Enemies and pain shall not even approach you; only a rare few realize the Wisdom of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

Fire, water and air make up the world; these three are the slaves of the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

One who does not chant the Naam is a thief, dwelling in the fortress of the five thieves. ||2||

If someone does a good deed for someone else, he totally puffs himself up in his conscious mind.

The Lord bestows so many virtues and so much goodness; He does not ever regret it. ||3||

Those who praise You gather the wealth in their laps; this is Nanak's wealth.

Whoever shows respect to them is not summoned by the Messenger of Death. ||4||3||

Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

One who has no beauty, no social status, no mouth, no flesh

- meeting with the True Guru, he finds the Immaculate Lord, and dwells in Your Name. ||1||

O detached Yogi, contemplate the essence of reality,

and you shall never again come to be born into the world. ||1||Pause||

One who does not have good karma or Dharmic faith, sacred rosary or mala

- through the Light of God, wisdom is bestowed; the True Guru is our Protector. ||2||

One who does not observe any fasts, make religious vows or chant

- he does not have to worry about good luck or bad, if he obeys the Command of the True Guru. ||3||

One who is not hopeful, nor hopeless, who has trained his intuitive consciousness

- his being blends with the Supreme Being. O Nanak, his awareness is awakened. ||4||4||

Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

What he says is approved in the Court of the Lord.

He looks upon poison and nectar as one and the same. ||1||

What can I say? You are permeating and pervading all.

Whatever happens, is all by Your Will. ||1||Pause||

The Divine Light shines radiantly, and egotistical pride is dispelled.

The True Guru bestows the Ambrosial Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||2||

In this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, one's birth is approved,

if one is honored in the True Court. ||3||

Speaking and listening, one goes to the Celestial Home of the Indescribable Lord.

Mere words of mouth, O Nanak, are burnt away. ||4||5||

Prabhaatee, First Mehl:

One who bathes in the Ambrosial Water of spiritual wisdom takes with him the virtues of the sixty-eight sacred shrines of pilgrimage.

The Guru's Teachings are the gems and jewels; the Sikh who serves Him searches and finds them. ||1||

There is no sacred shrine equal to the Guru.

The Guru encompasses the ocean of contentment. ||1||Pause||

Section 34 - Raag Prabhaatee - Part 003

The Guru is the River, from which the Pure Water is obtained forever; it washes away the filth and pollution of evil-mindedness.

Finding the True Guru, the perfect cleansing bath is obtained, which transforms even beasts and ghosts into gods. ||2||
