Pauree:
O Lord, You are inside and outside as well. You are the Knower of secrets.
Whatever anyone does, the Lord knows. O my mind, think of the Lord.
The one who commits sins lives in fear, while the one who lives righteously rejoices.
O Lord, You Yourself are True, and True is Your Justice. Why should anyone be afraid?
O Nanak, those who recognize the True Lord are blended with the True One. ||5||
The basis of this Raag is steeped in the traditions of mainstream Indian Classical music. Siri Raag is serious and thought provoking in its nature and creates an atmosphere where the listener is led to heed the advice given therein. The listener (the mind) is made aware of the truth of the message and with this ‘education’ is given the strength to face the future with both humility and the ‘gained’ knowledge.
