Gond, The Word Of Kabeer Jee, Second House:

ੴ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ॥

Ik Oankar Sathigur Prasadh ||

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

ਭੁਜਾ ਬਾਂਧਿ ਭਿਲਾ ਕਰਿ ਡਾਰਿਓ ॥

Bhuja Bandhh Bhila Kar Ddariou ||

They tied my arms, bundled me up, and threw me before an elephant.

ਹਸਤੀ ਕ੍ਰੋਪਿ ਮੂੰਡ ਮਹਿ ਮਾਰਿਓ ॥

Hasathee Krop Moondd Mehi Mariou ||

The elephant driver struck him on the head, and infuriated him.

ਹਸਤਿ ਭਾਗਿ ਕੈ ਚੀਸਾ ਮਾਰੈ ॥

Hasath Bhag Kai Cheesa Marai ||

But the elephant ran away, trumpeting,

ਇਆ ਮੂਰਤਿ ਕੈ ਹਉ ਬਲਿਹਾਰੈ ॥੧॥

Eia Moorath Kai Ho Baliharai ||1||

"I am a sacrifice to this image of the Lord."||1||

ਆਹਿ ਮੇਰੇ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਤੁਮਰਾ ਜੋਰੁ ॥

Ahi Maerae Thakur Thumara Jor ||

O my Lord and Master, You are my strength.

ਕਾਜੀ ਬਕਿਬੋ ਹਸਤੀ ਤੋਰੁ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Kajee Bakibo Hasathee Thor ||1|| Rehao ||

The Qazi shouted at the driver to drive the elephant on. ||1||Pause||

ਰੇ ਮਹਾਵਤ ਤੁਝੁ ਡਾਰਉ ਕਾਟਿ ॥

Rae Mehavath Thujh Ddaro Katt ||

He yelled out, ""O driver, I shall cut you into pieces.

ਇਸਹਿ ਤੁਰਾਵਹੁ ਘਾਲਹੁ ਸਾਟਿ ॥

Eisehi Thuravahu Ghalahu Satt ||

Hit him, and drive him on!""

ਹਸਤਿ ਨ ਤੋਰੈ ਧਰੈ ਧਿਆਨੁ ॥

Hasath N Thorai Dhharai Dhhian ||

But the elephant did not move; instead, he began to meditate.

ਵਾ ਕੈ ਰਿਦੈ ਬਸੈ ਭਗਵਾਨੁ ॥੨॥

Va Kai Ridhai Basai Bhagavan ||2||

The Lord God abides within his mind. ||2||

ਕਿਆ ਅਪਰਾਧੁ ਸੰਤ ਹੈ ਕੀਨ੍ਹ੍ਹਾ ॥

Kia Aparadhh Santh Hai Keenha ||

What sin has this Saint committed,

ਬਾਂਧਿ ਪੋਟ ਕੁੰਚਰ ਕਉ ਦੀਨ੍ਹ੍ਹਾ ॥

Bandhh Pott Kunchar Ko Dheenha ||

That you have made him into a bundle and thrown him before the elephant?

ਕੁੰਚਰੁ ਪੋਟ ਲੈ ਲੈ ਨਮਸਕਾਰੈ ॥

Kunchar Pott Lai Lai Namasakarai ||

Lifting up the bundle, the elephant bows down before it.

ਬੂਝੀ ਨਹੀ ਕਾਜੀ ਅੰਧਿਆਰੈ ॥੩॥

Boojhee Nehee Kajee Andhhiarai ||3||

The Qazi could not understand it; he was blind. ||3||

ਤੀਨਿ ਬਾਰ ਪਤੀਆ ਭਰਿ ਲੀਨਾ ॥

Theen Bar Patheea Bhar Leena ||

Three times, he tried to do it.

ਮਨ ਕਠੋਰੁ ਅਜਹੂ ਨ ਪਤੀਨਾ ॥

Man Kathor Ajehoo N Patheena ||

Even then, his hardened mind was not satisfied.

ਕਹਿ ਕਬੀਰ ਹਮਰਾ ਗੋਬਿੰਦੁ ॥

Kehi Kabeer Hamara Gobindh ||

Says Kabeer, such is my Lord and Master.

ਚਉਥੇ ਪਦ ਮਹਿ ਜਨ ਕੀ ਜਿੰਦੁ ॥੪॥੧॥੪॥

Jis No Har Bhagath Sach Bakhaseean So Sacha Sahu ||

He alone is a true king, whom the Lord blesses with true devotion.

ਤਿਸ ਕੀ ਮੁਹਤਾਜੀ ਲੋਕੁ ਕਢਦਾ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਹਟਿ ਨ ਵਥੁ ਨ ਵੇਸਾਹੁ ॥

This Kee Muhathajee Lok Kadtadha Horath Hatt N Vathh N Vaesahu ||

People pledge their allegiance to him; no other store stocks this merchandise, nor deals in this trade.

ਭਗਤ ਜਨਾ ਕਉ ਸਨਮੁਖੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਸੁ ਹਰਿ ਰਾਸਿ ਲਏ ਵੇਮੁਖ ਭਸੁ ਪਾਹੁ ॥

Bhagath Jana Ko Sanamukh Hovai S Har Ras Leae Vaemukh Bhas Pahu ||

That humble devotee who turns his face towards the Guru and becomes sunmukh, receives the Lord's wealth; the faithless baymukh, who turns his face away from the Guru, gathers only ashes.

ਹਰਿ ਕੇ ਨਾਮ ਕੇ ਵਾਪਾਰੀ ਹਰਿ ਭਗਤ ਹਹਿ ਜਮੁ ਜਾਗਾਤੀ ਤਿਨਾ ਨੇੜਿ ਨ ਜਾਹੁ ॥

Har Kae Nam Kae Vaparee Har Bhagath Hehi Jam Jagathee Thina Naerr N Jahu ||

The Lord's devotees are dealers in the Name of the Lord. The Messenger of Death, the tax-collector, does not even approach them.

Servant Nanak has loaded the wealth of the Name of the Lord, who is forever independent and care-free. ||7||

He Himself is pleased with His humble devotees; my Beloved Lord attaches them to Himself.

Pathisahee Bhagath Jana Ko Dhitheean Sir Shhath Sacha Har Banae ||

The Lord blesses His humble devotees with royalty; He fashions the true crown upon their heads.

ਸਦਾ ਸੁਖੀਏ ਨਿਰਮਲੇ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਕੀ ਕਾਰ ਕਮਾਇ ॥

Sadha Sukheeeae Niramalae Sathigur Kee Kar Kamae ||

They are always at peace, and immaculately pure; they perform service for the True Guru.

ਰਾਜੇ ਓਇ ਨ ਆਖੀਅਹਿ ਭਿੜਿ ਮਰਹਿ ਫਿਰਿ ਜੂਨੀ ਪਾਹਿ ॥

Rajae Oue N Akheeahi Bhirr Marehi Fir Joonee Pahi ||

They are not said to be kings, who die in conflict, and then enter again the cycle of reincarnation.

Naanak Vin Navai Nakanaee Vadtanaee Firehi Sobha Mool N Pahi ||1||

O Nanak, without the Name of the Lord, they wander about with their noses cut off in disgrace; they get no respect at all. ||1||
