1751
O Siblings of Destiny, I have no other place to go.
58
:
1752
The Guru has given me the Treasure of the Wealth of the Naam; I am a sacrifice to Him. ||1||Pause||
58
:
1753
The Guru's Teachings bring honor. Blessed is He-may I meet and be with Him!
58
:
1754
Without Him, I cannot live, even for a moment. Without His Name, I die.
58
:
1755
I am blind-may I never forget the Naam! Under His Protection, I shall reach my true home. ||2||
58
:
1756
Those chaylaas, those devotees, whose spiritual teacher is blind, shall not find their place of rest.
58
:
1757
Without the True Guru, the Name is not obtained. Without the Name, what is the use of it all?
58
:
1758
People come and go, regretting and repenting, like crows in a deserted house. ||3||
58
:
1759
Without the Name, the body suffers in pain; it crumbles like a wall of sand.
58
:
1760
As long as Truth does not enter into the consciousness, the Mansion of the Lord's Presence is not found.
58
:
1761
Attuned to the Shabad, we enter our home, and obtain the Eternal State of Nirvaanaa. ||4||
58
:
1762
I ask my Guru for His Advice, and I follow the Guru's Advice.
58
:
1763
With the Shabads of Praise abiding in the mind, the pain of egotism is burnt away.
58
:
1764
We are intuitively united with Him, and we meet the Truest of the True. ||5||
58
:
1765
Those who are attuned to the Shabad are spotless and pure; they renounce sexual desire, anger, selfishness and conceit.
58
:
1766
They sing the Praises of the Naam, forever and ever; they keep the Lord enshrined within their hearts.
58
:
1767
How could we ever forget Him from our minds? He is the Support of all beings. ||6||
58
:
1768
One who dies in the Shabad is beyond death, and shall never die again.
58
:
1769
Through the Shabad, we find Him, and embrace love for the Name of the Lord.
58
:
1770
Without the Shabad, the world is deceived; it dies and is reborn, over and over again. ||7||

1771
All praise themselves, and call themselves the greatest of the great.
58
:
1772
Without the Guru, one's self cannot be known. By merely speaking and listening, what is accomplished?
58
:
1773
O Nanak, one who realizes the Shabad does not act in egotism. ||8||8||
58
:
1774
Siree Raag, First Mehl:
58
:
1775
Without her Husband, the soul-bride's youth and ornaments are useless and wretched.
58
:
1776
She does not enjoy the pleasure of His Bed; without her Husband, her ornaments are absurd.
58
:
1777
The discarded bride suffers terrible pain; her Husband does not come to the bed of her home. ||1||
58
:
1778
O mind, meditate on the Lord, and find peace.
58
:
1779
Without the Guru, love is not found. United with the Shabad, happiness is found. ||1||Pause||
58
:
1780
Serving the Guru, she finds peace, and her Husband Lord adorns her with intuitive wisdom.
58
:
1781
Truly, she enjoys the Bed of her Husband, through her deep love and affection.
58
:
1782
As Gurmukh, she comes to know Him. Meeting with the Guru, she maintains a virtuous lifestyle. ||2||
58
:
1783
Through Truth, meet your Husband Lord, O soul-bride. Enchanted by your Husband, enshrine love for Him.
58
:
1784
Your mind and body shall blossom forth in Truth. The value of this cannot be described.
58
:
1785
The soul-bride finds her Husband Lord in the home of her own being; she is purified by the True Name. ||3||
58
:
1786
If the mind within the mind dies, then the Husband ravishes and enjoys His bride.
58
:
1787
They are woven into one texture, like pearls on a necklace around the neck.
58
:
1788
In the Society of the Saints, peace wells up; the Gurmukhs take the Support of the Naam. ||4||
58
:
1789
In an instant, one is born, and in an instant, one dies. In an instant one comes, and in an instant one goes.
58
:
1790
One who recognizes the Shabad merges into it, and is not afflicted by death.
