Tan man dhan da maan tyago sharan guru di aa jao;
Jis rab di hai bhaal tuhanun ik chhin andar pa jao. Satgur hai shahan da shah jo denda data ilahi ey; Satgur hai bhandaar mehar da jitthe thorh na kaai ey. Satgur malak kul aklan da roohan da vi swami ey; Aape naam japaawan wala aap hi satgur naami ey. Mehar kare tan mangte di ik chhin vich jholi bhar deve; Mehar kare tan lok sukhi parlok suhela kar deve. Ehdi mehar de sadke jeevan swargmai ho janda ey; Kahe avtar guru de bajhon jeev thokran khanda ey. |

Shed the pride of body, mind and the wealth and seek the shelter of the True Master;
You will realize, in a moment, God whom you have been searching for. The True Master is the king of kings; who bestows divine gift; The True Master is the treasure of divine grace, where there is no shortage. The True Master is the master of all wisdom, and is the master of souls too; The True Master himself blesses one with the Divine Name to remember, and is the one it does denote. If the True Master shows his grace, he can fill the empty bowl of the beggar in a trice, If the True Master shows his grace, he can make the life blissful here and hereafter. With his divine grace, life becomes heavenly; Avtar says, without the True Master, a being (creature) loiters aimlessly. |
