RAAG RAAMKALEE, FIFTH MEHL, SECOND HOUSE: 

ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU:The four Vedas proclaim it, but you don’t believe them. The six Shaastras also say one thing. The eighteen Puraanas all speak of the One God. Even so, Yogi, you do not understand this mystery. || 1 ||

The celestial harp plays the incomparable melody, but in your intoxication, you do not hear it, O Yogi. || 1 || Pause ||

In the first age, the Golden Age, the village of truth was inhabited. In the Silver Age of Traytaa Yuga, things began to decline. In the Brass Age of Dwaapur Yuga, half of it was gone. Now, only one leg of Truth remains, and the One Lord is revealed. || 2 ||

The beads are strung upon the one thread. By means of many, various, diverse knots, they are tied, and kept separate on the string. The beads of the mala are lovingly chanted upon in many ways. When the thread is pulled out, the beads come together in one place. || 3 ||

Throughout the four ages, the One Lord made the body His temple. It is a treacherous place, with several windows. Searching and searching, one comes to the Lord’s door. Then, O Nanak, the Yogi attains a home in the Mansion of the Lord’s Presence. || 4 ||
