GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II
VI
It was nearly noon. The sun was at the top. The disciples sitting outside the
tomb were waiting: Oh! What is going to happen? Will the meditation break
or will the saint who has vowed to break the meditation lose and go away?
On the other side, people were anxiously waiting with hands on their
hearts, to see whether the city is saved or goes under the curse of the saint.
All hearts were throbbing. Everybody's ears were waiting for the gong
bell to strike twelve.
It became exactly noon. The timekeeper gave the first blow to the gong.
The sound of the second blow on the gong had not yet come that a
thundering sound came from the tomb where the saint was fasting and
meditating. The bricks fell down from the centre of the roof and that made a
gash in the roof. Now, the rays of the sun went inside the tomb. The sound of
the thunder and the rays of the sun opened the eyes ofthe saint. His meditation
broke. The saint opened his eyes. His concentration on the curse was gone
and his attention was drawn towards the gash. His body trembled, fearingthat
the entire roof may not fall on his head. This fear made him act quickly and
he opened the door and came out in dreadfulness
Outside the tomb his disciples were standing dazed. At a little distance
,people ofthe city stood and watched in curiosity.
A voice came from thousands ofthroats,
A chorus came from thousands ofthroats,
In wonder, amazement and delight,
In success, thanksgiving and sweetness,
Great Guru Nanak Dev
Great Guru N anak Dev
Great Guru Nanak Dev
The voice Great Guru Nanak Dev echoed and went into the saint's ears.
The name Guru Nanak he had already heard. His praise, from saints and
sadhus, he had already heard. From his mentor, he had known that a prophet
is born and his name is Nanak. His associates had talked about him that he
did not accept any money from king Ibrahim Lodhi as also from Malik Bhago
and is travelling dyed in the love of the Lord. Either, the same prophet has
come who is miraculous and whom the peeple are praising as Great Guru
Nanak Devor the entire city population has come under his refuge. It is only
sometimes that the forests blossom. It is only sometimes that a deer with musk
is born. Similarly, this time, a prophet is born on whose head the Lord has his
hand. They say: Guru Nanak is immersed in the love of the Lord.
