ਇਕ ਬਾਬਾ ਅਕਾਲ ਰੂਪੁ ਦੂਜਾ ਰਬਾਬੀ ਮਰਦਾਨਾ।

Iku Baabaa Akaal Rupoo Doojaa Rabaabee Maradaanaa |

Firstly, Baba himself was in the form of Timeless and secondly, he had his companion Mardana, the rebeck player.

ਦਿਤੀ ਬਾਂਗਿ ਨਿਵਾਜਿ ਕਰਿ ਸੁੰਨਿ ਸਮਾਨਿ ਹੋਆ ਜਹਾਨਾ।

Ditee Baangi Nivaaji Kari Sunni Samaani Hoaa Jahaanaa |

For namaz (in his own style), Baba gave call, listening to which the whole world went into absolute silence.

ਸੁੰਨ ਮੁੰਨਿ ਨਗਰੀ ਭਈ ਦੇਖਿ ਪੀਰ ਭਇਆ ਹੈਰਾਨਾ।

Sunn Munni Nagaree Bhaee Daykhi Peer Bhaiaa Hairaanaa |

The whole city became quiet and lo! to behold it, the pir (of the town) also got wonderstruck.

ਵੇਖੈ ਧਿਆਨੁ ਲਗਾਇ ਕਰਿ ਇਕੁ ਫਕੀਰੁ ਵਡਾ ਮਸਤਾਨਾ।

Vaykhai Dhiaanu Lagaai Kari Iku Dhakeeru Vadaa Masataanaa |

Observing minutely he found (in the form of Baba Nanak) an exhilerated faquir.

ਪੁਛਿਆ ਫਿਰਿਕੈ ਦਸਤਗੀਰ ਕਉਣ ਫਕੀਰ ਕਿਸਕਾ ਘਰਿਹਾਨਾ।

Puchhiaa Firi Kai Dasatageer Kaun Dhakeeru Kisakaa Ghariaanaa

Pir Dastegir asked him, which category of faquir you belong to and what is your parentage.

ਨਾਨਕ ਕਲਿ ਵਿਚਿ ਆਇਆ ਰਬੁ ਫਕੀਰੁ ਇਕੋ ਪਹਿਚਾਨਾ।

Naanak Kali Vichi Aaiaa Rabu Dhakeeru Iko Pahichaanaa |

(Mardana told) He is Nanak, who has come into kaliyug, and, he recognises God and His faquirs as one.

ਧਰਤਿ ਆਕਾਸ ਚਹੂਦਿਸ ਜਾਨਾ ॥੩੫॥

Dharati Aakaas Chahoo Disi Jaanaa ||35 ||

He is known in all the directions besides earth and sky.
