1The humble servant Prahlaad came and fell at the Lord's Feet. ||11||

2The True Guru implanted the treasure of the Naam within.

3Power, property and all Maya is false.

4But still, the greedy people continue clinging to them.

5Without the Name of the Lord, the mortals are punished in His Court. ||12||

6Says Nanak, everyone acts as the Lord makes them act.

7They alone are approved and accepted, who focus their consciousness on the Lord.

8He has made His devotees His Own.

9The Creator has appeared in His Own Form. ||13||1||2||

10Bhairao, Third Mehla:

11Serving the Guru, I obtain the Ambrosial Fruit; my egotism and desire have been quenched.

12The Name of the Lord dwells within my heart and mind, and the desires of my mind are quieted. ||1||

13O Dear Lord, my Beloved, please bless me with Your Mercy.

14Night and day, Your humble servant begs for Your Glorious Praises; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, he is saved. ||1||Pause||

15The Messenger of Death cannot even touch the humble Saints; it does not cause them even an iota of suffering or pain.

16Those who enter Your Sanctuary, Lord, save themselves, and save all their ancestors as well. ||2||

17You Yourself save the honor of Your devotees; this is Your Glory, O Lord.

18You cleanse them of the sins and the pains of countless incarnations; You love them without even an iota of duality. ||3||

19I am foolish and ignorant, and understand nothing. You Yourself bless me with understanding.

20You do whatever You please; nothing else can be done at all. ||4||

21Creating the world, You have linked all to their tasks - even the evil deeds which men do.

22They lose this precious human life in the gamble, and do not understand the Word of the Shabad. ||5||

23The self-willed manmukhs die, understanding nothing; they are enveloped by the darkness of evil-mindedness and ignorance.

24They do not cross over the terrible world-ocean; without the Guru, they drown and die. ||6||

25True are those humble beings who are imbued with the True Shabad; the Lord God unites them with Himself.

26Through the Word of the Guru's Bani, they come to understand the Shabad. They remain lovingly focused on the True Lord. ||7||

27You Yourself are Immaculate and Pure, and pure are Your humble servants who contemplate the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

28Nanak is forever a sacrifice to those, who enshrine the Lord's Name within their hearts. ||8||2||3||

29Bhairao, Fifth Mehla, Ashtpadheeyaa, Second House:

30One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

31He alone is a great king, who keeps the Naam, the Name of the Lord, within his heart.

32One who keeps the Naam in his heart - his tasks are perfectly accomplished.

33One who keeps the Naam in his heart, obtains millions of treasures.

34Without the Naam, life is useless. ||1||

35I praise that person, who has the capital of the Lord's Wealth.

36He is very fortunate, on whose forehead the Guru has placed His Hand. ||1||Pause||

37One who keeps the Naam in his heart, has many millions of armies on his side.

38One who keeps the Naam in his heart, enjoys peace and poise.
