Hey Gobind Hey Gopal Hey Dyaal Laal – Raag Malaar – Ang 1273

SGGS Angg 1273.

Raag Malaar M.5

A Sikh prays for the Lord’s Mercy in overcoming his miseries. The Shabad is couched as a loving ardas to God.

“O Lord of the Universe, Cherisher of the world, O Merciful Beloved.

“Hey Gobind Hey Gopal Hey Dyaal Laal.” (rahao).

You are the Master of my very breath, the Companion of the forsaken, the Destroyer of the pains of the downtrodden.

“Pran Nath Anath Sakhey Deen Dard Nivaar.”

O All Powerful, Inaccessible, Perfect Lord, please shower Your Mercy upon me.

“Hey Samrath Aggam Puran mohe Mehya dhaar.”

Please carry Nanak across the terrible dark pit of the world, to the other shore.

“Andh kupp maha bhyaan Nanak paar utaar.”

A lovely Shabad to remember and to recite often. Reflect upon it too.
