Those who joyfully meet with the True Guru are perfectly fulfilled and wise.

Meeting with the Guru, they cross over the terrifying world-ocean. In the Court of the Lord, they are honored and approved.

O Nanak, their faces are radiant; the Music of the Shabad, the Word of God, wells up within them. ||4||22||

Siree Raag, First Mehl:

Make your deals, dealers, and take care of your merchandise.

Buy that object which will go along with you.

In the next world, the All-knowing Merchant will take this object and care for it. ||1||

O Siblings of Destiny, chant the Lord's Name, and focus your consciousness on Him.

Take the Merchandise of the Lord's Praises with you. Your Husband Lord shall see this and approve. ||1||Pause||

Section 05 - Siree Raag - Part 010

Those who do not have the Assets of Truth-how can they find peace?

By dealing their deals of falsehood, their minds and bodies become false.

Like the deer caught in the trap, they suffer in terrible agony; they continually cry out in pain. ||2||

The counterfeit coins are not put into the Treasury; they do not obtain the Blessed Vision of the Lord-Guru.

The false ones have no social status or honor. No one succeeds through falsehood.

Practicing falsehood again and again, people come and go in reincarnation, and forfeit their honor. ||3||

O Nanak, instruct your mind through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, and praise the Lord.

Those who are imbued with the love of the Name of the Lord are not loaded down by doubt.

Those who chant the Name of the Lord earn great profits; the Fearless Lord abides within their minds. ||4||23||

Siree Raag, First Mehl, Second House:

Wealth, the beauty of youth and flowers are guests for only a few days.

Like the leaves of the water-lily, they wither and fade and finally die. ||1||

Be happy, dear beloved, as long as your youth is fresh and delightful.

But your days are few-you have grown weary, and now your body has grown old. ||1||Pause||

My playful friends have gone to sleep in the graveyard.

In my double-mindedness, I shall have to go as well. I cry in a feeble voice. ||2||

Haven't you heard the call from beyond, O beautiful soul-bride?

You must go to your in-laws; you cannot stay with your parents forever. ||3||

O Nanak, know that she who sleeps in her parents' home is plundered in broad daylight.

She has lost her bouquet of merits; gathering one of demerits, she departs. ||4||24||

Siree Raag, First Mehl, Second House:

He Himself is the Enjoyer, and He Himself is the Enjoyment. He Himself is the Ravisher of all.

He Himself is the Bride in her dress, He Himself is the Bridegroom on the bed. ||1||

My Lord and Master is imbued with love; He is totally permeating and pervading all. ||1||Pause||
