Malhar is a calming and soothing raag, meditating in this raag brings peace and tranquility. When the dear Lord grants His Grace, then the blessings of rain falls on all the people of the world.
From this rain, all creatures find the ways and means to live, and the earth is embellished.
Nanak say, this world is all water and from the water everything has sprung. By the Guru’s grace, some rare one realises the Lord, such a man is ever liberated.
Now, I am on intimate terms with my love. Contemplating on my Lord, the King, I have attained peace, O blissful clouds, burst forth all the blessings. Even for an instant, I forget not my Lord, the ocean of peace. Through the Naam, I have obtained all the treasures. Meeting the blessed saints, my perfect destiny has awakened. Embracing the affection for the Supreme Lord, peace has welled up and all sorrows have vanished. Meditating on the Lord’s feet, Nanak has crossed the difficult and dreadful ocean of this world.
I hear the beauteous celestial music. When twilight has dawned I see the face of my beloved and my home is filled with pleasure and peace. With all my means I have made an effort and have abandoned all care and fear. Relaying upon the Lord, I have commenced all my life’s affairs. I have cleansed my mind’s abode and I ask the saints about my Lord. Seeking and searching I have met my groom and bowing at His feet, I devote myself to His devotion. When my spouse Lord comes to rest in my mind I sing in ecstasy. My friends and intimates were comforted too when Guru made me meet my Perfect Lord. My companions and mates are in bliss as my Guru has accomplished my tasks. Says Nanak, I have met with my spouse Lord, the giver of peace and I am not leaving Him ever.
O dear sublime clouds, burst forth, make not even a moment’s delay. O my beloved, the support of my soul, you bring lasting bliss and joy to my mind. I depend on your support, O my Lord and Master, how could You forget me? I, thy beauteous bride, am like a hand-maiden of thine. Without thee, O my groom Lord, I look not glorious. When my Lord listens to my prayer, He hurries to shower me with His Mercy. Says Nanak, I have obtained my groom Lord and am blessed with honour, glory and sublime way of life.
O my friend, the rain showers down from the clouds and my beloved guest has arrived in my abode. I am meek and my Lord is the Ocean of Mercy. Absorb me into the treasures of Naam of the Lord. O brother, What are you so worried about? What are you thinking? What have you tried? One whose succourer is the world-sustainer, what he has to worry about ? I have prepared all sorts of foods in various ways, and all sorts of sweet deserts. I have made my kitchen pure and sacred. Now, O my sovereign Lord King, please sample my food. When the Lord himself resides in my mansion all the vices are destroyed and everyone is delighted. When my playful Beloved came into my household, I found total peace and contentment. In the society of the Saints, I am destined to have the support and protection of the perfect Guru. Nanak has found his playful husband Lord and shall never suffer in sorrow again.
