[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 104161, member: 35"] A shabad starts stating the house or mehala (this gives the number of the guru who composed that part of the raag). Tthe raag usually ends with the statement Nanak says, or similar wording. Example below starts on Ang 19, line 7 in Sri raag. The mehalaa or house is 1 - Which means the first Guru, Nanak Dev. [COLOR=Sienna] ਸਿਰੀਰਾਗੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ॥ sireeraag mehalaa 1 || Siree Raag, First Mehl: [/COLOR] [COLOR=Sienna] ਸੁੰਞੀ ਦੇਹ ਡਰਾਵਣੀ ਜਾ ਜੀਉ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਜਾਇ ॥ sunnjee dhaeh ddaraavanee jaa jeeo vichahu jaae || The empty body is dreadful, when the soul goes out from within.
