My pain is forgotten, and I have found peace deep within myself. ||1||
64. ||1||Pause||

Bilaaval, The Word Of Devotee Ravi Daas: One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru: Seeing my poverty, everyone laughed. Such was my condition. Now, I hold the eighteen miraculous spiritual powers in the palm of my hand; everything is by Your Grace. ||1||
64. ||1||Pause||  
You know, and I am nothing, O Lord, Destroyer of fear. All beings seek Your Sanctuary, O God, Fulfiller, Resolver of our affairs. ||1||Pause||
64. ||2||  
Whoever enters Your Sanctuary, is relieved of his burden of sin. You have saved the high and the low from the shameless world. ||2||
64. ||3||1||  
Says Ravi Daas, what more can be said about the Unspoken Speech? Whatever You are, You are, O Lord; how can anything compare with Your Praises? ||3||1||

BILAAVAL: That family, into which a holy person is born, whether of high or low social class, whether rich or poor, shall have its pure fragrance spread all over the world. ||1||Pause||
64. ||1||  
Whether he is a Brahmin, a Vaishya, a Soodra, or a Kh'shaatriya; whether he is a poet, an outcaste, or a filthy-minded person, he becomes pure, by meditating on the Lord God. He saves himself, and the families of both his parents. ||1||
64. ||2||  
Blessed is that village, and blessed is the place of his birth; blessed is his pure family, throughout all the worlds. One who drinks in the sublime essence abandons other tastes; intoxicated with this divine essence, he discards sin and corruption. ||2||

The Word Of Sadhana, Raag Bilaaval: One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru: For a king's daughter, a man disguised himself as Vishnu. He did it for sexual exploitation, and for selfish motives, but the Lord protected his honor. ||1||
64. ||1||Pause||  
What is Your value, O Guru of the world, if You will not erase the karma of my past actions? Why seek safety from a lion, if one is to be eaten by a jackal? ||1||Pause||
64. ||2||  
For the sake of a single rain-drop, the rainbird suffers in pain. When its breath of life is gone, even an ocean is of no use to it. ||2||
64. ||3||  
Now, my life has grown weary, and I shall not last much longer; how can I be patient? If I drown and die, and then a boat comes along, tell me, how shall I climb aboard? ||3||
64. ||4||1||   
I am nothing, I have nothing, and nothing belongs to me. Now, protect my honor; Sadhana is Your humble servant. ||4||1||
