I have not taken the Lord's Name as my Support. ||1||Pause||

Says Kabeer, I have searched the skies,

and have not seen another, equal to the Lord. ||2||34||

Gauree, Kabeer Jee:

That head which was once embellished with the finest turban

- upon that head, the crow now cleans his beak. ||1||

What pride should we take in this body and wealth?

Why not hold tight to the Lord's Name instead? ||1||Pause||

Says Kabeer, listen, O my mind:

this may be your fate as well! ||2||35||

Thirty-Five Steps Of Gauree Gwaarayree. ||

Raag Gauree Gwaarayree, Ashtpadheeyaa Of Kabeer Jee:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

People beg for pleasure, but pain comes instead.

I would rather not beg for that pleasure. ||1||

People are involved in corruption, but still, they hope for pleasure.

How will they find their home in the Sovereign Lord King? ||1||Pause||

Even Shiva and Brahma are afraid of this pleasure,

but I have judged that pleasure to be true. ||2||

Even sages like Sanak and Naarad, and the thousand-headed serpent,

did not see the mind within the body. ||3||

Anyone can search for this mind, O Siblings of Destiny.

When it escapes from the body, where does the mind go? ||4||

By Guru's Grace, Jai Dayv and Naam Dayv

came to know this, through loving devotional worship of the Lord. ||5||

This mind does not come or go.

One whose doubt is dispelled, knows the Truth. ||6||

This mind has no form or outline.

By God's Command it was created; understanding God's Command, it will be absorbed into Him again. ||7||

Does anyone know the secret of this mind?

This mind shall merge into the Lord, the Giver of peace and pleasure. ||8||

There is One Soul, and it pervades all bodies.

Kabeer dwells upon this Mind. ||9||1||36||

Gauree Gwaarayree:

Those who are awake to the One Name, day and night

- many of them have become Siddhas - perfect spiritual beings - with their consciousness attuned to the Lord. ||1||Pause||

The seekers, the Siddhas and the silent sages have all lost the game.

The One Name is the wish-fulfilling Elysian Tree, which saves them and carries them across. ||1||

Those who are rejuvenated by the Lord, do not belong to any other.

Says Kabeer, they realize the Name of the Lord. ||2||37||

Gauree And Also Sorat'h:

O shameless being, don't you feel ashamed?

You have forsaken the Lord - now where will you go? Unto whom will you turn? ||1||Pause||

One whose Lord and Master is the highest and most exalted

- it is not proper for him to go to the house of another. ||1||

That Lord and Master is pervading everywhere.

The Lord is always with us; He is never far away. ||2||

Even Maya takes to the Sanctuary of His Lotus Feet.

Tell me, what is there which is not in His home? ||3||

Everyone speaks of Him; He is All-powerful.

He is His Own Master; He is the Giver. ||4||

Says Kabeer, he alone is perfect in this world,

in whose heart there is none other than the Lord. ||5||38||
