They contemplate the Unspoken Speech, merging in absorption in the True Guru.

Drinking in the Ambrosial Nectar, they are contented; they go to the Court of the Lord in robes of honor. ||7||

In each and every heart the Music of the Lord's Flute vibrates, night and day, with sublime love for the Shabad.

Only those few who become Gurmukh understand this by instructing their minds.

O Nanak, do not forget the Naam. Practicing the Shabad you shall be saved. ||8||14||

Siree Raag, First Mehl:

There are painted mansions to behold, white-washed, with beautiful doors;

they were constructed to give pleasure to the mind, but this is only for the sake of the love of duality.

The inner being is empty without love. The body shall crumble into a heap of ashes. ||1||

O Siblings of Destiny, this body and wealth shall not go along with you.

The Lord's Name is the pure wealth; through the Guru, God bestows this gift. ||1||Pause||

The Lord's Name is the pure wealth; it is given only by the Giver.

One who has the Guru, the Creator, as his Friend, shall not be questioned hereafter.

He Himself delivers those who are delivered. He Himself is the Forgiver. ||2||

Section 05 - Siree Raag - Part 050

The self-willed manmukh looks upon his daughters, sons and relatives as his own.

Gazing upon his wife, he is pleased. But along with happiness, they bring grief.

The Gurmukhs are attuned to the Word of the Shabad. Day and night, they enjoy the Sublime Essence of the Lord. ||3||

The consciousness of the wicked, faithless cynics wanders around in search of transitory wealth, unstable and distracted.

Searching outside of themselves, they are ruined; the object of their search is in that sacred place within the home of the heart.

The self-willed manmukhs, in their ego, miss it; the Gurmukhs receive it in their laps. ||4||

You worthless, faithless cynic-recognize your own origin!

This body is made of blood and semen. It shall be consigned to the fire in the end.

The body is under the power of the breath, according to the True Sign inscribed upon your forehead. ||5||

Everyone begs for a long life-no one wishes to die.

A life of peace and comfort comes to that Gurmukh, within whom God dwells.

Without the Naam, what good those who do not have the Blessed Vision, the Darshan of the Lord and Guru? ||6||

In their dreams at night, people wander around as long as they sleep;

just so, they are under the power of the snake Maya, as long as their hearts are filled with ego and duality.

Through the Guru's Teachings, they come to understand and see that this world is just a dream. ||7||

As thirst is quenched with water, and the baby is satisfied with mother's milk,

and as the lotus does not exist without water, and as the fish dies without water
