Guru Gobind Singh had written this Dohra at Hazoor Sahib. He wrote this Dohra after giving Gur Gaddi to Guru Granth Sahib and original text is at Hazoor Sahib and this is being read over there since 10th Guru's time.

This Dohra is also written in Giani Gian Singh's book and perhaps also in Biaji Mkut Sakhi 10.

The Dohra also appears in few REHITNAMAS.

A Rehitnama is a HukamM, Order, of the Guru which has been SCRIBED DOWN by the BELOVED SIKHS close to the Gurus at the time. Just as a Judge announces a judgement but the the Recorder or Secretary records the judgement on paper, similarly Rehitnamas are the judgements and instructions of Guru Sahib which have been scribed and recorded by the GurSikh companions of Guru Sahib at the time.

First part of the Dohra

The first part of the Dohra is Guru Gobind Singh Ji's Pavitar Bachan (Holy Saying) recorded in BHAI PRAHLAAD SINGH's Rehitnama and also written later on in the late 1800s in Giani Gian Singh's "Twarikh Guru Khalsa" and "Panth Parkash":

  • Agya Bhai Akal Ki Tabe Chalyo Panth
  • As was ordained by the Timeless, thus was established the Panth.
  • Sabh Sikhan Ko Hukam Hai Guru Manyo Granth
  • To all Sikhs, let this be the order, recognize the Granth as your Guru.
  • Guru Granth Ji Manyo Prakat Guran Ki Deh
  • The reverend Guru Granth is the visible body of the gurus
  • Jo Prabh Ko Milbo Chahe Khoj Sabad Mein Leh
  • Those that seek to meet with Vaaheguru, delve into the Shabad

Second part of the Dohra

The second part of the Dohra is Guru Gobind Singh Jee's Pavitar Bachan (Holy Saying) recorded in Bhai Nand Lal's Tankhahnama.

"The Sikh people shall remain free and sovereign, always, non-challenging this position. For, all shall realize, after bitter frustration, that there is no redemption except in the way of the life that the Khalsa upholds!"

There are some minor differences in some words in the various sources which have recorded Guru Gobind Singh jee's bachan used in the Dohraa which we sing, due to the language and writing style of the scriber. However, the ESSENCE and MESSAGE is all the SAME.

Full Dohra

*Agya Bhai Akal Ki Tabe Chalyo Panth

  • Sabh Sikhan Ko Hukam Hai Guru Manyo Granth
  • Guru Granth Ji Manyo Prakat Guran Ki Deh
  • Jo Prabh Ko Milbo Chahe Khoj Sabad Mein Leh(in nanaksar it is Jaka *Hirda Shudh Hai khoj Sabad Mein leh)
  • Wahiguru NaM Jahaj Hai Chare So utree Par
  • Jo Sarda Kar Sevnde Guru Par Utaran Har.
  • Raj Karega Khalsa Aki Rahe na Koye
  • Khuar Hoye Sab Milenge
  • Bache Saran Jo hoye.
  • Khand Jake Hath Hai
  • Kalge Sohe Sis
  • So Hamri (Sabhki in next repetation) Raksha Karen
  • Kalgidhar Jagdeesh

in Delhi Sikhs use other fors lines and not Khanda Jake Hath ie

*Thikar Phor Dilees Sir

  • Prabh Pur Kiya Payan
  • Tegh Bahdur Si Kiriya
  • Kari Nan Kinhu Aan.

in Bhai Prahlad Singh's Rehitnama

Bhai Prahlad Singh was a Sikh from Guru Gobind Singh ji's time and the Dohra he wrote was:

*Agya Bhai Akal Ki Tabe Chalyo Panth

  • Sabh Sikhan Ko Hukam Hai Guru Manyo Granth
  • Guru Khalsa Manyo Prakat Guran Ki Deh
  • Jo Prabh Ko Milbo Chahe Khoj Sabad Mein Leh.

Please note that Bhai Prahlad Singh wrote that Guru Granth Sahib is the Guru, but the Deh (body) of the Guru is the Khalsa. (As Guru Gobind Singh themselves said that 5 Khalsa's - Panj Pyare are equal to the Guru)

It was only in the later rehitnamas ( infact during the late 1700s when the khalsa did not have the control over the Gurdwaras) that we find the line as Guru Granth ji maneyo pragat guran ki deh ... One of the cause of this is understood by researchers is that many shradhaloo hindus & pandits were serving the gurudwaras and they ( conciously or uncociously ) brought in the hindu Idol worship into Simple sikhi. Because if you start concidering Gurusahibs shabad saroop as a body :"DEH" then we will start putting bhog of food , ac rooms , rajaiyan over guru sahib etc etc.....I just hope we just dont start giving Ishnann to guru sahib one day !

Last part of Dohra

The last part of Dohra

Raj Karega Khalsa, Aki Rahe Na Koe, Khuar Hue Sabh Milenge, Bache Saran Jo Hoe

is also recorded at the end of Bhai Nand Lal Singh's Rehitnama.
