devagandhaaree 5 |

Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehl:

ਜਾਨੀ ਨ ਜਾਈ ਤਾ ਕੀ ਗਾਤਿ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

jaanee na jaaee taa kee gaat |1| rahaau |

His state cannot be known. ||1||Pause||

ਕਹ ਪੇਖਾਰਉ ਹਉ ਕਰਿ ਚਤੁਰਾਈ ਬਿਸਮਨ ਬਿਸਮੇ ਕਹਨ ਕਹਾਤਿ ॥੧॥

keh pekhaarau hau kar chaturaaee bisaman bisame kehan kahaat |1|

How can I behold Him through clever tricks? Those who tell this story are wonder-struck and amazed. ||1||

ਗਣ ਗੰਧਰਬ ਸਿਧ ਅਰੁ ਸਾਧਿਕ ॥

gan gandharab sidh ar saadhik |

The servants of God, the celestial singers, the Siddhas and the seekers,

ਸੁਰਿ ਨਰ ਦੇਵ ਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਬ੍ਰਹਮਾਦਿਕ ॥

sur nar dev braham brahamaadik |

the angelic and divine beings, Brahma and those like Brahma,

ਚਤੁਰ ਬੇਦ ਉਚਰਤ ਦਿਨੁ ਰਾਤਿ ॥

chatur bed ucharat din raat |

and the four Vedas proclaim, day and night,

ਅਗਮ ਅਗਮ ਠਾਕੁਰੁ ਆਗਾਧਿ ॥

agam agam tthaakur aagaadh |

that the Lord and Master is inaccessible, unapproachable and unfathomable.

ਗੁਨ ਬੇਅੰਤ ਬੇਅੰਤ ਭਨੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਹਨੁ ਨ ਜਾਈ ਪਰੈ ਪਰਾਤਿ ॥੨॥੨॥੩੫॥

gun beant beant bhan naanak kehan na jaaee parai paraat |2|2|35|

Endless, endless are His Glories, says Nanak; they cannot be described - they are beyond our reach. ||2||2||35||
