O Nanak, when the Great Giver gives, nothing at all is lacking. |
O Nanak, when the Guru makes one perfect, one's weight does not decrease. |
O Nanak, without the Guru, there is no honor; without honor, no one is carried across. |
O Nanak, without the Name, everything is painful, and happiness is forgotten. |
O Nanak, without the True Name, all this paraphernalia shall disappear. |
O Nanak, you shall meet the True Guru, if your mind remains in His Presence. |
O Saints, O Siblings of Destiny, listen, release comes only through the True Name. Worship the Feet of the Guru. Let the Name of the Lord be your sacred shrine of pilgrimage. |
O Saints, unite me with my Lord God, my Best Friend; my mind and body are hungry for Him. |
O servant Nanak, they alone find the Guru, with whom the Lord, the Treasure of Excellence, is pleased. |
O servant Nanak, through the karma of good actions, the treasure of devotional worship and the Name of the Lord are attained. |
O Siblings of Destiny, be the slaves of the Lord's slaves. Service to the Guru is worship of the Guru. How rare are those who obtain it! |
O Siblings of Destiny, become the dust of the feet of the humble Saints. In the Society of the Saints, the Guru is found. He is the Treasure of Liberation, the Source of all good fortune. |
O Siblings of Destiny, chant the Lord's Name, and focus your consciousness on Him. Take the Merchandise of the Lord's Praises with you. |
O Siblings of Destiny, filth is washed away by bathing in the Pure Water of the Name. |
