Tum Meri Raakho Laaj Hari - Surdas Ji - RSSB Shabad

These shabads are hymns or spiritual poems written by saints and mystics from different spiritual traditions of the Indian subcontinent. The shabads convey a deep message of truth and are sung with heartfelt devotion. They express the intense longing of the soul for union with the Lord. These songs of devotion are prayers that inspire the true seeker to turn inwards to contact the ultimate Truth – the inner divine music that reverberates within every being.

English Translation:
Please uphold my honour, O Lord!
O knower of all hearts, you understand everything –
I have not practised any devotion.
None of the vices can I relinquish;
every moment I indulge in them.
I’ve gathered all my deceits and frauds –
I carry the bundle on my head.
So strong are my attachments to wife, son and wealth
they have rendered me completely indiscriminate.
Prays Surdas: now my boat is overloaded with misdeeds –
O Lord, deliver this fallen one quickly.

This shabad is published by Radha Soami Satsang Beas.
