Battle of Amritsar
£125.00 – £525.00
Although Baba Deep Singh Ji was seventy-five years old, he still had the strength of a young warrior. He gathered a large group of Sikhs and advanced towards Sir Harimander Sahib. By the time they reached the village of Tern Taran, about ten miles from Amritsar, their numbers had risen to about five thousand. At this time, Baba Ji drew a line on the ground with his khanda and asked, only those who were willing to fight and die to cross the line.
All of the Sikhs there crossed the line eagerly. Baba Deep Singh Ji then recited the shabad: “Jo to praym khaylan ka chaao, sir dhar talee galee mayree aao.” (Those who wish to play the game of love (follow Sikhism), come to me with your head in your palm.) “It maarag pair dhareejai, sir deejai kaan na keejai.” (If you wish your feet to travel this path, don’t delay in accepting to give your head.)
When news of Baba Deep Singh Ji’s intentions reached Jahan Khan, he immediately mobilized an army of 20,000 men and proceeded towards Tern Taran. Baba Deep Singh Ji’s army intercepted Jahan Khan’s forces near the village of Goharwal, about five miles from Amritsar. At this point, there was a clash between both sides.
Baba Deep Singh Ji fought with his 18-ser khanda (weighing about 32 lbs.). Each Sikh fought with such great valour and courage that the enemy was almost defeated. Baba Deep Singh Ji was able to continue fighting and reached Sir Harimander Sahib with is head separated from his body. He bowed his head at the prikarma (rectangular walkway) of Sir Harimander Sahib and lay there as a martyr.
Baba Deep Singh Ji’s shaheedi incited the Sikhs to continue to fight against Mogul oppression for many years. Even today, his life serves as an example for all Sikhs on how to live and die with dignity.
