1O woman, the false ones are being cheated by falsehood.

2God is your Husband; He is Handsome and True. He is obtained by reflecting upon the Guru. ||1||Pause||

3The self-willed manmukhs do not recognize their Husband Lord; how will they spend their life-night?

4Filled with arrogance, they burn with desire; they suffer in the pain of the love of duality.

5The happy soul-brides are attuned to the Shabad; their egotism is eliminated from within.

6They enjoy their Husband Lord forever, and their life-night passes in the most blissful peace. ||2||

7She is utterly lacking in spiritual wisdom; she is abandoned by her Husband Lord. She cannot obtain His Love.

8In the darkness of intellectual ignorance, she cannot see her Husband, and her hunger does not depart.

9Come and meet with me, my sister soul-brides, and unite me with my Husband.

10She who meets the True Guru, by perfect good fortune, finds her Husband; she is absorbed in the True One. ||3||

11Those upon whom He casts His Glance of Grace become His happy soul-brides.

12One who recognizes her Lord and Master places her body and mind in offering before Him.

13Within her own home, she finds her Husband Lord; her egotism is dispelled.

14O Nanak, the happy soul-brides are embellished and exalted; night and day they are absorbed in devotional worship. ||4||28||61||

15Siree Raag, Third Mehla:

16Some enjoy their Husband Lord; unto whose door should I go to ask for Him?

17I serve my True Guru with love, that He may lead me to Union with my Husband Lord.

18He created all, and He Himself watches over us. Some are close to Him, and some are far away.

19She who knows her Husband Lord to be always with her, enjoys His Constant Presence. ||1||

20O woman, you must walk in harmony with the Guru's Will.

21Night and day, you shall enjoy your Husband, and you shall intuitively merge into the True One. ||1||Pause||

22Attuned to the Shabad, the happy soul-brides are adorned with the True Word of the Shabad.

23Within their own home, they obtain the Lord as their Husband, with love for the Guru.

24Upon her beautiful and cozy bed, she enjoys the Love of her Lord. She is overflowing with the treasure of devotion.

25That Beloved God abides in her mind; He gives His Support to all. ||2||

26I am forever a sacrifice to those who praise their Husband Lord.

27I dedicate my mind and body to them, and give my head as well; I fall at their feet.

28Those who recognize the One renounce the love of duality.

29The Gurmukh recognizes the Naam, O Nanak, and is absorbed into the True One. ||3||29||62||

30Siree Raag, Third Mehla:

31O Dear Lord, You are the Truest of the True. All things are in Your Power.

32The 8.4 million species of beings wander around searching for You, but without the Guru, they do not find You.

33When the Dear Lord grants His Forgiveness, this human body finds lasting peace.

34By Guru's Grace, I serve the True One, who is Immeasurably Deep and Profound. ||1||

35O my mind, attuned to the Naam, you shall find peace.

36Follow the Guru's Teachings, and praise the Naam; there is no other at all. ||1||Pause||

37The Righteous Judge of Dharma, by the Hukam of God's Command, sits and administers True Justice.

38Those evil souls, ensnared by the love of duality, are subject to Your Command.

39The souls on their spiritual journey chant and meditate within their minds on the One Lord, the Treasure of Excellence.
