Gurbani is a divine work of our Gurus. Guru Arjan Dev ji, in small age of 40s, wrote not only some 40% of SGGS, but also arranged the works of previous 4 Gurus, arranged them according to Ragas.
Unfortunate that English translation has completely ruined the context and intent of Gurus. In the translation in your article, "Lord" is the meaning of "Ram", "Prabhu", "Hari", and "Hare". "Supreme Lord" is the meaning of "Parbrahm", and "Yam" has been translated "Messanger of Death". Surprisingly, "Guru" has been translated as "Guru" only.
I hope, someday, in our life times, we can see accurate translation of SGGS, so that we all can see what our Gurus wanted us to understand, and what our scholars are feeding us.
Playing with Gurus' words is possibly the reason why our Panth is declining.
……..this article is a divine Prasad..!!
