Original Translation -
One day a desire arose in my mind
I perfumed myself with sandalwood
I went to meet Brahma in his temple
But my Guru showed me that Brahma within my mind
Where should I go when my house itself is colored
My mind can't walk; it has been crippled
Wherever I go there is water and stones
You are completing everything equally
I have seen and searched Vedas and Puranas
I'd go there if I wouldn't find You here
Where should I go when my house itself is colored
My mind doesn't walk; it has been crippled
I love my Guru
He has removed my delusions
My Guru is my Brahma
His 'shabad' fixes all my deficiencies
