Sri Guru Granth Sahib
 If I dressed myself in fire, and built my house of snow, and made iron my food; and if I were to drink in all pain like water, and drive the entire earth before me. |
| If I had a palace made of pearls, inlaid with jewels, scented with musk, saffron and sandalwood, a sheer delight to behold - seeing this, I might go astray and forget You, and Your Name would not enter into my mind. |
| If I wander around forgetting God's Name, I shall continue coming and going in reincarnation, over and over again. |
| If I was a bird, soaring and flying through hundreds of heavens, and if I was invisible, neither eating nor drinking anything - even so, I could not estimate Your Value. |
| If I was slashed and cut into pieces, over and over again, and put into the mill and ground into flour, burnt by fire and mixed with ashes - even then, I could not estimate Your Value. How can I describe the Greatness of Your Name? |
| If I were to become a fish, living in the water, I would still remember the Lord, who watches over all beings and creatures. |
| If I were to become an emperor and raise a huge army, and sit on a throne, issuing commands and collecting taxes - O Nanak, all of this could pass away like a puff of wind. Seeing these, I might go astray and forget You, and Your Name would not enter into my mind. |
| If I were to place the earth upon a scale and balance it with a single copper coin; and if I were to become so great that I could not be contained, and if I were to control and lead all; and if I were to possess so much power within my mind that I could cause others to do my bidding - so what? |
| If it pleases You, then I speak the Truth. If it pleases You, then the True Guru showers His Mercy upon me. |
| If my body were afflicted with pain, under the evil influence of unlucky stars; and if the blood-sucking kings were to hold power over me - even if this were my condition, I would still worship and adore You, and my longing to chant Your Praises would not decrease. |
| If my body were cut in half, if a saw was put to my head, and if my body were frozen in the Himalayas - even then, my mind would not be free of disease. None of these are equal to the Name of the Lord. I have seen and tried and tested them all. |
| If Nanak could be the dust of their feet, then he, the ignorant one, might also obtain some. Who is our mother, and who is our father? Where did we come from? We are formed from the fire of the womb within, and the bubble of water of the sperm. For what purpose are we created? |
| If one finds a True Guru, the Lord is met with intuitive ease. |
| If one's clothes are stained with blood, the garment becomes polluted. |
| If only He would show His Mercy, and unite me with Himself! |
