Namaskar,

 

Japuji Sahib Pauri 17-19 reveals the incomprehensible diversity of

God's creation. Guru Nanak welcomes this wonder and mystery, for all

this is due to His will.

 

Pauri - 17

Asankh Jap Asankh Bhau

Asankh Puja Asankh Tap Tau

Asank Granth Mukh Ved Path

Asankh Jog Man Rahe Udaas

Asankh Bhagat Gun Gyan Vichaar

Asankh Sati Asankh Dataar

Asankh Sur Munh Bhakh Saar

Asankh Maun Live Layee Taar

Qudrat Kavan Kahan Vichaar

Varia Na Javan Ek Vaar

Ju Tudh Bhave Sai Bhali Kaar

Tu Sada Salamat Nirankar

 

Translation

Countless 'slokas' countless desires

Countless prayers countless atonements

Countless books and countless reciters

Countless involved in Yoga remaining detached

Countless devotees explore and observant

Countless pious countless benevolent

Countless warriors bearing enemy's brunt

Countless meditating remaining silent

What can express Thy Powerful Nature

May "I" be sacrificed to this at once

What pleases Thee is goodness abound

Eternal and Immutable only Thou are around

 

 

Pauri - 18

Asankh Moorakh Andh Ghor

Asankh Chor Haram Khor

Asankh Amar Kar Jahi Jor

Asankh Galvadh Hatya Kamahin

Asankh Paapi Paap Kar Jahin

Asankh Kuriar Kure Phirahin

Asankh Malecch Mal Bhakh Khahin

Asankh Nindak Siri Karhin Bhaar

Nanak Neech Kare Vichhaar

Varia Na Javan Ek Vaar

Ju Tudh Bhave Sai Bhali Kaar

Tu Sada Salamat Nirankar

 

Translation

Countless fools spiritually blind

Countless swindlers thriving on spoils

Countless immortalize brutal force

Countless cut-throats "earn" murder

Countless sinners continue to sin

Countless liars imparting falsehood

Countless perverts just eating filth

Countless slanderers adding burdens yonder

Humble Nanak says, ponder !

What can express Thy Powerful Nature

May "I" be sacrificed to this at once

What pleases Thee is goodness abound

Eternal and Immutable only Thou are around.

 

Pauri - 19

Asankh Nav Asankh Thanv

Agam Agam Asankh Loa

Asankh Kahe Sir Bhaar Hoye

Akhari Naam Akhari Salah

Akhari Gyan Geet Gun Gah

Akhari Likhan Bolan Baan

Akharan Sir Sanjog Vakhaan

Jin Eh Likhe Tis Sir Nahin

Jiv Phurmae Tiv Tiv Pahin

Jeta Kita Teta Naun

Vin Naven Nahi Ko Thaun

Qudrat Kavan Kahan Vichaar

Varia Na Javan Ek Vaar

Ju Tudh Bhave Sai Bhali Kaar

Tu Sada Salamat Nirankar

 

Translation

Countless names countless places

Beyond the reach are countless realms

Saying countless itself causes a sin

By Word is the name, by Word the advice

By Word is expressed knowledge and virtue

By Word is writing and speech

By Word is the ordinance of our destiny

Yet the "One" who writes is beyond the Word

As He ordains so do we receive

Thou the Creator Thine the Name

Nothing exists without a name

What can express Thy Powerful Nature

May "I" be sacrificed to this at once

What pleases Thee is goodness abound

Eternal and Immutable only Thou are around.
