Panch Parvaan Panch Pardhaan

Panchay Paaveh dargeh maan

Panchay soheh dar raajaan

Panchaa kaa gur ayk dhiaan

Jay ko kahay karai veechaar

Kartay kai karnai naahee sumaar

Dhaaol dharam dayaa kaa poot

Santokh thaap rakhiaa jin soot

Jay ko bujhai hovai sachiaar

Dhavalai upar kaytaa bhaar

Dhartee hor parai hor hor

Tis tay bhaar talai kavan jor

Jeea jaat rangaa kay naav

Sabhanaa likhiaa vuree kalaam

Ayho laykhaa likh jaanai ko-i

Laykhaa likhiaa kaytaa ho-i

Kaytaa taan suaaliho roop

Kaytee daat jaanai kaaon koot

Keeta pasaao ayko kavaao

Tis tay ho-ay lakh dariaao

Kudrat kavan kahaa veechaar

Vaariaa na jaavaa ayk vaar

Jo tudh bhavay saa-ee Bhalee kaar

Too sadaa salaamat nirankaar

The Chosen ones, the self-elect, are accepted and honored.

The Chosen Ones are honored in the court of the lord.

The Chosen ones look beautiful in the courts of kings.

The chosen ones meditate single mindedly upon the Guru.

No matter how much anyone tries to explain and describe them,

The doings of the Creator cannot be listed.

The mythical bull is Dharma, the son of Compassion -

This is what patiently holds the earth in it's place.

One who understands this becomes truthful.

What a great load this puts on the bull!

So many worlds beyond this world, so very many!

What power holds them, and supports their weight?

The names and colors of the various species of beings

were all written by the ever-flowing pen of God.

Who knows how to write this account?

Imagine what a huge scroll it would take!

What power! What fascinating beauty!

And what gifts! Who can know them all?

With one sound, you created the expanse of the universe.

Hundreds of thousands of rivers began to flow.

How can your creative potency be described?

I cannot even once be a sacrifice unto you.

Whatever pleases you is the only good done,

You, the eternal and formless one.

The sixteenth pauree gives knowledge of the structure of the universe.
