:
4121
O my Dear Friend, You are my all-knowing companion; grant me the glory of Your True Name.
437
:
4122
O Nanak, the jewel of the Naam has been revealed to me; such are the Teachings I have received from the Guru. ||3||

:
4123
I have carefully applied the healing ointment to my eyes, and I am attuned to the Immaculate Lord.

4124
He is permeating my mind and body, the Life of the world, the Lord, the Great Giver.
437
