Some are blessed with glory in their own homes, while others wander in doubt and pride. ||4||3||

Bilaaval, Third Mehl:

The perfect Lord has fashioned the Perfect Creation. Behold the Lord pervading everywhere.

In this play of the world, is the glorious greatness of the True Name. No one should take pride in himself. ||1||

One who accepts the wisdom of the True Guru's Teachings, is absorbed into the True Guru.

The Lord's Name abides deep within the nucleus of one who realizes the Bani of the Guru's Word within his soul. ||1||Pause||

Now, this is the essence of the teachings of the four ages: for the human race, the Name of the One Lord is the greatest treasure.

Celibacy, self-discipline and pilgrimages were the essence of Dharma in those past ages; but in this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, the Praise of the Lord's Name is the essence of Dharma. ||2||

Each and every age has its own essence of Dharma; study the Vedas and the Puraanas, and see this as true.

They are Gurmukh, who meditate on the Lord, Har, Har; in this world, they are perfect and approved. ||3||

Section 20 - Raag Bilaaval - Part 004

Says Nanak, loving the True Lord, the mind's egotism and self-conceit is eradicated.

Those who speak and listen to the Lord's Name, all find peace. Those who believe in it, obtain the supreme treasure. ||4||4||

Bilaaval, Third Mehl:

The Lord Himself attaches the Gurmukh to His Love;

joyful melodies permeate his home, and he is embellished with the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

The women come and sing the songs of joy.

Meeting with their Beloved, lasting peace is obtained. ||1||

I am a sacrifice to those, whose minds are filled with the Lord.

Meeting with the humble servant of the Lord, peace is obtained, and one intuitively sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

They are always imbued with Your Joyful Love;

O Dear Lord, You Yourself come to dwell in their minds.

They obtain eternal glory.

The Gurmukhs are united in the Lord's Union. ||2||

The Gurmukhs are imbued with the love of the Word of the Shabad.

They abide in the home of their own being, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.

They are dyed in the deep crimson color of the Lord's Love; they look so beautiful.

This dye never fades away; they are absorbed in the True Lord. ||3||

The Shabad deep within the nucleus of the self dispels the darkness of ignorance.

Meeting with my Friend, the True Guru, I have obtained spiritual wisdom.

Those who are attuned to the True Lord, do not have to enter the cycle of reincarnation again.

O Nanak, my Perfect Guru implants the Naam, the Name of the Lord, deep within. ||4||5||

Bilaaval, Third Mehl:

From the Perfect Guru, I have obtained glorious greatness.
