about

I've always loved this Shabad.
For whatever reason, it is very calming, soothing, regenerative.
It is like a healing water from the soul of life.
That compassionate embrace that welcomes you back again and again to be renewed, held and restored.

A special thank you to Harman Singh who played beautiful Dilruba on this track way back in 2015. Your heart and devotion is always so calming and inspiring, thank you brother.


It is written by Guru Arjan Dev Ji and you can find the full Gurmukhi and translation here: www.igurbani.com/shabad/t9nm?verse=o2b7

lyrics

naam niranjan neer naraa-in.
rasnaa simrat paap bilaa-in. ||1||
rahaa-o.
naaraa-in sabh maahi nivaas.
naaraa-in ghat ghat pargaas.
naaraa-in kahtay narak na jaahi.
naaraa-in sayv sagal fal paahi. ||1||

naaraa-in man maahi aDhaar.
naaraa-in bohith sansaar.
naaraa-in kahat jam bhaag palaa-in.
naaraa-in dant bhaanay daa-in. ||2||

naaraa-in sad sad bakhsind.
naaraa-in keenay sookh anand.
naaraa-in pargat keeno partaap.
naaraa-in sant ko maa-ee baap. ||3||

naaraa-in saaDhsang naraa-in.
baaraN baar naraa-in gaa-in.
basat agochar gur mil lahee.
naaraa-in ot naanak daas gahee.



Translation:
The Name of the Immaculate Lord is the Ambrosial Water.
Chanting it with the tongue, sins are washed away.
||1||Pause||

The Lord abides in everyone.
The Lord illumines each and every heart.
Chanting the Lord’s Name, one does not fall into hell.
Serving the Lord, all fruitful rewards are obtained. ||1||

Within my mind is the Support of the Lord.
The Lord is the boat to cross over the world-ocean.
Chant the Lord’s Name, and the Messenger of Death will run away.
The Lord breaks the teeth of Maya, the witch. ||2||

The Lord is forever and ever the Forgiver.
The Lord blesses us with peace and bliss.
The Lord has revealed His glory.
The Lord is the mother and father of His Saint. ||3||

The Lord, the Lord, is in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.
Time and time again, I sing the Lord’s Praises.
Meeting with the Guru, I have attained the
incomprehensible object.

Slave Nanak has grasped the Support of the Lord. ||4||17||19||.

Bachan Mexico

The sound of Bachan Kaur’s voice can make you forget what you’re doing and remember who you are.

Mysticism infuses her sound with kaleidoscopic luminescence.
Sparse dreamy electronica, organic earthy acoustics, soul stirring poetics, and the occasional boom and clack.

Mother earth and the human heart are the bread and butter of this artist’s intention and you can taste it in every song. ... more
