Sorath Mahala - 5th (Maya Moh Magan Andhiyare )
The foolish self-willed person has forgotten the Lordbenefactor, being engrossed in the love of the worldly falsehood and the darkness of ignorance. Such a person takes the credit for all his upbringing due to his strength while forsaking the Lord-Creator who has bestowed this life and strength on him. (1)
O, foolish mind! The True Master is watching all your actions (doings) and is in the know of all those acts committed by you in hiding, as nothing is hidden from the omniscient Lord. (Pause) This foolish man is engrossed in the love of worldly pleasures, greed, and egoism, which has given birth to many vices and sinful actions. O, fool! You have suffered through many forms of life in the cycle of births and deaths, being bound in the chains of worldly bondage. (2)
O, Man! Whatever sinful actions you have committed in the company of another person's wife, under closed doors and in great hiding, (secrecy) are known to the Lord. When the assistants, Chitra & Gupt, of the god of justice, would ask you to account for your actions, then who will cover up Your sins? (3)
O, perfect Lord-benefactor, destroyer of our sufferings! I have no other support except You. O, Nanak! May the Lord enable me to cross this ocean of life successfully, as I have sought His support only. (4-15-26)
