The Four Letters of Guru Arjun to Guru Ram Das from Shabd Hazaray





maajh mehlaa panjvaa,
chau-pade, ghar pehilaa
Mayraa man lochai gur darshan taa-ee
Bilap karay chaatrik kee ni-aa-ee
Trikhaa na utarai shaant na aavai
Bin Darshan Sant pi-aaray jee-o
Hao gholee jee-o ghol ghumaa-ee
Gur darshan sant pi-aaray jee-o (1)
My soul longs for the Blessed Vision of the Guru.
It cries out like the pied-cuckoo.
My thirst is not quenched, I find no peace,
Without the Vision of the Beloved Saint Guru.
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice,
Unto the Vision of the Beloved Saint Guru. (1)

Tayraa much suhaavaa jee-o sahaj dhun baanee
Chir ho-aa daykhay saaring paanee
Dhan so days jahaa too(n) vasi-aa
Mayray sajan meet muraaray jee-o
Hao gholee hao ghol ghumaa-ee
Gur sajan meet muraaray jee-o (2)
Your face is so beautiful, and the Sound of
Your word imparts Divine Knowledge.
It is so long since the sparrow hawk as had
a glimpse of water.
Blessed is the land where You live,
O my Friend and Intimate Divine Guru.
I am a sacrifice, I am ever a sacrifice,
Unto my Friend and Intimate Divine Guru. (2)

Ik gharee na milatay taa kalijug hotaa
Hun kad milee-ai pri-a tudh bhagavantaa
Mo-eh rain na vihaavai need na aavai
Bin daykhay gur darbaaray jee-o
Hao gholee jee-o ghol ghumaa-ee
Tis sachay gur darbaaray jee-o (3)
When for one moment I could not be with You
The dark Age of Kali Yuga dawned for me.
When shall I meet you, O my Beloved Lord?
I cannot endure the night, and sleep does not come,
Without the sight of the Beloved Guru’s Court.
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice,
Unto that True Court of the Beloved Guru. (3)

Bhaag ho-aa gur sant milaa-i-aa
Prabh abinaasee ghar meh paa-i-aa
Sayv karee pal chasaa na vichhuraa
Jan Naanak daas tumaaray jee-o
Hao gholee jee-o ghol ghumaa-ee
Jan Naanak daas tumaaray jee-o (4)
It is by good fortune that I met the Saintly Guru.
The Immortal Lord, I have found in my home.
I will now ever serve You, and not for even a moment
Will I ever separate myself from You.
Servant Nanak is your slave, O Beloved Master.
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, unto You, O Lord.
Servant Nanak is your slave, O Lord. (4)






These sounds are mantras—verses—written in the form of letters between Guru Arjun, the fifth Guru, and Guru Ram Das, his father, the fourth Guru. There was perfect longing, love and fulfillment in the sentiments, feelings and projection of these letters. Repeating these mantras takes you out of the normal internal chatter and emotional games of the mind we usually live with. It purifies, aligns and strengthens the heart and soul.
