Through Truth, meet your Husband Lord, O soul-bride. Enchanted by your Husband, enshrine love for Him.

Your mind and body shall blossom forth in Truth. The value of this cannot be described.

The soul-bride finds her Husband Lord in the home of her own being; she is purified by the True Name. ||3||

If the mind within the mind dies, then the Husband ravishes and enjoys His bride.

They are woven into one texture, like pearls on a necklace around the neck.

In the Society of the Saints, peace wells up; the Gurmukhs take the Support of the Naam. ||4||

In an instant, one is born, and in an instant, one dies. In an instant one comes, and in an instant one goes.

One who recognizes the Shabad merges into it, and is not afflicted by death.

Section 05 - Siree Raag - Part 046

Our Lord and Master is Unweighable; He cannot be weighed. He cannot be found merely by talking. ||5||

The merchants and the traders have come; their profits are pre-ordained.

Those who practice Truth reap the profits, abiding in the Will of God.

With the Merchandise of Truth, they meet the Guru, who does not have a trace of greed. ||6||

As Gurmukh, they are weighed and measured, in the balance and the scales of Truth.

The enticements of hope and desire are quieted by the Guru, whose Word is True.

He Himself weighs with the scale; perfect is the weighing of the Perfect One. ||7||

No one is saved by mere talk and speech, nor by reading loads of books.

The body does not obtain purity without loving devotion to the Lord.

O Nanak, never forget the Naam; the Guru shall unite us with the Creator. ||8||9||

Siree Raag, First Mehl:

Meeting the Perfect True Guru, we find the jewel of meditative reflection.

Surrendering our minds to our Guru, we find universal love.

We find the wealth of liberation, and our demerits are erased. ||1||

O Siblings of Destiny, without the Guru, there is no spiritual wisdom.

Go and ask Brahma, Naarad and Vyaas, the writer of the Vedas. ||1||Pause||

Know that from the vibration of the Word, we obtain spiritual wisdom and meditation. Through it, we speak the Unspoken.

He is the fruit-bearing Tree, luxuriantly green with abundant shade.

The rubies, jewels and emeralds are in the Guru's Treasury. ||2||

From the Guru's Treasury, we receive the Love of the Immaculate Naam, the Name of the Lord.

We gather in the True Merchandise, through the Perfect Grace of the Infinite.

The True Guru is the Giver of peace, the Dispeller of pain, the Destroyer of demons. ||3||

The terrifying world-ocean is difficult and dreadful; there is no shore on this side or the one beyond.

There is no boat, no raft, no oars and no boatman.

The True Guru is the only boat on this terrifying ocean. His Glance of Grace carries us across. ||4||
