,
It pleads like a thirsty chatrik*.
Thirst unquenchable, tranquility impossible,
without vision of Beloved-Guru, O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath. 1.
I adore You, adoringly centered on Truth-Exemplar Beloved Guru’s vision,
O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath.  1. Reflect.
 
Your peaceful face, O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath;
Your lyrics emit a natural melody.
It has been a while since I have seen the Master-Archer.
Fortunate is the homeland-heart where You dwell,
My Beloved Friend, Darkness-Destroyer, O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath. 2.
I adore You, adoringly centered on Beloved-Guru, Friend, Darkness-Destroyer,
O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath.  1. Reflect.
 
One moment without meeting You becomes like the age of ignorance.
When can I meet You, Dear, Divine-like?
My night is not passing, I cannot sleep without a glimpse of Guru’s Court,
O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath. 3.
I adore You, adoringly centered on Guru’s Eternal Court,
O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath. 1. Reflect.
 
By good fortune, Truth-Exemplar Guru united me,
I discovered the Immortal-Divine within my home-heart.
I serve never parting for a moment, even for an instant;
Servant Nanak is Your votary, O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath. 4.
I adore You, adoringly centered, servant Nanak Your votary,
O! Life of Life, O! Breath of Breath. 1. Reflect.
