1011 : 874
The Perfect Guru is honored and celebrated; He has taken away the pains of my mind. ||2||

1011 : 875
I am the servant and slave of my Master; what glorious greatness of His can I describe?

1011 : 876
The Perfect Master, by the Pleasure of His Will, forgives, and then one practices Truth.

1011 : 877
I am a sacrifice to my Guru, who re-unites the separated ones. ||3||

1011 : 878
The intellect of His servant and slave is noble and true; it is made so by the Guru's intellect.

1011 : 879
The intuition of those who are true is beautiful; the intellect of the self-willed manmukh is insipid.

1011 : 880
My mind and body belong to You, God; from the very beginning, Truth has been my only support. ||4||

1011 : 881
In Truth I sit and stand; I eat and speak the Truth.

1011 : 882
With Truth in my consciousness, I gather the wealth of Truth, and drink in the sublime essence of Truth.

1011 : 883
In the home of Truth, the True Lord protects me; I speak the Words of the Guru's Teachings with love. ||5||

1011 : 884
The self-willed manmukh is very lazy; he is trapped in the wilderness.

1011 : 885
He is drawn to the bait, and continually pecking at it, he is trapped; his link to the Lord is ruined.

1011 : 886
By Guru's Grace, one is liberated, absorbed in the primal trance of Truth. ||6||

1011 : 887
His slave remains continually pierced through with love and affection for God.

1011 : 888
Without the True Lord, the soul of the false, corrupt person is burnt to ashes.

1011 : 889
Abandoning all evil actions, he crosses over in the boat of Truth. ||7||

1011 : 890
Those who have forgotten the Naam have no home, no place of rest.

1011 : 891
The Lord's slave renounces greed and attachment, and obtains the Lord's Name.

1011 : 892
If You forgive him, Lord, then He is united with You; Nanak is a sacrifice. ||8||4||

1011 : 893
Maaroo, First Mehl:

1011 : 894
The Lord's slave renounces his egotistical pride, through the Guru's Fear, intuitively and easily.

1011 : 895
The slave realizes his Lord and Master; glorious is his greatness!

1011 : 896
Meeting with his Lord and Master, he finds peace; His value cannot be desribed. ||1||

1011 : 897
I am the slave and servant of my Lord and Master; all glory is to my Master.

1011 : 898
By Guru's Grace, I am saved, in the Sanctuary of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

1011 : 899
The slave has been given the most excellent task, by the Primal Command of the Master.

1011 : 900
The slave realizes the Hukam of His Command, and submits to His Will forever.

1011 : 901
The Lord King Himself grants forgiveness; how glorious is His greatness! ||2||

1011 : 902
He Himself is True, and everything is True; this is revealed through the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

1011 : 903
He alone serves You, whom You have enjoined to do so.

1011 : 904
Without serving Him, no one finds Him; in duality and doubt, they are ruined. ||3||

1011 : 905
How could we forget Him from our minds? The gifts which he bestows increase day by day.

1011 : 906
Soul and body, all belong to Him; He infused the breath into us.

1011 : 907
If he shows His Mercy, then we serve Him; serving Him, we merge in Truth. ||4||

1011 : 908
He alone is the Lord's slave, who remains dead while yet alive, and eradicates egotism from within.

1011 : 909
His bonds are broken, the fire of his desire is quenched, and he is liberated.

1011 : 910
The treasure of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is within all, but how rare are those who, as Gurmukh, obtain it. ||5||

1011 : 911
Within the Lord's slave, there is no virtue at all; the Lord's slave is totally unworthy.

1011 : 912
There is no Giver as great as You, Lord; You alone are the Forgiver.

1011 : 913
Your slave obeys the Hukam of Your Command; this is the most excellent action. ||6||

1011 : 914
The Guru is the pool of nectar in the world-ocean; whatever one desires, that fruit is obtained.

1011 : 915
The treasure of the Naam brings immortality; enshrine it in your heart and mind.
