古鲁·格兰特·萨希布 1040 · Raag Maaroo · Guru Nanak Dev Ji

1The Primal Lord is everywhere, immaculate and all-knowing.

2He administers justice, and is absorbed in the spiritual wisdom of the Guru.

3He seizes sexual desire and anger by their necks, and kills them; He eradicates egotism and greed. ||6||

4In the True Place, the Formless Lord abides.

5Whoever understands his own self, contemplates the Word of the Shabad.

6He comes to abide deep within the True Mansion of His Presence, and his comings and goings are ended. ||7||

7His mind does not waver, and he is not buffeted by the winds of desire.

8Such a Yogi vibrates the unstruck sound current of the Shabad.

9God Himself plays the pure music of the Panch Shabad, the five primal sounds to hear. ||8||

10In the Fear of God, in detachment, one intuitively merges into the Lord.

11Renouncing egotism, he is imbued with the unstruck sound current.

12With the ointment of enlightenment, the Immaculate Lord is known; the Immaculate Lord King is pervading everywhere. ||9||

13God is eternal and imperishable; He is the Destroyer of pain and fear.

14He cures the disease, and cuts away the noose of death.

15O Nanak, the Lord God is the Destroyer of fear; meeting the Guru, the Lord God is found. ||10||

16One who knows the Immaculate Lord chews up death.

17One who understands karma, realizes the Word of the Shabad.

18He Himself knows, and He Himself realizes. This whole world is all His play. ||11||

19He Himself is the Banker, and He Himself is the Merchant.

20The Appraiser Himself appraises.

21He Himself tests upon His Touchstone, and He Himself estimates the value. ||12||

22God Himself, the Merciful Lord, grants His Grace.

23The Gardener pervades and permeates each and every heart.

24The pure, primal, detached Lord abides within all. The Guru, the Lord Incarnate, leads us to meet the Lord God. ||13||

25God is wise and all-knowing; He purges men of their pride.

26Eradicating duality, the One Lord reveals Himself.

27Such a being remains unattached amidst hope, singing the Praise of the Immaculate Lord, who has no ancestry. ||14||

28Eradicating egotism, he obtains the peace of the Shabad.

29He alone is spiritually wise, who contemplates his own self.

30O Nanak, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, the true profit is obtained; in the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, the fruit of Truth is obtained. ||15||2||19||

31Maaroo, First Mehla:

32Speak the Truth, and remain in the home of Truth.

33Remain dead while yet alive, and cross over the terrifying world-ocean.

34The Guru is the boat, the ship, the raft; meditating on the Lord in your mind, you shall be carried across to the other side. ||1||

35Eliminating egotism, possessiveness and greed,

36one is liberated from the nine gates, and obtains a place in the Tenth Gate.

37Lofty and high, the farthest of the far and infinite, He created Himself. ||2||

38Receiving the Guru's Teachings, and lovingly attuned to the Lord, one crosses over.

39Singing the Praises of the absolute Lord, why should anyone be afraid of death?

40Wherever I look, I see only You; I do not sing of any other at all. ||3||

41True is the Lord's Name, and True is His Sanctuary.

42True is the Word of the Guru's Shabad, grasping it, one is carries across.

43Speaking the Unspoken, one sees the Infinite Lord, and then, he does not have to enter the womb of reincarnation again. ||4||

44Without the Truth, no one finds sincerity or contentment.

45Without the Guru, no one is liberated; coming and going in reincarnation continue.

46Chanting the Mool Mantra, and the Name of the Lord, the source of nectar, says Nanak, I have found the Perfect Lord. ||5||
