596 : 30
Let your work be restraint from sin; only then will people call you blessed.

596 : 31
O Nanak, the Lord shall look upon you with His Glance of Grace, and you shall be blessed with honor four times over. ||4||2||

596 : 32
Sorat'h, First Mehl, Chau-Tukas:

596 : 33
The son is dear to his mother and father; he is the wise son-in-law to his father-in-law.

596 : 34
The father is dear to his son and daughter, and the brother is very dear to his brother.

596 : 35
By the Order of the Lord's Command, he leaves his house and goes outside, and in an instant, everything becomes alien to him.

596 : 36
The self-willed manmukh does not remember the Name of the Lord, does not give in charity, and does not cleanse his consciousness; his body rolls in the dust. ||1||

596 : 37
The mind is comforted by the Comforter of the Naam.

596 : 38
I fall at the Guru's feet - I am a sacrifice to Him; He has given me to understand the true understanding. ||Pause||

596 : 39
The mind is impressed with the false love of the world; he quarrels with the Lord's humble servant.

596 : 40
Infatuated with Maya, night and day, he sees only the worldly path; he does not chant the Naam, and drinking poison, he dies.

596 : 41
He is imbued and infatuated with vicious talk; the Word of the Shabad does not come into his consciousness.

596 : 42
He is not imbued with the Lord's Love, and he is not impressed by the taste of the Name; the self-willed manmukh loses his honor. ||2||

596 : 43
He does not enjoy celestial peace in the Company of the Holy, and there is not even a bit of sweetness on his tongue.

596 : 44
He calls his mind, body and wealth his own; he has no knowledge of the Court of the Lord.

596 : 45
Closing his eyes, he walks in darkness; he cannot see the home of his own being, O Siblings of Destiny.

596 : 46
Tied up at Death's door, he finds no place of rest; he receives the rewards of his own actions. ||3||

596 : 47
When the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, then I see Him with my own eyes; He is indescribable, and cannot be described.

596 : 48
With my ears, I continually listen to the Word of the Shabad, and I praise Him; His Ambrosial Name abides within my heart.

Continued...

596 : 49
He is Fearless, Formless and absolutely without vengeance; I am absorbed in His Perfect Light.

596 : 50
O Nanak, without the Guru, doubt is not dispelled; through the True Name, glorious greatness is obtained. ||4||3||

596 : 51
Sorat'h, First Mehl, Du-Tukas:

596 : 52
In the realm of land, and in the realm of water, Your seat is the chamber of the four directions.

596 : 53
Yours is the one and only form of the entire universe; Your mouth is the mint to fashion all. ||1||

596 : 54
O my Lord Master, Your play is so wonderful!

596 : 55
You are pervading and permeating the water, the land and the sky; You Yourself are contained in all. ||Pause||

596 : 56
Wherever I look, there I see Your Light, but what is Your form?

596 : 57
You have one form, but it is unseen; there is none like any other. ||2||

596 : 58
The beings born of eggs, born of the womb, born of the earth and born of sweat, all are created by You.

596 : 59
I have seen one glory of Yours, that You are pervading and permeating in all. ||3||

596 : 60
Your Glories are so numerous, and I do not know even one of them; I am such a fool - please, give me some of them!

596 : 61
Prays Nanak, listen, O my Lord Master: I am sinking like a stone - please, save me! ||4||4||

596 : 62
Sorat'h, First Mehl:

596 : 63
I am a wicked sinner and a great hypocrite; You are the Immaculate and Formless Lord.

596 : 64
Tasting the Ambrosial Nectar, I am imbued with supreme bliss; O Lord and Master, I seek Your Sanctuary. ||1||

596 : 65
O Creator Lord, You are the honor of the dishonored.

596 : 66
In my lap is the honor and glory of the wealth of the Name; I merge into the True Word of the Shabad. ||Pause||

596 : 67
You are perfect, while I am worthless and imperfect. You are profound, while I am trivial.
