Those people, to whose hearts the Lord's Name seems sweet, are carried across the terrifying world-ocean by the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||1||Pause||

The mortal wears various religious robes, but his consciousness is unsteady; deep within, he is filled with sexual desire, anger and egotism.

Deep within is the great thirst and immense hunger; he wanders from door to door. ||2||

Those who die in the Word of the Guru's Shabad are reborn; they find the door of liberation.

With constant peace and tranquility deep within, they enshrine the Lord within their hearts. ||3||

As it pleases Him, He inspires us to act. Nothing else can be done.

O Nanak, the Gurmukh contemplates the Word of the Shabad, and is blessed with the glorious greatness of the Lord's Name. ||4||8||18||

Bhairao, Third Mehl:

Lost in egotism, Maya and attachment, the mortal earns pain, and eats pain.

The great disease, the rabid disease of greed, is deep within him; he wanders around indiscriminately. ||1||

The life of the self-willed manmukh in this world is cursed.

He does not remember the Lord's Name, even in his dreams. He is never in love with the Lord's Name. ||1||Pause||

He acts like a beast, and does not understand anything. Practicing falsehood, he becomes false.

But when the mortal meets the True Guru, his way of looking at the world changes. How rare are those humble beings who seek and find the Lord. ||2||

That person, whose heart is forever filled with the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, obtains the Lord, the Treasure of Virtue.

By Guru's Grace, he finds the Perfect Lord; the egotistical pride of his mind is eradicated. ||3||

The Creator Himself acts, and causes all to act. He Himself places us on the path.

Section 28 - Raag Bhairao - Part 009

He Himself blesses the Gurmukh with glorious greatness; O Nanak, he merges in the Naam. ||4||9||19||

Bhairao, Third Mehl:

Upon my writing tablet, I write the Name of the Lord, the Lord of the Universe, the Lord of the World.

In the love of duality, the mortals are caught in the noose of the Messenger of Death.

The True Guru nurtures and sustains me.

The Lord, the Giver of peace, is always with me. ||1||

Following his Guru's instructions, Prahlaad chanted the Lord's Name;

he was a child, but he was not afraid when his teacher yelled at him. ||1||Pause||

Prahlaad's mother gave her beloved son some advice:

"My son, you must abandon the Lord's Name, and save your life!"

Prahlaad said: "Listen, O my mother;

I shall never give up the Lord's Name. My Guru has taught me this."||2||

Sandaa and Markaa, his teachers, went to his father the king, and complained:

"Prahlaad himself has gone astray, and he leads all the other pupils astray."
