O Nanak, they are absorbed in the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||4||12||32||

Gauree Gwaarayree, Third Mehl:

The Guru's service has been performed throughout the four ages.

Very few are those perfect ones who do this good deed.

The wealth of the Lord's Name is inexhaustible; it shall never be exhausted.

In this world, it brings a constant peace, and at the Lord's Gate, it brings honor. ||1||

O my mind, have no doubt about this.

Those Gurmukhs who serve, drink in the Ambrosial Nectar. ||1||Pause||

Those who serve the True Guru are the greatest people of the world.

They save themselves, and they redeem all their generations as well.

They keep the Name of the Lord clasped tightly to their hearts.

Attuned to the Naam, they cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||2||

Serving the True Guru, the mind becomes humble forever.

Egotism is subdued, and the heart-lotus blossoms forth.

The Unstruck Melody vibrates, as they dwell within the home of the self.

Attuned to the Naam, they remain detached within their own home. ||3||

Serving the True Guru, their words are true.

Throughout the ages, the devotees chant and repeat these words.

Night and day, they meditate on the Lord, the Sustainer of the Earth.

Section 07 - Raag Gauree - Part 012

O Nanak, attuned to the Naam, the Name of the Lord, they are detached, in the perfect balance of Nirvaanaa. ||4||13||33||

Gauree Gwaarayree, Third Mehl:

Through great good fortune and high destiny, one meets the True Guru.

The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is constantly within the heart, and one enjoys the sublime essence of the Lord. ||1||

O mortal, become Gurmukh, and meditate on the Name of the Lord.

Be victorious in the game of life, and earn the profit of the Naam. ||1||Pause||

Spiritual wisdom and meditation come to those unto whom the Word of the Guru's Shabad is sweet.

By Guru's Grace, a few have tasted, and seen it. ||2||

They may perform all sorts of religious rituals and good actions,

but without the Name, the egotistical ones are cursed and doomed. ||3||

They are bound and gagged, and hung by Maya's noose;

O servant Nanak, they shall be released only by Guru's Grace. ||4||14||34||

Third Mehl, Gauree Bairaagan:

The clouds pour their rain down upon the earth, but isn't there water within the earth as well?

Water is contained within the earth; without feet, the clouds run around and let down their rain. ||1||

O Baba, get rid of your doubts like this.

As you act, so shall you become, and so you shall go and mingle. ||1||Pause||

As woman or man, what can anyone do?

The many and various forms are always Yours, O Lord; they shall merge again into You. ||2||
