In countless incarnations, I went astray. Now that I have found You, I shall no longer wander.

It is His work; those who are absorbed in the Word of the Guru's Shabad come to know it well. ||3||

The Shabad is Yours; You are Yourself. Where is there any doubt?

O Nanak, one whose essence is merged with the Lord's essence does not have to enter the cycle of reincarnation again. ||4||1||15||35||

Gauree Bairaagan, Third Mehl:

The whole world is under the power of Death, bound by the love of duality.

The self-willed manmukhs do their deeds in ego; they receive their just rewards. ||1||

O my mind, focus your consciousness on the Guru's Feet.

As Gurmukh, you shall be awarded the treasure of the Naam. In the Court of the Lord, you shall be saved. ||1||Pause||

Through 8.4 million incarnations, people wander lost; in stubborn-mindedness, they come and go.

They do not realize the Word of the Guru's Shabad; they are reincarnated over and over again. ||2||

The Gurmukh understands his own self. The Lord's Name comes to dwell within the mind.

Imbued with devotion to the Lord's Name, night and day, he merges in peace. ||3||

When one's mind dies in the Shabad, one radiates faith and confidence, shedding egotism and corruption.

O servant Nanak, through the karma of good actions, the treasure of devotional worship and the Name of the Lord are attained. ||4||2||16||36||

Gauree Bairaagan, Third Mehl:

The Lord, Har, Har, has ordained that the soul is to stay in her parents' home for only a few short days.

Glorious is that soul-bride, who as Gurmukh, sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord.

She who cultivates virtue in her parents' home, shall obtain a home at her in-laws.

The Gurmukhs are intuitively absorbed into the Lord. The Lord is pleasing to their minds. ||1||

Our Husband Lord dwells in this world, and in the world beyond. Tell me, how can He be found?

The Immaculate Lord Himself is unseen. He unites us with Himself. ||1||Pause||

Section 07 - Raag Gauree - Part 013

God Himself bestows wisdom; meditate on the Name of the Lord.

By great good fortune, one meets the True Guru, who places the Ambrosial Nectar in the mouth.

When egotism and duality are eradicated, one intuitively merges in peace.

He Himself is All-pervading; He Himself links us to His Name. ||2||

The self-willed manmukhs, in their arrogant pride, do not find God; they are so ignorant and foolish!

They do not serve the True Guru, and in the end, they regret and repent, over and over again.

They are cast into the womb to be reincarnated, and within the womb, they rot.

As it pleases my Creator Lord, the self-willed manmukhs wander around lost. ||3||

My Lord God inscribed the full pre-ordained destiny upon the forehead.
