Glowing countenance, book, staff, mat in hand Blue attired, wooden slippered, braving the sand

Accompanied by disciple Mardana, the great Rababi Set forth Baba Nanak to Mecca dressed as a Hajji

Mecca the land of Kabah stood imploring the devotees

Reaching the city, Baba Nanak rested after daily duties

Amazed locals cursed the visitor thus slumbered Feet pointing towards Kabah! He has blundered

The Kazi thus angered, arrived fretting and fuming Kafir your feet point towards the place of praying

Baba Nanak smiled and said politely, “O my brother, Move my feet to a place where is no God but other”.

Show me a house or an abode bereft of His being Show me a soul or an object out of His blessing

Lead me to a place where He is not to be found For I see and feel Him in every nook, corner around

On the feet of the great Guru, the Kazi fell Please guide me, as only truth is what you tell

You showed me the path, the right place of God Indebted I remain to you whole life, my lord

Glory of Nanak spread in Mecca and beyond Devotees came forward for his blessings abound

“Hindu greater or a Muslim”, from hint People inquired “Without noble deeds both will suffer” Nanak inspired.
