74 GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II<br />

o loving <strong>Guru</strong>, 0 loving <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>, 0 loving <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong><br />

My heart is trembling, my entire life is spent, is near ending<br />

Before these eyes close forever, bless your glimpse.<br />

Blessyour glimpse.<br />

At a distance, under the trees, a few security guards were patrolling for<br />

the security of the king. Now a fresh batch came to replace them. The earlier<br />

ones went to their homes.<br />

Meanwhile, Mehta Kalu reached. Rai made him sit with respect and in a<br />

longing tone said: 0 Mehta, tell me any news, whether the sun ofthe world is<br />

going to hrive a glimpse to this hard-hearted earth or not?<br />

Mehta: 0 respected Rai, what should I tell? There is no news. I am<br />

getting restless. My entire life is spent. We got one son after a long desire, and<br />

he has left the family and is in travels. A couple oftimes there was a tiding that<br />

he is <strong>com</strong>ing but nothing definite is known. We don't even have any inkling as<br />

to where he has gone. When he went, he said: I have to travel to nearby<br />

places. We do not understand what is he doing after undergoing so much<br />

hardships of travelling? We have now got into old age and he is also of good<br />

age now but still he is travelling and travelling. His mother is always in wishful<br />

o Mehta Kalu, even I have a lonhring for his glimpse but I cannot assert a<br />

right on him. I cannot be proud that he is related to me. I have no strength to<br />

say that he is from my caste or <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />

Yes, I am dependent only on one thing, his mercy. I am old now. Death is<br />

near. I wish to have his glimpse. But if his wish is otherwise, then I have no<br />

authority, I should remain in his love and longing. Saying this, he had tears in<br />

his eyes and he said:<br />

o <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong><br />

Give me your love<br />

Fill my heart with your love<br />

Without you I am nobody<br />

o Mehta, What can I make him understand? Mytrying to make him<br />

understand is lighting candles in bright sun.<br />

In me, is the devil named ego, that does not let me see his real self. When<br />

the godly souls <strong>com</strong>e to the earth, then the veil of ego, the darkness of<br />
