Serving the True Guru, one finds a lasting peace, the pains of birth and death are removed.
O Nanak, without serving the True Guru, they are bound and beaten in the City of Death, they arise and depart with blackened faces.
O Nanak, those who are attuned to Truth are not separated, serving the True Guru, they merge into the Lord.
Without serving the True Guru, one finds no place of rest, he dies, and is reincarnated, and continues coming and going.
Blessed, blessed is the Lord s devotee, my True Guru, serving Him, I have come to enshrine love for the Name of the Lord.
The entire creation is in fear, only the Dear Lord is fearless. Serving the True Guru, the Lord comes to dwell in the mind, and then, fear can never stay there.
