Khasam Ki Bani - #GuruNanak550

"So God lives in the colors around us," said my 5 year old daughter when she heard this shabad by Guru Nanak. Lyrics and Alternative Translation ਸਿਰੀਰਾਗੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ਘਰੁ ਦੂਜਾ ੨ ॥ सिरीरागु महला १ घरु दूजा २ ॥ Sirīrāg mėhlā 1 gẖar ḏūjā 2.

The celebration of Guru Nanak's 550 birth anniversary continues. Here is a new composition of one of my favorite Shabad's by Guru Nanak - Vadde Mere Sahiba. This is just a concept recording ... the idea is to keep developing this composition ... Feel free to share with your heart, mind, soul, friends and family! ਆਸਾ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ॥ आसा महला १ ॥ Āsā mėhlā 1. Aasaa, First Mehl: ਸੁਣਿ ਵਡਾ ਆਖੈ ਸਭੁ ਕੋਇ ॥ सुणि वडा आखै सभु कोइ ॥ Suṇ vadā ākẖai sabẖ ko▫e. Hearing of His Greatness, everyone calls Him Great. ਕੇਵਡੁ ਵਡਾ ਡੀਠਾ ਹੋਇ ॥ केवडु वडा डीठा होइ ॥ Kevad vadā dīṯẖā ho▫e. But just how Great His Greatness is-this is known only to those who have seen Him. ਕੀਮਤਿ ਪਾਇ ਨ ਕਹਿਆ ਜਾਇ ॥ कीमति पाइ न कहिआ जाइ ॥ Kīmaṯ pā▫e na kahi▫ā jā▫e. His Value cannot be estimated; He cannot be described. ਕਹਣੈ ਵਾਲੇ ਤੇਰੇ ਰਹੇ ਸਮਾਇ ॥੧॥ कहणै वाले तेरे रहे समाइ ॥१॥ Kahṇai vāle ṯere rahe samā▫e. ||1|| Those who describe You, Lord, remain immersed and absorbed in You. ||1|| ਵਡੇ ਮੇਰੇ ਸਾਹਿਬਾ ਗਹਿਰ ਗੰਭ
