There Is No End

There is no end to his qualities,
no end to the ways of describing them –
no end to his works, no end to his gifts.
There seems to be no end
to what he sees and hears,
and no one knows the scope of his will.
No end appears to his created worlds –
neither is this side visible nor the far end.
Many strive hard to know his limit,
but no one has found it –
indeed, no one knows the limit.
The more we try to describe it,
the more it eludes description.
Mighty is the Lord, high is his abode;
higher and higher still is his Name.
Only on becoming as high as he
can one know that exalted Being.
How great he is!
He alone knows himself, O Nanak,
all gifts come through his merciful glance.
