Malaar, The Word Of The Devotee Ravi Daas Jee:

1293 : 1603
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1293 : 1604
O humble townspeople, I am obviously just a shoemaker.

1293 : 1605
In my heart I cherish the Glories of the Lord, the Lord of the Universe. ||1||Pause||

1293 : 1606
Even if wine is made from the water of the Ganges, O Saints, do not drink it.

1293 : 1607
This wine, and any other polluted water which mixes with the Ganges, is not separate from it. ||1||

1293 : 1608
The palmyra palm tree is considered impure, and so its leaves are considered impure as well.

1293 : 1609
But if devotional prayers are written on paper made from its leaves, then people bow in reverence and worship before it. ||2||

1293 : 1610
It is my occupation to prepare and cut leather; each day, I carry the carcasses out of the city.

1293 : 1611
Now, the important Brahmins of the city bow down before me; Ravi Daas, Your slave, seeks the Sanctuary of Your Name. ||3||1||

1293 : 1612
MALAAR:

1293 : 1613
Those humble beings who meditate on the Lord's Lotus Feet - none are equal to them.

1293 : 1614
The Lord is One, but He is diffused in many forms. Bring in, bring in, that All-pervading Lord. ||Pause||

1293 : 1615
He who writes the Praises of the Lord God, and sees nothing else at all, is a low-class, untouchable fabric-dyer by trade.

1293 : 1616
The Glory of the Name is seen in the writings of Vyaas and Sanak, throughout the seven continents. ||1||

1293 : 1617
And he whose family used to kill cows at the festivals of Eed and Bakareed, who worshipped Shayks, martyrs and spiritual teachers,

1293 : 1618
whose father used to do such things - his son Kabeer became so successful that he is now famous throughout the three worlds. ||2||

1293 : 1619
And all the leather-workers in those families still go around Benares removing the dead cattle

1293 : 1620
- the ritualistic Brahmins bow in reverence before their son Ravi Daas, the slave of the Lord's slaves. ||3||2||

1293 : 1621
Malaar:

1293 : 1622
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1293 : 1623
What sort of devotional worship will lead me to meet my Beloved, the Lord of my breath of life?

1293 : 1624
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I have obtained the supreme status. ||Pause||

1293 : 1625
How long shall I wash these dirty clothes?

1293 : 1626
How long shall I remain asleep? ||1||

1293 : 1627
Whatever I was attached to, has perished.

1293 : 1628
The shop of false merchandise has closed down. ||2||

1293 : 1629
Says Ravi Daas, when the account is called for and given,

1293 : 1630
whatever the mortal has done, he shall see. ||3||1||3||
