1Your Light is in everyone; through it, You are known. Through love, You are easily met.

2O Nanak, I am a sacrifice to my Friend; He has come home to meet with those who are true. ||1||

3When her Friend comes to her home, the bride is very pleased.

4She is fascinated with the True Word of the Lord's Shabad; gazing upon her Lord and Master, she is filled with joy.

5She is filled with virtuous joy, and is totally pleased, when she is ravished and enjoyed by her Lord, and imbued with His Love.

6Her faults and demerits are eradicated, and she roofs her home with virtue, through the Perfect Lord, the Architect of Destiny.

7Conquering the thieves, she dwells as the mistress of her home, and administers justice wisely.

8O Nanak, through the Lord's Name, she is emancipated; through the Guru's Teachings, she meets her Beloved. ||2||

9The young bride has found her Husband Lord; her hopes and desires are fulfilled.

10She enjoys and ravishes her Husband Lord, and blends into the Word of the Shabad, pervading and permeating everywhere; the Lord is not far away.

11God is not far away; He is in each and every heart. All are His brides.

12He Himself is the Enjoyer, He Himself ravishes and enjoys; this is His glorious greatness.

13He is imperishable, immovable, invaluable and infinite. The True Lord is obtained through the Perfect Guru.

14O Nanak, He Himself unites in Union; by His Glance of Grace, He lovingly attunes them to Himself. ||3||

15My Husband Lord dwells in the loftiest balcony; He is the Supreme Lord of the three worlds.

16I am amazed, gazing upon His glorious excellence; the unstruck sound current of the Shabad vibrates and resonates.

17I contemplate the Shabad, and perform sublime deeds; I am blessed with the insignia, the banner of the Lord's Name.

18Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the false find no place of rest; only the jewel of the Naam brings acceptance and renown.

19Perfect is my honor, perfect is my intellect and password. I shall not have to come or go.

20O Nanak, the Gurmukh understands her own self; she becomes like her Imperishable Lord God. ||4||1||3||

21One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

22Raag Soohee, Chhant, First Mehla, Fourth House:

23The One who created the world, watches over it; He enjoins the people of the world to their tasks.

24Your gifts, O Lord, illuminate the heart, and the moon casts its light on the body.

25The moon glows, by the Lord's gift, and the darkness of suffering is taken away.

26The marriage party of virtue looks beautiful with the Groom; He chooses His enticing bride with care.

27The wedding is performed with glorious splendor; He has arrived, accompanied by the vibrations of the Panch Shabad, the Five Primal Sounds.

28The One who created the world, watches over it; He enjoins the people of the world to their tasks. ||1||

29I am a sacrifice to my pure friends, the immaculate Saints.

30This body is attached to them, and we have shared our minds.

31We have shared our minds - how could I forget those friends?

32Seeing them brings joy to my heart; I keep them clasped to my soul.

33They have all virtues and merits, forever and ever; they have no demerits or faults at all.

34I am a sacrifice to my pure friends, the immaculate Saints. ||2||

35One who has a basket of fragrant virtues, should enjoy its fragrance.

36If my friends have virtues, I will share in them.
