Holy Avtar Vani - Shabad No. 14

|
Eh Nirankar prabhu hai ekko sachcha kewal jisda nan;
Karta dharta jo har shai da jisne rachya kul jahan.
Maut da hakam paak janam ton kayam hai jo ape ap;
Pure gur ton rehmat mang ke ese da toon kar lai jaap.
Sachha suchha dhur ton jehrha kaayam aakhir avval eh;
Kahe avtar eh ikko sachha hai vi hosi vi kal eh.

The Formless One-nirankar, the Almighty is the 0nly entity, whose name is true;
He is the Lord of everything and He has created the whole universe.
He is the ruler of death and He is beyond birth, and He is self-existent;
O’man, seek the grace of the perfect True Master and remember this God all the time.
It is God who is eternally true and pure and who is ever-existent;
Avtar says, God is the only True One, who is there and shall be there even hereafter.
