1087 : 4263
Meeting with a virtuous person, virtue is obtained, and one is immersed in the True Guru.

1087 : 4264
Priceless virtues are not obtained for any price; they cannot be purchased in a store.

1087 : 4265
O Nanak, their weight is full and perfect; it never decreases at all. ||1||

1087 : 4266
Fourth Mehl:

1087 : 4267
Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, they wander around, continually coming and going in reincarnation.

1087 : 4268
Some are in bondage, and some are set free; some are happy in the Love of the Lord.

1087 : 4269
O Nanak, believe in the True Lord, and practice Truth, through the lifestyle of Truth. ||2||

1087 : 4270
Pauree:

1087 : 4271
From the Guru, I have obtained the supremely powerful sword of spiritual wisdom.

1087 : 4272
I have cut down the fortress of duality and doubt, attachment, greed and egotism.

1087 : 4273
The Name of the Lord abides within my mind; I contemplate the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

1087 : 4274
Through Truth, self-discipline and sublime understanding, the Lord has become very dear to me.

1087 : 4275
Truly, truly, the True Creator Lord is all-pervading. ||1||

1087 : 4276
Shalok, Third Mehl:

1087 : 4277
Among the ragas, Kaydaaraa Raga is known as good, O Siblings of Destiny, if through it, one comes to love the Word of the Shabad,

1087 : 4278
and if one remains in the Soceity of the Saints, and enshrines love for the True Lord.

1087 : 4279
Such a person washes away the pollution from within, and saves his generations as well.

1087 : 4280
He gathes in the capital of virtue, and destroys and drives out unvirtuous sins.

1087 : 4281
O Nanak, he alone is known as united, who does not forsake his Guru, and who does not love duality. ||1||

1087 : 4282

Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, I am content; O Nanak, I blossom forth in the Name. ||2||

1087 : 4285
Fourth Mehl:

1087 : 4286
I get on board the boat and set out, but the ocean is churning with waves.

1087 : 4287
The boat of Truth encounters no obstruction, if the Guru gives encouragement.

1087 : 4288
He takes us across to the door on the other side, as the Guru keeps watch.

1087 : 4289
O Nanak, if I am blessed with His Grace, I shall go to His Court with honor. ||3||

1087 : 4290
Pauree:

1087 : 4291
Enjoy your kingdom of bliss; as Gurmukh, practice Truth.

1087 : 4292
Sitting upon the throne of Truth, the Lord administers justice; He unites us in Union with the Society of the Saints.

1087 : 4293
Meditating on the Lord, through the True Teachings, we become just like the Lord.

1087 : 4294
If the Lord, the Giver of peace, abides in the mind, in this world, then in the end, He becomes our help and support.

1087 : 4295
Love for the Lord wells up, when the Guru imparts understanding. ||2||

1087 : 4296
Shalok, First Mehl:

1087 : 4297
Confused and deluded, I wander around, but no one shows me the way.

1087 : 4298
I go and ask the clever people, if there is there anyone who can rid me of my pain.

1087 : 4299
If the True Guru abides within my mind, then I see the Lord, my best friend, there.

1087 : 4300
O Nanak, my mind is satisfied and fulfilled, contemplating the Praises of the True Name. ||1||

1087 : 4301
Third Mehl:

1087 : 4302
He Himself is the Doer, and He is the deed; He Himself issues the Command.

1087 : 4303
He Himself forgives some, and He Himself does the deed.

1087 : 4304
O Nanak, receiving the Divine Light from the Guru, suffering and corruption are burnt away, through the Name. ||2||

1087 : 4305
Pauree:

1087 : 4306
Don't be fooled by gazing at the riches of Maya, you foolish self-willed manmukh.

1087 : 4307
It shall not go along with you when you must depart; all the wealth you see is false.

1087 : 4308
The blind and ignorant do not understand, that the sword of death is hanging over their heads.

1087 : 4309
By Guru's Grace, those who drink in the sublime essence of the Lord are saved.
