The album "Gur Poorey Meri Raakh Laye" comprises of 5 tracks (shabads) sung by Late Bhai Ajmer Singh Chandan. Bhai Ajmer Singh Chandan was the father of Indian Pop Icon Daler Mehndi and the Bollywood Sensation Mika Singh.

The title shabad "Gur Poorey Meri Raakh Laye" is a gratitude prayer to the teacher who in itself is complete in totality. The second shabad "Bhai Re Is Man Ko Samajhaye" is about the Art of Living when the Guru teaches you the power of taming of the mind. The third shabad "Daya Karo Thakur Parbh Mere" is a plead requesting the Almighty to please help understand the deeper meaning of life. The fourth shabad "Sagal Bhavan Ke Nayeka" is a shout out to the Lord - the King of Kings to show the yearning seekers a "Glance". The last shabad "Teri Kudrat Tuhen Janne" is about the Super Powerful Lord who is the creator of all, alone knows the purpose of creating everything.
