Koi aan milavhe mera Pritam pyara hao tis pe aap vechayee – Raag Suhi -Ang 757

SGGS Angg 757/758

Raag Suhi M.4.

Guru Ramdas Ji’s famous Asthpadhi about the state of bairaag. A yearning to meet the Beloved. Although it is called an Asthpadhi it has 32 padas.

Guru Ji starts with a declaration that if someone would lead me to meet my Beloved, I will sell myself to Him.

“Koi aan milavhe mera Pritam pyara hao tis pe aap vechayee.”

I long for the Lord’s Darshan; if the Lord in His Mercy leads me to meet the True Guru I would meditate upon the Name.

“Darshan Har dekhan ke tayee; kirpa kare ta Satgur meleh Har Har Naam dhiayee” (rahao).

In happiness I would adore You; in pain too, I would worship You; if You give me hunger, I would find satisfaction in that too; I would be joyful even in the midst of sorrow.

“Je sukh de ta Tujhe aradhi dukh bhi Tujhe dhiayee; je bhukh de ta eit hi rajaa dukh vich sukh manayee”

(To meet my Beloved, if need be), I would cut my body and mind apart in pieces, burn myself in a fire and offer them all to You.

“Tan man katt katt sabh arpee vich agnee aap jalaiyee”

I would engage in service to You. I would wave the fan over You and carry water for You; I would eat whatever You gave me.

“Pakha feri paani dhova jo devay so khayee”

Poor Nanak has fallen at Your Door; O Lord it is Your Greatness that I would ever be United with You.

“Nanak gareeb dheh bheya Duarey Har melh lehyo vadiaaye”
