I heard of the Guru, and so I went to Him.

74 : 2399
He instilled within me the Naam, the goodness of charity and true cleansing.

74 : 2400
All the world is liberated, O Nanak, by embarking upon the Boat of Truth. ||11||

74 : 2401
The whole Universe serves You, day and night.

74 : 2402
Please hear my prayer, O Dear Lord.

74 : 2403
I have thoroughly tested and seen all-You alone, by Your Pleasure, can save us. ||12||

74 : 2404
Now, the Merciful Lord has issued His Command.

74 : 2405
Let no one chase after and attack anyone else.

74 : 2406
Let all abide in peace, under this Benevolent Rule. ||13||

74 : 2407
Softly and gently, drop by drop, the Ambrosial Nectar trickles down.

74 : 2408
I speak as my Lord and Master causes me to speak.

74 : 2409
I place all my faith in You; please accept me. ||14||

74 : 2410
Your devotees are forever hungry for You.

74 : 2411
O Lord, please fulfill my desires.

74 : 2412
Grant me the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, O Giver of Peace. Please, take me into Your Embrace. ||15||

74 : 2413
I have not found any other as Great as You.

74 : 2414
You pervade the continents, the worlds and the nether regions;

74 : 2415
You are permeating all places and interspaces. Nanak: You are the True Support of Your devotees. ||16||

74 : 2416
I am a wrestler; I belong to the Lord of the World.

74 : 2417
I met with the Guru, and I have tied a tall, plumed turban.

74 : 2418
All have gathered to watch the wrestling match, and the Merciful Lord Himself is seated to behold it. ||17||

Continued...

74 : 2419
The bugles play and the drums beat.

74 : 2420
The wrestlers enter the arena and circle around.

74 : 2421
I have thrown the five challengers to the ground, and the Guru has patted me on the back. ||18||

74 : 2422
All have gathered together,

74 : 2423
but we shall return home by different routes.

74 : 2424
The Gurmukhs reap their profits and leave, while the self-willed manmukhs lose their investment and depart. ||19||

74 : 2425
You are without color or mark.

74 : 2426
The Lord is seen to be manifest and present.

74 : 2427
Hearing of Your Glories again and again, Your devotees meditate on You; they are attuned to You, O Lord, Treasure of Excellence. ||20||

74 : 2428
Through age after age, I am the servant of the Merciful Lord.

74 : 2429
The Guru has cut away my bonds.

74 : 2430
I shall not have to dance in the wrestling arena of life again. Nanak has searched, and found this opportunity. ||21||2||29||

74 : 2431
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

74 : 2432
Siree Raag, First Mehl, Pehray, First House:

74 : 2433
In the first watch of the night, O my merchant friend, you were cast into the womb, by the Lord's Command.

74 : 2434
Upside-down, within the womb, you performed penance, O my merchant friend, and you prayed to your Lord and Master.

74 : 2435
You uttered prayers to your Lord and Master, while upside-down, and you meditated on Him with deep love and affection.

74 : 2436
You came into this Dark Age of Kali Yuga naked, and you shall depart again naked.

74 : 2437
As God's Pen has written on your forehead, so it shall be with your soul.

74 : 2438
Says Nanak, in the first watch of the night, by the Hukam of the Lord's Command, you enter into the womb. ||1||
