FOCUS ON THE FORM OF GURU MAHARAJ JI
Chorus
Focus on the form of Guru Maharaj Ji,
Always remember His every word is holy.
In your heart, cherish the Feet of Satguru,
Always pranam to the Supreme Power, the Satguru.
No one should remain in illusion's misery,
Without Satguru no one is ever set free.
To lost souls He is the path and destination,
He removes the false and grants pure devotion.
Satguru ends the sufferings of birth and death,
Endless His glory, infinite His praises.
Truth is revealed only by Satguru's Grace,
The soul becomes intoxicated by His Grace.
His blessings unfold the lotus of the heart,
Light appears within, and darkness departs.
Satguru is the Creator, the Lord of destiny,
He is the Supreme Power, and will always be.
Nanak has been given this revelation:
Without Satguru no one attains liberation.
GLORY TO MAHARAJ JI
YOUR LILAS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL
Chorus
Glory to Maharaj Ji,
Your lilas are so beautiful.
Scriptures sing Your message divine,
Whenever truth is in decline,
You come with Your devotee.
Your lilas are so beautiful.
Now You have come in perfect time
To save us with Your Knowledge divine,
Out of Your Love and Mercy.
Your lilas are so beautiful.
The glory of Your Holy Name is so wonderful,
The melody of Your music is so powerful
Your satsang is so dear to me,
Your lilas are so beautiful.
What a precious Knowledge You have given,
By Your Grace ignorance has been driven,
You enlighten the hearts of all the premies.
Your lilas are so beautiful.
Knowing Your children's desperate needs,
You have planted the heavenly seed;
We all are so grateful to Thee.
Your lilas are so beautiful.
In Your radiant crown and coat,
Take us please on Your divine boat;
Your Darshan is so precious to me.
Your lilas are so beautiful:
GLORY TO THE LOTUS FEET OF GURU MAHARAJ JI
Chorus
Glory to the Lotus Feet of Guru Maharaj Ji,
Glory to the Lotus Feet of Guru Maharaj Ji,
Who has taken my confusion and set me free,
Who has taken my confusion and set me free.
There is deep water
In the ocean's fearful roar.
I was drowning and
Could not reach the shore.
In the twinkling of an eye
He has set me free.
Desires, anger,
And pride were stealing.
My enemies, always,
In all forms living.
But Satguru did not let them
Continue to be.
Feelings of duality Have been removed.
The Absolute One
Is now revealed.
Divine Light now
In every one I see.
Satguru has given me
The Knowledge of Eternity.
Now I have peace and
Visions of divinity.
Maharaj Ji has
Transformed my life completely.
GURU MAHARAJ JI IS PLAYING HOLI
Chorus
Guru Maharaj Ji is playing Holi,
Holi with His devotees.
In the vessel of His love
He has mixed the colors of devotion.
With the spray of His Holy Name
He removes all impurities.
Tabla, sitar and sarangi,
Also drums are playing.
The sweet melody of His flute
Fills the hearts of His premies.
All should join in such a Holi,
Giving up this world.
His premies are always showered
With the rain of His love.
I AM DEPENDENT UPON YOUR NAME
Chorus
I am dependent upon your Name,
My Guru Maharaj Ji.
As the stick to the blind man,
Your Name is to me.
Difficult it is to practice
Penance and austerity.
Your Name alone in Kaliyuga
Can make me free.
If everything is sustained
By the power of Your Name,
Then surely it is possible
To make me one with Thee.
Remembrance of the Holy Name
With faith in the heart,
Ends all the problems
Of my life completely.
I AM LONGING FOR THE LOTUS FEET OF GURU MAHARAJ JI
Chorus
I am longing for the Lotus Feet
Of Guru Maharaj Ji.
I care for nothing but
His holy Lotus Feet.
The nature of this world
is Just like a dream.
His Lotus Feet are
The source of my happiness.
They are my destination
and destiny.
My beloved Lord is
Guru Maharaj Ji.
I always hope to see
His Lotus Feet.
I CAN LEAVE THE WHOLE WORLD BUT I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU
Chorus
I can leave the whole world
But I will never leave You.
My body, mind and all wealth
I would love to give You.
Bestow on me such a faith
Oh my Guru Maharaj Ji,
Oh my Guru Maharaj Ji,
That every moment in my life,
Every moment in my life,
Let me always turn to You.
Your shelter is precious
In my life, Oh my Lord,
In my life, Oh my Lord,
At Your holy Lotus Feet,
At Your holy Lotus Feet,
Let me live this life for You.
You are the only One
Who cares for the helpless,
Who cares for the helpless,
I am begging You, my Lord,
I am begging You, my Lord,
To help me merge with You.
How can I thank You
For what You have done to me,
For what You have done to me.
You have shown me this, my Lord,
You have shown me this, my Lord:
That Your Love is always true.
When I see Your radiant form
All my questions go away,
All my problems go away.
Enchanted by your beauty,
Lost in Your beauty,
I become mad for You.
Your dance is so heavenly,
If fills me with endless joy,
It fills me with endless joy.
I forget the time and place.
Let me please dance with You.
I SURRENDER TO MY SATGURUDEV
Chorus
I surrender to my Satgurudev
Who has driven my doubts away
I surrender to my Satgurudev
He made me drink His cup of love
With immortal herb
Intoxication of Holy Name
Has blown my mind away
Pure light within I saw
Without moon and sun
In His kingdom I blissed out
Hearing music play
Satisfaction grew
In place of discontentment
Attachment and jealousy have gone
By His boundless Grace
Remembrance of the Holy Name
Has taken death away
Now I have found the Perfect Master
Of this day.
IT IS THE SPRING IN MAHARAJ JI'S WORLD
Chorus
It is the spring in Maharaj Ji's world
So let us play Holi.
He has graced us once again,
To be at His Feet.
Very fortunate are they,
Who play and sing His glory.
Leaving all worldly affairs,
Put away prestige.
Take the full advantage of
This opportunity.
In satsang let us recognize,
Guru Maharaj Ji.
In the temple of your heart,
Hold Him very firmly.
In the shower of His love,
May He set us free.
Never has there ever been
Such a wondrous story.
LET MY LOVE BE ALWAYS NEVER ENDING
Chorus
Let my love be always never ending,
Oh Maharaj Ji, at Your Lotus Feet.
I beg You, please accept this prayer,
Oh Maharaj Ji, at Your Lotus Feet.
I surrender the reins of my life to You,
Please take hold of them, my Lord.
Bless me please with your boundless Grace,
Oh Maharaj Ji, at Your Lotus Feet.
NWhen I saw no essence in this world,
I took refuge in Your Lotus Feet.
Please make my surrender complete,
Oh Maharaj Ji, at Your Lotus Feet.
Let my eyes always see Your Divine Form
And the mind absorbed in Your Holy Name,
And the body engaged in Your service,
Oh Maharaj Ji, at Your Lotus Feet.
May the words that I alway speak
Sing the glory of Your Lotus Feet.
Let my feelings be always beautiful,
Oh Maharaj Ji, at Your Lotus Feet.
NOW WE ARE BLESSED WITH YOUR DARSHAN, MAHARAJ JI
Chorus
Now we are blessed with Your darshan, Maharaj Ji,
You are unfolding our destiny, Maharaj Ji.
You are our Mother and Father, Maharaj Ji,
We are Your little children, Maharaj Ji.
You are our Moon and Sun, Maharaj Ji,
We are Your little stars, Maharaj Ji.
You are our Creator and Sustainer, Maharaj Ji,
We are Your little creatures, Maharaj Ji.
You are the Bestower of Grace, Maharaj Ji,
We are the beggars at Your door, Maharaj Ji.
You are the Source of Love, Maharaj Ji,
We are the premies at Your Feet, Maharaj Ji.
REMEMBER THE LORD'S HOLY NAME
Chorus
Remember the Lord's Holy Name,
Life is passing day by day.
Childhood was spent in play,
Youth was under mind's sway,
In old age, body began to decay,
Desires kept your peace away.
Your family, wife and children,
Behold as part of a dream that ends.
This world is Maya's net, oh friends,
When death comes all will be taken away.
He who meditates on Satguru's Name
Will not get caught in Maya's game.
Liberation he is going to attain,
That is what all the sages say.
SINCE I HAVE MET MY SATGURU JI HE HAS UNFOLDED MY DESTINY
Chorus
Since I have met my Satguru Ji
He has unfolded my destiny.
In my heart there is His Name.
On my lips is His message.
Through my eyes I see His beauty.
He is the sustainer of the whole universe
And the supreme Lord of my soul.
This is what my heart is telling me.
He has taken me into His world
And brought my mind to His Lotus Feet.
Now of my troubles I am free.
He is the pure light of my life
And the forgiver of my sins.
Now I am sheltered by His mercy.
SUCH IS THE GRACE OF SATGURUDEV
Chorus
Such is the Grace of my Satgurudev,
That has cut my bondage of Maya away.
I was always chasing day and night
The worldly pleasures and affairs,
But showing the world as a mere dream
He has changed my fickle mind today.
Some worship Krishna and some Lord Buddha
And others pray to the angels and gods,
But making me free from the scriptures and sects,
He's connected my mind with the Word by His Way.
Some visit Mecca and some Bethlehem
And some go to search in Brindaban,
But revealing His all-pervading Form
He has taken all my confusion away.
What can I give to my Satgurudev?
I see nothing in this entire world.
If I offer the wealth of the whole universe,
Still my Satgurudev I could never repay.
TELL ME, OH MY BELOVED, HOW TO BELONG TO THEE
Chorus
Tell me, oh my Beloved
How to belong to Thee
How to belong to Thee
My Beloved Lord, You are so merciful,
Your Lotus Feet are so tender and beautiful.
Tell my, oh my Beloved, how to prostrate to Thee.
I have no self discipline and no austerity;
Mira's pure devotion is also not my property.
Tell me, oh my Beloved, how to really please Thee.
I don't have such sweet plums as Bhilni had;
If I did, You would come and I would be so glad.
Tell me, oh my Beloved, What can I offer Thee?
I have not realized the essence of Love,
Nor do I have Radha's pure Love.
Tell me, oh my Beloved, how to make You dance for me.
My Beloved Lord, dance a little for me,
Please show Thy divine steps to me.
WE ARE TRADERS OF THE HOLY NAME
Chorus
We are traders
Of the Holy Name.
Some deal in copper,
Some deal in silver,
Some deal in spices And grains.
Our trade is perfect,
It is successful,
We have as cargo
The Lord's Name.
We never lose
On this investment,
Our trade divine,
We always gain.
No worldly market
Can hope to stop us,
We trade without
Fear and shame.
The precious jewels
Produced within,
They fill our treasury
Like rain.
The source of all
Is Guru Maharaj Ji,
He is the Giver
Of the Holy Name.
WHEN YOU LEAVE THIS WORLD
Chorus
When you leave this world,
And you go away,
No one will accompany you,
On that day.
Why do you say this is mine?
Everything will be left behind.
No one is going to remain,
You will stay here for a short time.
The soul will fly away.
For the fulfillment of your senses
You are seeking wealth and pleasures.
When death comes to claim you,
You will have to leave all your treasures.
Nothing can you carry away.
This is the river of satsang,
So plunge in, dive deep.
If you miss this golden opportunity,
Then one day you will weep.
Who will wipe your tears away.
So love the Feet of Satguru,
Oh premies, day and night.
He will grant you perfect freedom
From darkness into light.
All your bondage will be cut away.
Only He will accompany you
On that day,
When you leave this world
And you go away,
Only He will accompany you
On that day.
WHEN YOUR MIND IS ALWAYS FIXED AT SATGURU'S FEET
Chorus
When your mind is always fixed at Satguru's Feet,
Only then the purpose of your life will be complete.
Childhood was spent in play,
Youth passes in delusion,
You forget the Lord
And were lost in illusion.
When you reach the old age,
Then how will you meditate?
If you don't surrender now,
Then it will be too late.
There is no guarantee
Given for your life,
Today or tomorrow
Every one is going to die.
Your body will return
To ashes or to dust,
So fulfill the purpose
Of your life first.
Saints and sages
Have come to this conclusion:
Everything of this world
Is nothing but illusion.
True happiness lies
In devotion to the Lord.
All other efforts
Will bring you no reward.
Worship Him wholeheartedly,
And let Him be your all;
Enthrone His divine form
In the temple of your soul.
None can have His precious
Darshan Without longing;
By His Grace alone
Our destiny begins unfolding.
OH WHERE WOULD I GO
LEAVING YOUR LOTUS FEET?
Chorus
Oh where would I go
Leaving Your Lotus Feet?
Who else has the Holy Name
To purify me?
Who else loves the weary and the weak?
Who else has the nature
to persistently save me?
Who else dries my tears when I weep?
Whoever begs You
For your help and Your Mercy,
You take them across the ocean deep.
Who else has the power
To free me from maya?
Who else showers such a love so sweet?
I am Yours alone,
My Guru Maharaj Ji:
Please make my surrender complete.
WITH THE DOWNPOUR OF THE HOLY NAME
Chorus
With the downpour of the Holy Name
The Divine Colors began to rain;
Began to rain, began to rain,
Began to rain, began to rain,
With the downpour of the Holy Name
The Divine Colors began to rain.
The problems of birth and death disappear
When the longing for Holy Name appears;
My Satguru gave me the sign,
I have found my true home again.
True home again, true home again,
True home again, true home again.
The spirit ascended through the inner gate
And came to the Lord's palace in perfect state;
There the Unstruck Music was played,
And its sweetness removed all suffering and pain.
No more suffering and pain,
No more suffering and pain,
No more suffering and pain,
No more suffering and pain,
Resting at the Feet of my only Beloved,
All of my questions and doubts were ended;
The cycle of karma was cut away,
Fear has gone, liberation attained.
Liberation attained, liberation attained,
Liberation attained, liberation attained.
Satguru gave me the key to realize,
His Word is my path, straight as the eagle flies;
Boundless joy has sprung in my heart,
Death has been conquered and freedom obtained.
Freedom obtained, freedom obtained,
Freedom obtained, freedom obtained.
I AM IN MY DEVOTEE'S EYES
Chorus
I am in my devotee's eyes
My devotees are in my eyes
I never let them from my sight
This is the beauty of my eyes.
I remember those who remember me
I don't care for cast (sic) or creed
I always do what they ask of me
There is love for devotees in my eyes.
Chorus
I can break my promise whenever I please
But I never break the promise of my devotees
The pictures of my devotees
Are always dancing in my eyes.
Chorus
I don't live in heaven or hermitages
Nor do I live in the minds of sages
I am always with my devotees
For they are always in my eyes.
Chorus
If they are lost I will always be
Within the call of my devotees
If they ask I will give my all
Liberation and Devotion are in my eyes.
Chorus
WHEN SOMEONE BREAKS YOUR HEART
Chorus
When someone breaks your heart dear
Leaving you alone suffering in tears
Then oh my beloved come back to me
My door was opened and is open for thee.
Now you feel no need for me,
Many lovers you have found,
Illusion of beauty has conquered your heart,
Your friends like flowers garland you around,
When the mirror begins to scare you one day,
And you find your youth is slipping away,
Then oh my beloved come back to me
My heart has embraced and will embrace thee.
Chorus
Love has no limit it is always free,
But you have put conditions on it,
When I began showering my love on thee,
Now you just want to give up and quit,
When you begin to grope in despair,
Caught in the darkness of mind's lair,
Then oh my beloved come back to me,
My lamp of love was burning and is burning for thee.
Chorus
You asked for Knowledge revealed to you,
To help you find the Truth within,
When the time has come to use my gift,
Your mind now wishes for a chance to begin,
When you find your life all scattered around,
Suffering and misery and confusion abound,
Then oh my beloved come back to me,
My Grace was ready and is ready for thee.
APANI HASTI
Chorus
Those who lose their existence,
into your Lotus Feet,
They please You, Oh my Lord,
with surrender complete.
What can be said about your devotees,
who love You so much,
Their tears of longing
bring tears to your eyes so sweet.
Chorus
They beg You to come, Oh Lord,
with such a voice,
Their devotion compels You
to come to see your devotees.
Chorus
Even though hardships, poverty
and troubles come to them,
They are welcomed as gifts
from your Holy Lotus Feet.
Chorus
BLESS ME WITH SUCH A STRENGTH, OH MY SATGURUDEV
Chorus
Bless me with such a strength, Oh my Satgurudev
That I completely dissolve in devotion to You.
Even though many problems may come in my way,
I may still always be singing praises of You.
I really have no need for anyone's help,
Your help alone is all that I need.
Let my feet never falter upon your path;
With implicit faith in your Name I may move on towards You.
Chorus
The boat of my life is loaded with sins,
And I fear that I may fall asleep again.
Please shower your blessings, Oh Lord, upon me,
That I may always be awake and devoted to You.
Chorus
You have so many like me, Oh my precious Lord,
But for me now I know there is only You.
I want always to bathe in the love of Your Feet;
Please help me to surrender this life to You.
Chorus
I am the slave of Your Lotus Feet,
To them alone I hold on, my Lord.
What care have I for worldly friends;
I only want to merge with You.
Chorus
