Lord has risen

This humble composition is a belated tribute to Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the embodiment of divine wisdom, courage, and righteousness. The poem seeks to glorify the eternal Lord — a Lord whom Guru Sahib revered as the ultimate sovereign, above all earthly kings and emperors.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Sikh Guru, was not only a spiritual master but also a warrior, poet, and philosopher. He taught humanity the essence of living a life of integrity, humility, and devotion. His teachings remind us that true sovereignty belongs to the Almighty, the "King of kings", whose blessings and protection extend to all who walk the path of truth and righteousness.

As I offer this verse, I am inspired by the Guru’s unwavering faith in the divine. His declaration of “Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh” symbolizes the eternal truth that all glory and victory belong to God alone. Through this poem, I aim to echo that sentiment and reaffirm the timeless message that under the Lord’s aegis, we are forever guided and blessed.

May this poem serve as a reminder of Guru Sahib’s legacy and the light he continues to shine on humanity.

In gratitude and reverence,

For Lord, Thou has risen!

Thee, who art

the Lord of all lords,

the King of all kings,

the Emperor of all emperors. 

And under Thy aegis o Monarch,

we take a seat, and Thee bestows

very many blessings, forever and evermore.

Welfare unto all

Waves of grace, winds of Naam (Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai)

Waves of grace, winds of Naam (Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai)

On the auspicious occasion of Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Gurpurab, this poem emerges as a humble reflection on the timeless wisdom imparted by the first Guru of the Sikhs. Inspired by the profound verse "Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai," which likens the Divine Name to a steadfast ship guiding the soul across the stormy seas of life, this dodoistu adaptation seeks to capture the essence of that divine voyage.

In Guru Nanak's vision, the Name of God is not just a mantra—it is a lifeline, a vessel of grace that carries us through the turbulence of our worldly struggles. The poem follows this theme, celebrating the soul’s journey from uncertainty to enlightenment, reminding us that, despite the trials of life, the Guru's teachings offer unwavering refuge and guidance.

This poem seeks to honor the simplicity and power of Nanak's message: to live a life of humility, devotion, and unity, and to always hold fast to the Name, which serves as the ultimate protector on our spiritual journey.

As we remember Guru Nanak on this sacred day, may His light continue to shine in our hearts and guide us toward the eternal truth.
