Guru Nanak – The words that guide



Reason to create
The world in believe,
How intense the joy
Of being part of reality.

This world is designed
Dressed in shine
Decorated with reason
Enriched with vision.

Undoubtedly there is creation
So no doubts be entertained
About the presence of creator
World- A supreme theater.

Even a glimpse of Divine
Can create great refine
In the thought and believe
In the acts and dreams.

Thus there were saints
Who from evil refrained
There pure self in life’s game
Was evident in their plays.

Many holy saints
Who chanted Divine’s name
To gain peace and place
In the Divine’s grace.

Holiness revealed in several forms
Many a ways to know Him were formed
Religion by several names was known
There was presence of many in single home.

Respect we do the presence of each
The religion, the man,
The vision, the believe
And the creator supreme.

There is no doubt that every drop
In the ocean of life
Holds the power to silent
The quest to survive.

Every religion is rich
Each holy path great
Every vision is supreme
Each nobility a heavenly gain.

I would never attempt
To write as partial
Nor will ever mention
Comparison in religion.

My only objective
Is to bring to notice
The works of one such platform
Where Nanak as guru created miracles.

Miracles on the ground of humanity
And on the land of Divinity,
He preached essence of creativity
That God bestowed in entirety.

Praise for Lord was his mission
And he worked on it for life
He created yet another platform
Of praise and purity.

Impressed by his words
His teachings and work
Realizing his efforts
To reform again the creation

I attempt to write
With all that I can gather
The most refined of words
The richest I ever heard.

An institution of refinement
That acknowledges Divine
For every inch of support
Was bestowed by His shine.

In His light
And by His support
Says Nanak I design
Holiness again.

Guru Nanak desires worship
Of His lotus feet
Where dwells his pure mind
Far from worldly misfit.

Guru Nanak believes in praise
Steps to realize believe
Reason to nurture
The goodness in all deeds.

He never stops a man
From being a part of world,
He always emphasizes
In being right in deed and thought.

There is reason in his preaching
Good ones are the need of world
And if the earth loses the best
To the remoteness of jungles,

The righteousness will begin to loose
The goodness in human form will be rare
And they who meet material eyes
Will be the hearts unfair.

Guru Nanak therefore practiced
The institution of marriage as well
How rare are the saints
Who refrain from world,

When actually being there.
He was a man of rhyme
His writings poetry has defined
And each one of his words,

Teach preciousness of truth
The need to praise Lords
The reason to be right
The vision to realize.

Guru Nanak believed in service
And service to one and all
The desire to share meals
With the ones in need.

Guru Nanak was a philosopher
And a poet too,
He was a humanist
And a saint too.

Guru Nanak was a reformer
A singer too,
He was a researcher
A realistic too.

I will continue my work
On his writings supreme
I too wish to add a drop
In the ocean of his spread believes.

Many like me should attempt
To bring to the world the work
Guru Nanak the saint
Be realized by the world.
