|
Serving the True Guru, peace is found; intense desire and corruption are discarded.
|
The pains of death and birth are taken away; servant Nanak reflects upon the Word of the Shabad. ||49||
|
Meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, O mortal being, and you shall be honored in the Court of the Lord.
|
All your sins and terrible mistakes shall be taken away, and you shall be rid of your pride and egotism.

In Dhanaasaree, the soul-bride is known to be wealthy, O Siblings of Destiny, when she works for the True Guru.
|
She surrenders her body, mind and soul, O Siblings of Destiny, and lives according to the Hukam of His Command.
|
I sit where He wishes me to sit, O Siblings of Destiny; wherever He sends me, I go.
|
There is no other wealth as great, O Siblings of Destiny; such is the greatness of the True Name.
|
I sing forever the Glorious Praises of the True Lord; I shall remain with the True One forever.
|
So wear the clothes of His Glorious Virtues and goodness, O Siblings of Destiny; eat and enjoy the flavor of your own honor.
|
How can I praise Him, O Siblings of Destiny? I am a sacrifice to the Blessed Vision of His Darshan.
|
Great is the Glorious Greatness of the True Guru, O Siblings of Destiny; if one is blessed with good karma, He is found.
|
Some do not know how to submit to the Hukam of His Command, O Siblings of Destiny; they wander around lost in the love of duality.
|
They find no place of rest in the Sangat, O Siblings of Destiny; they find no place to sit.
|
Nanak: they alone submit to His Command, O Siblings of Destiny, who are pre-destined to live the Name.
|
I am a sacrifice to them, O Siblings of Destiny, I am forever a sacrifice to them. ||51||
|
Those beards are true, which brush the feet of the True Guru.
|
Those who serve their Guru night and day, live in bliss, night and day.
|
O Nanak, their faces appear beautiful in the Court of the True Lord. ||52||
|
True are the faces and true are the beards, of those who speak the Truth and live the Truth.
|
The True Word of the Shabad abides in their minds; they are absorbed in the True Guru.
|
True is their capital, and true is their wealth; they are blessed with the ultimate status.
|
They hear the Truth, they believe in the Truth; they act and work in the Truth.
|
They are given a place in the Court of the True Lord; they are absorbed in the True Lord.
|
O Nanak, without the True Guru, the True Lord is not found. The self-willed manmukhs leave, wandering around lost. ||53||
|
The rainbird cries, "Pri-o! Pri-o! Beloved! Beloved!" She is in love with the treasure, the water.

Meeting with the Guru, the cooling, soothing water is obtained, and all pain is taken away.
|
My thirst has been quenched, and intuitive peace and poise have welled up; my cries and screams of anguish are past.
|
O Nanak, the Gurmukhs are peaceful and tranquil; they enshrine the Naam, the Name of the Lord, within their hearts. ||54||
|
O rainbird, chirp the True Name, and let yourself be attuned to the True Lord.
|
Your word shall be accepted and approved, if you speak as Gurmukh.
|
Remember the Shabad, and your thirst shall be relieved; surrender to the Will of the Lord.
