Perfect in all his qualities, the Peer himself proceeded, and entered the forest.

The Peer went into the forest and sauntered there. The Lord had a holy book in his hands.

When the teachings that came from the words of the Peer's mouth were heard, the birds in the forest were all fascinated.

Her hunters searched, but could catch no deer. There appeared to be some reason for this.

ejee van maa(n)he puras mone acharat deetthee,

In the forest her man Monu beheld a wonder in silence. All the wild beasts and birds were bowing their heads.

ejee mone shikaaree man maa(n)he vaat veechaaree,

Monu the hunter thought to himself: 'This person appears to be some being full of miraculous powers.

ejee nur sat-gur paaraadhee bolaaveeaa,

Nur Satgur summoned the hunter.'Have you accomplished your task, then?'

ejee sees namaaveene shikaaree boleaa,

Bowing his head, the hunter said: 'This person is some being full of miraculous powers.

Nur Satgur explained this to all:'Give me a seer of game, o deer.'

ejee pa(n)khee saavaj ne saan kevee aavee chhe,

What enlightenment filled the birds and the beasts!'Take this flesh, o Lord.'

ejee jaa(n)g kaapeene aaleeo umede,

He cut its haunch and gave it in good faith. They met the True Guide face to face in joy.

ejee maa(n)s laeene monu turat sadhaareaa,
aaveaa te kaan gaddh ne parole re..............................18

Taking the flesh, Monu immediately departed, and came to the fortress on the borders of the forest.

ejee raannee paalann de daasee mokalaavee,

Queen Palan De sent her maid. 'Fetch the meat, o maid!'

ejee maas raa(n)dheene raannee-e haathe su(n) chaakheeaa,
