Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Sorat'h

One who knows God, and who lovingly focuses his attention on the One Word of the Shabad, keeps his spirituality intact.

The nine treasures and the eighteen spiritual powers of the Siddhas follow him, who keeps the Lord enshrined in his heart.

Without the True Guru, the Name is not found; understand this, and reflect upon it.

O Nanak, through perfect good destiny, one meets the True Guru, and finds peace, throughout the four ages. ||1||

Third Mehl:

Whether he is young or old, the self-willed manmukh cannot escape hunger and thirst.

The Gurmukhs are imbued with the Word of the Shabad; they are at peace, having lost their self-conceit.

They are satisfied and satiated within; they never feel hungry again.

Section 13 - Raag Sorat'h - Part 056

O Nanak, whatever the Gurmukhs do is acceptable; they remain lovingly absorbed in the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||2||

Pauree:

I am a sacrifice to those Sikhs who are Gurmukhs.

I behold the Blessed Vision, the Darshan of those who meditate on the Lord's Name.

Listening to the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, I contemplate His virtues; I write His Praises on the fabric of my mind.

I praise the Lord's Name with love, and eradicate all my sins.

Blessed, blessed and beauteous is that body and place, where my Guru places His feet. ||19||

Shalok, Third Mehl:

Without the Guru, spiritual wisdom is not obtained, and peace does not come to abide in the mind.

O Nanak, without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the self-willed manmukhs depart, after having wasted their lives. ||1||

Third Mehl:

All the Siddhas, spiritual masters and seekers search for the Name; they have grown weary of concentrating and focusing their attention.

Without the True Guru, no one finds the Name; the Gurmukhs unite in Union with the Lord.

Without the Name, all food and clothes are worthless; cursed is such spirituality, and cursed are such miraculous powers.

That alone is spirituality, and that alone is miraculous power, which the Carefree Lord spontaneously bestows.

O Nanak, the Lord's Name abides in the mind of the Gurmukh; this is spirituality, and this is miraculous power. ||2||

Pauree:

I am a minstrel of God, my Lord and Master; every day, I sing the songs of the Lord's Glorious Praises.

I sing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, and I listen to the Praises of the Lord, the Master of wealth and Maya.

The Lord is the Great Giver; all the world is begging; all beings and creatures are beggars.

O Lord, You are kind and compassionate; You give Your gifts to even worms and insects among the rocks.

Servant Nanak meditates on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; as Gurmukh, he has become truly wealthy. ||20||
