That person, who thirsts for the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan,
is absorbed in the One Lord, leaving duality behind.

So many cry out for Your Darshan, Lord.
How rare are those who realize the Word of the Guru's Shabad and merge with Him. ||1||Pause||

Through the Perfect Guru, the Knowing Lord is known. ||3||

The Independent Lord God is pervading all places.
The three worlds are the creation of that Sublime Lord.
The One Creator of the Creation is Unfathomable and Incomprehensible. ||5||

Those who practice Truth are honored and accepted.
They are honored in the Court of the True Lord. ||6||
