Satjug andar ese ne hi aa prahlaad bachaya si;
Treta de vich maar ke raavan dwaapar karishan sadaaya si. Ese ne hi kaljug andar naanak naam rakhaya si; Ese ne hi roop badal ke boota gyaan da laya si. Aad ton hai eh aape ikko jisnun jag nirankar kahe; Bachan guru da hai rab aape baar baar avtar kahe. |

In Golden Age, God Himself appeared and saved Prahlad;
In Silver Age, God Himself appeared and killed Ravana, and in Bronze Age God Himself appeared and was called as Krishna. God Himself appeared in the Irom Age and was named as Nanak; God Himself changed His form and put up the plant (Buta) of divine knowledge. God is One since beginning, who is described by world as Formless; Avtar says again and again that the word of the True Master (Gurbachan) is God Himself. |
