Guru Granth Sahib — Chapter 5: Bhagat Bani: Farid

10 verses

Verse 1

Farid, return good for evil, and do not fill your mind with anger. Your body shall not suffer from any disease, and you shall obtain everything.

Verse 2

Farid, the path is muddy and the house of my Beloved is far away. If I go, my blanket will get soaked, but if I stay, my love will break.

Verse 3

Farid, if you are truly wise, do not write black marks against anyone else. Look underneath your own collar, and bow your head.

Verse 4

Farid, do not slander the dust beneath your feet — there is nothing as humble as dust. While alive, it lies beneath your feet; when you die, it cover…

Verse 5

Says the beloved Farid: I search for You evening and morning. I cannot be seen, for You dwell within — the Beloved is within your own self.
