In the pure, immaculate waters, both the lotus and the slimy scum are found.
O mind, love the Lord, as the lotus loves the water. Tossed about by the waves, it still blossoms with love.
Prays Nanak, please hear my prayer, You are the pool, and You are the soul-swan. You are the lotus flower of the day and You are the water-lily of the night. You Yourself behold them, and blossom forth in bliss.
