Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Saarang

The object belongs to someone else, but the fool is proud of it, and shows his shallow nature.

O Nanak, without understanding, no one obtains it; they come and go in reincarnation, over and over again. ||1||

Third Mehl:

My mind is in ecstasy; I have met my Beloved Lord. My beloved friends, the Saints, are delighted.

Those who are united with the Primal Lord shall never be separated again. The Creator has united them with Himself.

The Shabad permeates my inner being, and I have found the Guru; all my sorrows are dispelled.

I praise forever the Lord, the Giver of peace; I keep Him enshrined deep within my heart.

How can the self-willed manmukh gossip about those who are embellished and exalted in the True Word of the Shabad?

My Beloved Himself preserves the honor of those who have come to the Guru's Door seeking Sanctuary.

O Nanak, the Gurmukhs are filled with joy; their faces are radiant in the Court of the Lord. ||2||

Pauree:

The husband and wife are very much in love; joining together, their love increases.

Gazing on his children and his wife, the man is pleased and attached to Maya.

Stealing the wealth of his own country and other lands, he brings it home and feeds them.

In the end, hatred and conflict well up, and no one can save him.

O Nanak, without the Name, those loving attachments are cursed; engrossed in them, he suffers in pain. ||32||

Shalok, Third Mehl:

The Guru's Word is the Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam. Eating it, all hunger departs.

There is no thirst or desire at all, when the Naam comes to dwell in the mind.

Eating anything other than the Name, disease runs to afflict the body.

O Nanak, whoever takes the Praise of the Shabad as his spices and flavors - the Lord unites him in His Union. ||1||

Third Mehl:

The life within all living beings is the Word of the Shabad. Through it, we meet our Husband Lord.

Without the Shabad, the world is in darkness. Through the Shabad, it is enlightened.

The Pandits, the religious scholars, and the silent sages read and write until they are weary. The religious fanatics are tired of washing their bodies.

Without the Shabad, no one attains the Lord; the miserable depart weeping and wailing.

O Nanak, by His Glance of Grace, the Merciful Lord is attained. ||2||

Pauree:

The husband and wife are very much in love; sitting together, they make evil plans.

All that is seen shall pass away. This is the Will of my God.

How can anyone remain in this world forever? Some may try to devise a plan.

Working for the Perfect Guru, the wall becomes permanent and stable.

O Nanak, the Lord forgives them, and merges them into Himself; they are absorbed in the Lord's Name. ||33||
