This world is deluded; You Yourself have deluded it.

Forgetting the One, it has become engrossed in duality.

Night and day, it wanders around endlessly, deluded by doubt; without the Name, it suffers in pain. ||2||

Those who are attuned to the Love of the Lord, the Architect of Destiny

-by serving the Guru, they are known throughout the four ages.

Those, upon whom the Lord bestows greatness, are absorbed in the Name of the Lord. ||3||

Being in love with Maya, they do not think of the Lord.

Bound and gagged in the City of Death, they suffer in terrible pain.

Blind and deaf, they see nothing at all; the self-willed manmukhs rot away in sin. ||4||

Those, whom You attach to Your Love, are attuned to Your Love.

Through loving devotional worship, they become pleasing to Your Mind.

They serve the True Guru, the Giver of eternal peace, and all their desires are fulfilled. ||5||

O Dear Lord, I seek Your Sanctuary forever.

You Yourself forgive us, and bless us with Glorious Greatness.

Those who know the Truth are absorbed in Truth.

His light merges and is absorbed into the Light, when he hears and merges in the Truth. ||1||

I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, to the Lord's Name, which brings us to glory.

She who adorns herself with the Love and the Fear of God,
