Deen Dayaal Bharose Tere
I grew up listening to this shabad composed by Bhai Gopal Singh. The shabad emphasizes the importance of meditation on the divine entity "Raam." The shabad implores the singer/seeker to meditate like Dhroo and Prahlaad. Dhruv and Prahlad both completely trusted Hari as they meditated. Because of their trust they were both emancipated. The shabad reminds us that oneness guides our path and liberates the soul. The singer attains enlightenment and breaks free from the cycle of reincarnation. This ultimate Giver, is takes care of us here in this world, and the world beyond.
Simple Translation - Deen Dayaal Bharose Tere
Meditate, my soul, upon "Raam"
Just Like Dhroo and Prahlaad meditated on Hari. ||1||
O Merciful Lord, you have my complete trust
Along with me, my family is saved ||1||Pause||
When He wills, He guides our path
He guides this vessel, sets our spirits free. ||2||
Through Guru's Grace I am enlightened
I am free from reincarnation's cycle. ||3||
Kabeer implores, remember Sarangpani
In this world and beyond, He's the ultimate Giver. ||4||2||10||61||
