Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Shaloks In Addition To The Vaars

The Lord rains His Mercy down upon him, and his mind and body totally blossom forth; the entire world becomes green and rejuvenated. ||59||

The Word of the Shabad brings eternal spring; it rejuvenates the mind and body.

O Nanak, do not forget the Naam, the Name of the Lord, which has created everyone. ||60||

O Nanak, it is the spring season, for those Gurmukhs, within whose minds the Lord abides.

When the Lord showers His Mercy, the mind and body blossom forth, and all the world turns green and lush. ||61||

In the early hours of the morning, whose name should we chant?

Chant the Name of the Transcendent Lord, who is All-powerful to create and destroy. ||62||

The Persian wheel also cries out, "Too! Too! You! You!", with sweet and sublime sounds.

Our Lord and Master is always present; why do you cry out to Him in such a loud voice?

I am a sacrifice to that Lord who created the world, and who loves it.

Give up your selfishness, and then you shall meet your Husband Lord. Consider this Truth.

Speaking in shallow egotism, no one understands the Ways of God.

The forests and fields, and all the three worlds meditate on You, O Lord; this is the way they pass their days and nights forever.

Without the True Guru, no one finds the Lord. People have grown weary of thinking about it.

But if the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, then He Himself embellishes us.

O Nanak, the Gurmukhs meditate on the Lord; blessed and approved is their coming into the world. ||63||

Yoga is not obtained by wearing saffron robes; Yoga is not obtained by wearing dirty robes.

O Nanak, Yoga is obtained even while sitting in your own home, by following the Teachings of the True Guru. ||64||

You may wander in all four directions, and read the Vedas throughout the four ages.

O Nanak, if you meet with the True Guru, the Lord shall come to dwell within your mind, and you shall find the door of salvation. ||65||

O Nanak, the Hukam, the Command of your Lord and Master, is prevailing. The intellectually confused person wanders around lost, misled by his fickle consciousness.

If you make friends with the self-willed manmukhs, O friend, who can you ask for peace?

Make friends with the Gurmukhs, and focus your consciousness on the True Guru.

The root of birth and death will be cut away, and then, you shall find peace, O friend. ||66||

The Lord Himself instructs those who are misguided, when He casts His Glance of Grace.

O Nanak, those who are not blessed by His Glance of Grace, cry and weep and wail. ||67||

Shalok, Fourth Mehl:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

Blessed and very fortunate are those happy soul-brides who, as Gurmukh, meet their Sovereign Lord King.
