古鲁·格兰特·萨希布 650 · Raag Sorath · Guru Amar Daas Ji

1O Nanak, whatever the Gurmukhs do is acceptable; they remain lovingly absorbed in the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||2||

2Pauree:

3I am a sacrifice to those Sikhs who are Gurmukhs.

4I behold the Blessed Vision, the Darshan of those who meditate on the Lord's Name.

5Listening to the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, I contemplate His virtues; I write His Praises on the fabric of my mind.

6I praise the Lord's Name with love, and eradicate all my sins.

7Blessed, blessed and beauteous is that body and place, where my Guru places His feet. ||19||

8Shalok, Third Mehla:

9Without the Guru, spiritual wisdom is not obtained, and peace does not come to abide in the mind.

10O Nanak, without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the self-willed manmukhs depart, after having wasted their lives. ||1||

11Third Mehla:

12All the Siddhas, spiritual masters and seekers search for the Name; they have grown weary of concentrating and focusing their attention.

13Without the True Guru, no one finds the Name; the Gurmukhs unite in Union with the Lord.

14Without the Name, all food and clothes are worthless; cursed is such spirituality, and cursed are such miraculous powers.

15That alone is spirituality, and that alone is miraculous power, which the Carefree Lord spontaneously bestows.

16O Nanak, the Lord's Name abides in the mind of the Gurmukh; this is spirituality, and this is miraculous power. ||2||

17Pauree:

18I am a minstrel of God, my Lord and Master; every day, I sing the songs of the Lord's Glorious Praises.

19I sing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, and I listen to the Praises of the Lord, the Master of wealth and Maya.

20The Lord is the Great Giver; all the world is begging; all beings and creatures are beggars.

21O Lord, You are kind and compassionate; You give Your gifts to even worms and insects among the rocks.

22Servant Nanak meditates on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; as Gurmukh, he has become truly wealthy. ||20||

23Shalok, Third Mehla:

24Reading and studying are just worldly pursuits, if there is thirst and corruption within.

25Reading in egotism, all have grown weary; through the love of duality, they are ruined.

26He alone is educated, and he alone is a wise Pandit, who contemplates the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

27He searches within himself, and finds the true essence; he finds the Door of Salvation.

28He finds the Lord, the treasure of excellence, and peacefully contemplates Him.

29Blessed is the trader, O Nanak, who, as Gurmukh, takes the Name as his only Support. ||1||

30Third Mehla:

31Without conquering his mind, no one can be successful. See this, and concentrate on it.

32The wandering holy men are tired of of making pilgrimages to sacred shrines; they have not been able to conquer their minds.

33The Gurmukh has conquered his mind, and he remains lovingly absorbed in the True Lord.

34O Nanak, this is how the filth of the mind is removed; the Word of the Shabad burns away the ego. ||2||

35Pauree:

36O Saints of the Lord, O my Siblings of Destiny, please meet with me, and implant the Name of the One Lord within me.

37O humble servants of the Lord, adorn me with the decorations of the Lord, Har, Har; let me wear the robes of the Lord's forgiveness.

38Such decorations are pleasing to my God; such love is dear to the Lord.

39I chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, day and night; in an instant, all sins are eradicated.

40That Gurmukh, unto whom the Lord becomes merciful, chants the Lord's Name, and wins the game of life. ||21||
