O Nanak, there is no other than the Lord and Master; greatness comes from Your Name. ||2||

688 : 1134
You are the True Creator Lord, the unknowable Maker.

688 : 1135
There is only the One Lord and Master, but there are two paths, by which conflict increases.

688 : 1141
They chant the Ambrosial Word of His Bani, savoring it with their tongues.

688 : 1142
Savoring it with their tongues, they thirst for the Naam; they are a sacrifice to the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

688 : 1143
Touching the philosopher's stone, they become the philosopher's stone, which transforms lead into gold; O Lord, they become pleasing to your mind.

688 : 1144

688 : 1146
I am hungry and thirsty for wealth; how will I be able to go to the Lord's Court?
