Eight stanzas hymn

ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਧਰ ਊਪਰਿ ਸੁਖਿ ਬਸਹਿ ਸੁਤ ਭ੍ਰਾਤ ਮੀਤ ਬਨਿਤਾ ਸੰਗਿ ਹਸਹਿ
Jih parsāḏ ḏẖar ūpar sukẖ basėh. Suṯ bẖarāṯ mīṯ baniṯā sang hasėh.
One through whose grace you live comfortably on earth. You laugh with son, brother, friend and wife.

ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਪੀਵਹਿ ਸੀਤਲ ਜਲਾ ਸੁਖਦਾਈ ਪਵਨੁ ਪਾਵਕੁ ਅਮੁਲਾ
Jih parsāḏ pīvėh sīṯal jalā. Sukẖ▫ḏā▫ī pavan pāvak amulā.
One through whose grace you drink cold water. Comforting breeze and priceless fire.

ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਭੋਗਹਿ ਸਭਿ ਰਸਾ ਸਗਲ ਸਮਗ੍ਰੀ ਸੰਗਿ ਸਾਥਿ ਬਸਾ
Jih parsāḏ bẖogėh sabẖ rasā. Sagal samagrī sang sāth basā.
One through whose grace all pleasures are enjoyed. All materials are accompanied in living.

ਦੀਨੇ ਹਸਤ ਪਾਵ ਕਰਨ ਨੇਤ੍ਰ ਰਸਨਾ ਤਿਸਹਿ ਤਿਆਗਿ ਅਵਰ ਸੰਗਿ ਰਚਨਾ
Ḏīne hasaṯ pāv karan neṯar rasnā. Ŧisėh ṯi▫āg avar sang racẖnā.
The hands, feet. ears, eyes and tongue are provided. Such is relinquished while busy with others.

ਐਸੇ ਦੋਖ ਮੂੜ ਅੰਧ ਬਿਆਪੇ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਾਢਿ ਲੇਹੁ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਆਪੇ ੨॥
Aise ḏokẖ mūṛ anḏẖ bi▫āpe. Nānak kādẖ leho parabẖ āpe. ||2||
Such unfortunate, ignorant and blind are enmeshed. Guru Nanak, may the creator so save these by self.

ESSENCE: In the salok, Guru ji describe ourselves as spoiled children of the creator. Guru ji say that instead one needs to always remember the creator that sustains in all phases of our lives.

Guru Arjan Dev ji in Astpadi 4, 2nd sabad remind how much is provided for in us. Such including family and friends, food and water, the bodily functions hands, feet, eyes, ears and tongue.


Guru ji state that unfortunate ones ignore all this. Guru ji says may creator save such.

Please note all errors are mine and I stand corrected.

Sat Sri Akal.
