Gurudwara Govind Pura Sahib
|
Gurdwara Gobind Pura Sahib is located on Jain College Road, near Novelty Cinema, Ambala City. Labbu ka Talaab is also nearby.
Gurdwara Gobind Pura Sahib is associated with Guru Gobind Singh Ji. When the Guru made sparrows fight and then kill Pir Amir Din’s hawk, the hawk fell at this place. Guruji visited this place then and uttered his famous words:
Chirion se main baaz turaun, Tabe Gobind Singh naam kahaun
Gidderon se main sher banaun, Tabe Gobind Singh naam kahaun
Nichon se main ucch banaun, Tabe Gobind Singh naam kahaun
Sawa lakh se ek laraun, Tabe Gobind Singh naam kahaun.
(It is when I make sparrows fight hawks that I am called Gobind Singh
It is when make I lions out of wolves that I am called Gobind Singh
It is when I make the lowly rise that I am called Gobind Singh
It is when I make one fight a hundred thousand that I am called Gobind Singh)
Pir Sayyid Shah, another Muslim cleric, witnessed the miracle and sought from the young Guru the favor of a spring of sweet water, as the wells in the area were brackish. Guru Gobind Singh Ji sanctified the water of a well that is still present in the Gurdwara and ordained that whoever would bathe there would achieve salvation.
