Sitting in that place, sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord forever, and be absorbed in the True Word of the Shabad. ||5||

Those who close off the nine gates, and restrain the wandering mind,

come to dwell in the Home of the Tenth Gate.

There, the Unstruck Melody of the Shabad vibrates day and night. Through the Guru's Teachings, the Shabad is heard. ||6||

Without the Shabad, there is only darkness within.

The genuine article is not found, and the cycle of reincarnation does not end.

The key is in the hands of the True Guru; no one else can open this door. By perfect destiny, He is met. ||7||

You are the hidden and the revealed in all places.

Receiving Guru's Grace, this understanding is obtained.

O Nanak, praise the Naam forever; as Gurmukh, enshrine it within the mind. ||8||24||25||

Maajh, Third Mehl:

The Gurmukhs meet the Lord, and inspire others to meet Him as well.

Death does not see them, and pain does not afflict them.

Subduing egotism, they break all their bonds; as Gurmukh, they are adorned with the Word of the Shabad. ||1||

I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, to those who look beautiful in the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.

The Gurmukhs sing, the Gurmukhs dance, and focus their consciousness on the Lord. ||1||Pause||

Night and day, they are diseased, like maggots in manure, and in manure they endure agony. ||7||

The Gurmukhs know that the Lord alone acts, and causes others to act.
