1The same mark on the forehead, the same throne, and the same Royal Court.

2Just like the father and grandfather, the son is approved.

3He took the thousand-headed serpent as his churning string, and with the force of devotional love, he churned the ocean of the world with his churning stick, the Sumayr mountain.

4He extracted the fourteen jewels, and brought forth the Divine Light.

5He made intuition his horse, and chastity his saddle.

6He placed the arrow of the Lord's Praise in the bow of Truth.

7In this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, there was only pitch darkness. Then, He rose like the sun to illuminate the darkness.

8He farms the field of Truth, and spreads out the canopy of Truth.

9Your kitchen always has ghee and flour to eat.

10You understand the four corners of the universe; in your mind, the Word of the Shabad is approved and supreme.

11You eliminate the comings and goings of reincarnation, and bestow the insignia of Your Glance of Grace.

12You are the Avataar, the Incarnation of the all-knowing Primal Lord.

13You are not pushed or shaken by the storm and the wind; you are like the Sumayr Mountain.

14You know the inner state of the soul; You are the Knower of knowers.

15How can I praise You, O True Supreme King, when You are so wise and all-knowing?

16Those blessings granted by the Pleasure of the True Guru - please bless Satta with those gifts.

17Seeing Nanak's canopy waving over Your head, everyone was astonished.

22The Sikhs and all the Congregation recognize You as the Supreme Lord God, and bow down to You.

23You are unchanging, unfathomable and immeasurable; You have no end or limitation.

24Those who serve You with love - You carry them across.

25Greed, envy, sexual desire, anger and emotional attachment - You have beaten them and driven them out.

26Blessed is Your place, and True is Your magnificent glory.

27You are Nanak, You are Angad, and You are Amar Daas; so do I recognize You.

28When I saw the Guru, then my mind was comforted and consoled. ||7||

29The four Gurus enlightened the four ages; the Lord Himself assumed the fifth form.

30He created Himself, and He Himself is the supporting pillar.

31He Himself is the paper, He Himself is the pen, and He Himself is the writer.

32All His followers come and go; He alone is fresh and new.

33Guru Arjun sits on the throne; the royal canopy waves over the True Guru.

34From east to west, He illuminates the four directions.

35Those self-willed manmukhs who do not serve the Guru die in shame.

36Your miracles increase two-fold, even four-fold; this is the True Lord's true blessing.

37The four Gurus enlightened the four ages; the Lord Himself assumed the fifth form. ||8||1||
