O Nanak, they alone are saved, who remain lovingly absorbed in the True Lord. ||2||

Pauree:

The minstrel cries out, and God hears him.

He is comforted within his mind, and he obtains the Perfect Lord.

Whatever destiny is pre-ordained by the Lord, those are the deeds he does.

When the Lord and Master becomes Merciful, then one obtains the Mansion of the Lord's Presence as his home.

That God of mine is so very great; as Gurmukh, I have met Him. ||5||

Shalok, Third Mehl:

There is One Lord God of all; He remains ever-present.

O Nanak, if one does not obey the Hukam of the Lord's Command, then within one's own home, the Lord seems far away.

They alone obey the Lord's Command, upon whom He casts His Glance of Grace.

Obeying His Command, one obtains peace, and becomes the happy, loving soul-bride. ||1||

Third Mehl:

She who does not love her Husband Lord, burns and wastes away all through the night of her life.

O Nanak, the soul-brides dwell in peace; they have the Lord, their King, as their Husband. ||2||

Pauree:

Roaming over the entire world, I have seen that the Lord is the only Giver.

The Lord cannot be obtained by any device at all; He is the Architect of Karma.

Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, the Lord comes to dwell in the mind, and the Lord is easily revealed within.

The fire of desire within is quenched, and one bathes in the Lord's Pool of Ambrosial Nectar.

The great greatness of the great Lord God - the Gurmukh speaks of this. ||6||

Shalok, Third Mehl:

What love is this between the body and soul, which ends when the body falls?

Why feed it by telling lies? When you leave, it does not go with you.

Section 09 - Raag Goojaree - Part 023

The body is merely blind dust; go, and ask the soul.

The soul answers, "I am enticed by Maya, and so I come and go, again and again."

O Nanak, I do not know my Lord and Master's Command, by which I would merge in the Truth. ||1||

Third Mehl:

The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the only permanent wealth; all other wealth comes and goes.

Thieves cannot steal this wealth, nor can robbers take it away.

This wealth of the Lord is embedded in the soul, and with the soul, it shall depart.

It is obtained from the Perfect Guru; the self-willed manmukhs do not receive it.

Blessed are the traders, O Nanak, who have come to earn the wealth of the Naam. ||2||

Pauree:

My Master is so very great, true, profound and unfathomable.

The whole world is under His power; everything is the projection of Him.

By Guru's Grace, the eternal wealth is obtained, bringing peace and patience to the mind.

By His Grace, the Lord dwells in the mind, and one meets the Brave Guru.
