The Gurmukh has the light of devotional worship within his heart.

Understanding his own self, he meets God. ||1||Pause||

The Gurmukh's dance is to embrace love for the Lord;

to the beat of the drum, he sheds his ego from within.

My God is True; He Himself is the Knower of all.

Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, recognize the Creator Lord within yourself. ||2||

The Gurmukh is filled with devotional love for the Beloved Lord.

He intuitively reflects upon the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

For the Gurmukh, loving devotional worship is the way to the True Lord.

But the dances and the worship of the hypocrites bring only pain. ||3||

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 019

True Devotion is to remain dead while yet alive.

By Guru's Grace, one crosses over the terrible world-ocean.

Through the Guru's Teachings, one's devotion is accepted,

and then, the Dear Lord Himself comes to dwell in the mind. ||4||

When the Lord bestows His Mercy, He leads us to meet the True Guru.

Then, one's devotion becomes steady, and the consciousness is centered upon the Lord.

Those who are imbued with Devotion have truthful reputations.

O Nanak, imbued with the Naam, the Name of the Lord, peace is obtained. ||5||12||51||

By Guru's Grace, the Lord abides in the mind, and one comes to understand the Lord. ||1||

In this age, the Lord's Name is fearless; it is obtained by meditative reflection upon the Guru.

Without the Name, the blind, foolish, self-willed manmukh is under Death's power. ||2||

By the Pleasure of the Lord's Will, the humble being performs His service, and understands the True Lord.

By the Pleasure of the Lord's Will, He is to be praised; surrendering to His Will, peace ensues. ||3||

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

You are the True Creator, my Lord Master.
