Corn-Grain and Rain Shabad

hopi_pink-500x500

When the earth is in distress,

It attunes itself with love

And sends out a prayer.

 

The True One hears it,

And with total ease

Is pleased to give Its strength and steadiness.

 

It sends a command to the Power of Rain,

And the rain pours down in torrents.

 

The wealth of grain and corn grows thick.

A person cannot describe its value.

 

Oh Naanak, appreciate the Divine Identity.

You, Divine One, cause the life-giving food to be given to all the creatures.

 

Eating this, peace grows,

And the cycle of pain

Comes no more.

 

Guru Amar Das ji. Ang 1281 in Siri Guru Granth Sahib ji.
