Satgur Bhetiya Kem Jaañiye - Taufiq Karmali

How is one to know that one has met the Satgur? Look into the heart and see, see how the neem tree gives off the scent of sandalwood.. ..1 In that wood lives our Beloved; the wood that gives out the scent of sandalwood Come, O Maiden! Let's go to that wood, that there be joy in our hearts.. ..2 In the mind/heart (man) are the divisions “You” and “I”; leave these thoughts behind! The mere curtains separates "You" and “I” if you forget this, you are the fool! ..3 "You" and "I" are bonded in Love; "You" and "I" speak words to each other. "You" and "I" are both One with the Lord; O Brother, dispel this curtain! ..4 "You” and “I" should not be arrogant, for pride destroys all; If "You" and "I" killed our pride, we would attain our heart’s desire.. ..5 "You" and "I" passed the night together*, do not forget that dear sir! "You" and "I" bathed in the moonlight; so bring a mind (man) filled with affection.. ..6 “You” and “I” and crossed the oceans even as the waves rose up high above us; “You" and "I” crossed the river, and Satgur Sohodev showered us with Nur.. ..7 The Satgur’s Light is concealed within; recognise God within the Guru; What will you give to satisfy the Guru and what should be your service? ..8 If you serve Him with sincere mind, indeed, no gift is necessary; Give the mind and heart full of love, and let the love greatly increase! ..9 When the heart is given, all is given. Stay awake night and day, O my Brother! Pir Shams said: Go join the ranks of the thirty-three crore deities! ..10 *That is, endured fear, hardship, and danger together.
